Whats up guys? Im looking into getting a turbo kit for my s14 which has a ka24de in it. Im not looking into getting crazy hp but just enough to have fun with it. What a good turbo kit? what are other things i should do before getting a turbo kit.? Money is a problem so i cant go all out.:(
Any help will be great!!! :bigthumbu

Before you go boost, make sure your motor is healthy enough to sustain boost. Even if you aren't going to be making high HP, a turbo can kill an unhealthy motor, or a motor on its last limbs...

Going with a kit will be kind of expensive. You can try to piece together a kit from buying parts here and there, it would be cheaper than buying a whole kit.

Steer away from Ebay kits, the manifolds sometimes crack and the turbos aren't all that great from cheap materials.
Make sure to have a good tune, update your fuel delivery system, and cooling system to match the extra demand from running boost.

Edit: Turbo can sometimes = Unreliability so if money is an issue, you may want to wait until times are better... But if you have a DD then go for it.

If your in a budget of 1k you shouldn't even think about it. To do it properly will cost you over that. And assuming since your asking, you dont have a clue on tunning a turbo car. So on top of engine management (lets say you use the cheapest Method an SAFC $200 or less) and then tunning is also a couple hundred. Thats about 4-500 right there for that. Now start adding prices of parts. It's not cheap.

bro if you bearly have money for just a kit then dont even get one right now.
fuel managment is a must and that shits money too so slow down do some research and save up your money, do it right, no rushes!
