this has been overdone....trust me....i know...

it's not going to be cheap, ur looking at a min of about 1500-2000 and with that money u could build up a badass turbo kit and make more power out of it....thats actually what i decided to do instead of my ls/v swap...but if your heart set on it...heres a pretty good writeup:

LS/VTEC
read up a lot on it before you do/buy anything....this isn't a weekend job....everything must be done properly to get it running well...o well hope this helped

 

tanx u say with 1500-2000 i could boost my ls and have more power any idea as what kind of turbo should i go with

 

its all up to u....there is a million things....currently what im lookin at is the garrett t3/t4 hybrid....the t28's are nice...in the end it's all up to several deciding factors

- how much $$ do u wanna spend *you can do it with 2000, but the more the better*
- how much pwr r u looking to make
- how much stuff are you doing beyond just the turbo
- carb laws?, how bad are they in ur area
- do you want to spool up instantly but not make great top end...or do you wanna make great top end w/ a lot of turbo lag
- do you wanna keep AC?
- how up to date is the maitenance on ur car?

all of these are huge factors when ur going for a turbo....it's stuff i've been looking into for a couple weeks now....i have the money to do it....but i wanna do it right....i suggest you do the same

basically a lot of it requires you to do heavy research and learning about the turbo setup in general.... a few great sites to start out with...
