The Hahn kit seems like its the most common kit used. I just cant see spending $3500 on a turbo kit when I could purchase a gst for almost that much. Any other way of doing this?Maybe purchase individual parts?
 
You can buy all the parts on your own and it will be cheaper, or watch the classifieds on here and 2GNT and you'll find people selling turbo kits for much less than a new hahn kit too.
 
You can put together a nice kit for $2000. If you can't justify spending AT LEAST that much, then don't turbo your car.
 
In my opinion this is the best deal I have seen for turbo'ing a 420a yet and If i'm not really happy with my nitrous build this is what I will be buying:

eBay Motors: ECLIPSE TALON 95-99 420A TURBO KIT CAST MANIFOLD T3/T4 (item 260205682959 end time Jan-28-08 17:29:23 PST)

ONly thing you would need is a fcd and a fmu and you would be set.
Opinions on this kit. Looking to rebuild and minues whale go turbo if I can throw this cheap sucker on there. I remember there were some crap made in china imitation turbos going for cheap on ebay for a while-- is this that?
 
you get what you pay for. if anything stick to the turbo kit for a grand build thread that they posted it uses name brand parts and make your own kit from that i dont trust ebay
 
Just build your own kit. Buy a turbo and the exhaust manifold and go from there...
 
another kit you might be interested in is the treadstone kit, im using theres as well as many others its a well put together a kit and havent had any complaints out of it.

i think theres been a few turbo kits for sale on 2gnt.com you might wanna check them out
