custom turbo kit

[Coutts]

lookin into building a custom turbo kit. my budget is going to be like $1500 - $2000. My goal is 200whp at first buy then i will upgrade my internals and go for somewhere in the 300-350swhp. What kind of turbo would you suggest i get?

i see that ur 16, i hope u have a nice paying job or ur parents feed u money otherwise i would save up plenty of money beforehand.

my kit consisted of greddy turbo/manifold kteller dp, the rest was random junk from ebay. installed and tuned on hondata for 2300$ (altogether)

do what bboygreddy said

get a GOOD turbo + manifold and then ebay the intercooler and rest of parts.
also get a good turbo timer.
he paid $2300 but I am almost 9234% sure you can find all the parts for <2000.

The tuning part brings the price up
