Gotta control boost, timing, fuel etc. Then you have to build the extended drive train to handle the power (axels, tranny, etc)

Unless you have ALOT of free time, money, and patience just buy a turbo

Fast-cheap-reliable... You can only choose two

well you replied to my reply on that other turbo kit. and the one I am talking about in THIS thread is one I found localy. it needs a whole lot more to get it running, whereas the one that I found on ebay has everything except injectors. I know there's much more to a boosted car than just the manifold, the turbo, and intercooler. my camaro is going to get a supercharger and I've already riped apart the axle, replaced the driveshaft. and the tranny is getting trashed in favor for a t56, I know superchargers just not good with turbos. i asked about this other kit because I found a pt shell that I might pick up but instead of supercharged I want to go turbocharged in it
