Not a good first post man. Go to the FI section of this forum and read up. Ask questions after you have read everything. Expect to spend anywhere from $5000 and up. That's just for the kit, not including installation. Then if you want big power, you'll be spending twice (or more) than what you did for the kit+install. That's not including supporting mods. Gotta learn to crawl before you walk, and walk before you run.

Where are you in Hawaii?

You got an "Easy button" to hook him with as well? He'll probably be looking for one in his next post.

^ Exactly. It's his first post... he shoulda used it to introduce himself to the community. He coulda used the search function or surfed around the forum a little... he didn't put any effort forward to at least try and find an answer to one of the most answered questions asked on this forum.

OP, sorry if I sound like an ***, but it's the truth. Here, read this, it should help with all your questions you're gonna have...

hey, Casanova........if someone is too lazy to do research on their own about something as complicated as FI, that's someone that doesn't deserve FI in the first place.

It's not something you can just buy a kit, have it installed, and drive along without knowing anything about how the kits work or the possible problems.

Now, as to his question, yes, if he had spent 5 mins searchign, or even LOOKING AT VENDORS WEBSITES his questions could have been answered.

Like was said before, I also don't help those who won't help themselves first.

here is a kit that will go on stock.

dunno how much you'd spend on installation. i am guessing you will need install because you seem to not know much about this. if you can install this yourself, you see the price and it will cost you probably a couple days of work as well.

What the heck???? That looks like something off of Mad Max. That is quite an elaborate network of piping. The photo inside the car, is that (2) small turbos mounted approx in the passinger area? I am guessing this isnt the car you take grandma to church in.

Well I know who I am calling to install my Turbo. Sharrif's gotta run for his money now.

I think having a couple of turbos in the passenger side might be nice here in the Winter time in Colorado to keep me warm. Damn, I wish I had thought of that one!
