Just for fun.... clutch, intercooler, turbo, wastegate, blow off valve, intercooler piping, manifold for turbo including cross over pipe with flexys assuming you are using one turbo only, ecu/osirus etc, fuel injectors, fuel pump, downpipe, wideband probably, MAF/MAP adapter, new intake, ideally rods and pistons, turbo oil lines and drain to the sump with custom adapters, expect $10-15,000 to do it properly ie the engine doesn't turn into an excessively large paper weight.

Why are you hinging your whole build around one part? I don't know a ton about forced induction, but I feel like it would be a bit easier to just buy a kit that's made to work together. Is piecing it together something people do because of one super awesome part?

No its not. It is a nice turbo but it is no better than many others that various vendors are offering. The garett GT series is many many years old now. A premade kit would be heaps easier but sometimes it is cheaper to make it yourself, most of the time its not.

went ahead and bolded the part that makes you retarded and why you need to spend another 6 months reading before even trying to build your own kit since i cant bold "budget" in your title. then if you still dont understand why thats pointless then just ditch trying a turbo kit period. oh yah also add about 2-3k on top of a normal build because your trying to build a kit vs buy a pre made one.

a 6765 with .96 starts boosting at 2200 and sees 20 psi at 4k if he wanted a low to mid range quick spooling setup he should go with a 6266 with .81 ar and make boost damn near off idle. or one of the divided t4 housings and a qsv and he would spool pretty much just as quick and not be choking the car again a t3 on this car is useless and unneeded

honestly man it wont be cheap ask anyone on this thread and we can tell you from first hand experience
i understand you want to kinda get a price in your head
i wouldnt try to put together a kit and cut corners unless you fully understand how forced induction works
so for starters look at complete kit for pricing for your key components on what you need most have a part list
+1
if your serious about forced induction this is a good kit for ya
I AGREE
ive always said when building a car there are 3 key factors
CHEAP
FAST
RELIABLE
now only pick 2 of those and it leaves you with what you'll be missing
cheap and fast ? then u cant have reliable
Fast and reliable ? it wont be cheap
