roughly how much would it cost to put a turbo kit on a gu, wanting a decent setup, something will make 150kw or so. any recommendations and prices wouldbe handy

I'd be expectin cheaper than 10k for 150 flywheel... isnt that round 100/110 at wheels?..

10k should get you 150rwkw at least

I assume everyone is assuming its a diesel?????

The latest 4wd action has an article on a 1HZ being turbo'd and it cost $8250 :shock: :shock: , thats more than my petrol turbo cost, :shock: :shock:

Deisel is sooooo much easier and to get a shop to do a basic install shouldnt be more than 5-6 grand, plus you will prob need a new heavy duty clutch, $1400 ish.
