hey guys, i just recently purchased an AUIII XR6 ST and i dont have much clue about what is required with converting it to a turbo, just for a bit of added power. what else do i need to purchase to make it efficient and maintain well? is there any one out there that might be able to assist me.

If you want a professional job.. start with $10K and then add a bit more.
Jim Mock Motorsport are now doing turbo packages, drive in, drive out. Engineering certificate will be on top of that though.

I agree call the mocks. They have everything sorted and will do a drive in drive out deal. There isnt much point in cutting costs if you want to do things right.
