In all fairness a turbo kit for your car is $4000+, a turbo upgrade for an X is less than half that, even with injectors and a tune! You know if there was a $1500 upgraded turbo you'd be all over it!

Gains for the price is why we own these cars. I wouldn't mod a BMW or Audi either.

Actually I probably wouldnt, just do to how I know modded cars go. Im at a safe point right now that I dont need any more power because I dont want the headache that goes along with it. haha

Im getting old. Carry on hehe.

When you add up all the stuff you put into mitsus, its not just 1500... You planned to run a stockish setup scheides, until your motor went. Its a never ending battle.
