For 2800+a little extra, you can buy a jspec and rebuild it. That would be way easier and cheaper to do than to slap a turbo kit on a NA.

Im in the middle of doing a turbo swap myself, so far ive spent:

1800 motor+harness+ecu.
300 driveshaft + lsd diff+ halfshafts
125 N370 afm and boost sensor

Hopefully i wont need a rebuild but if i do that would put me back another 1800.

unless you are really attached to your car or really want a project, buy a Turbo II in decent shape. It will save you a lot of trouble and it might even save you money...

It won't fit. That kit is for a TII.

There are no turbo kits for the NA cars.
