10000 to 35000 is a big difference.... probably no more than 5k

I think $10,000 would be a fair price.

hah! $10k for everything. What, are you high?

It doesn't matter if it comes from Japan or from Kenya...it's more or less the same thing, and NONE of them are worth $10k for that stuff alone (unless there's more of a car wrapped around it than we know).

Engines are about say $3k, tranny, $1k, harness $1k (I think), and an ECU you can get for about $100. NO more than about 5-6k, IMO, considering that all you're REALLY getting is the JDM turbos, but even then, just go single for cheaper, probably.

OH, and tha'ts for new/rebuilt stuff, not with any mileage on them (except for the ECU, but what's miles on something with no moving parts that's not subjected to heat/cold?)

hehe, I do think going single is gonna make things cheaper.

If anything it will make things more expensive cause with a single, your most likely going to have to get a new IC, and a new fuel system. Plus the kit itself ranges from $2500-$3200 for single turbo setup's.

With the Bolt-on JDM turbo's, you won't really need anything like that cause honestly, its just a faster spool and a more solid 6000+ rpms range.
