abt 3g for just the turbo kit, then ecu=1400 fuel system, roughly550 bux...then ic is abt 1300...

so your looking @ abt 6k, not including the fact you should have a streetported engine for max results form the turbo
goin single isnt cheap

I think he said for everything. 3 grand will only cover the Turbo kit itself. Then you need to buy upgraded fuel pump and injectors. Possibly a custom fuel rail as well. So figure at least 650 in parts just for fuel components. Now engine management. About the least expensive route would be the APEX PFC. Thats 1200 bucks without tuning. Figure another 200 tuned or dyno time to tune. What about labor? You goin to install everything yourself? If not you can figure about 1000+ to install everything min. It would be safe to say 6 grand would cover most of it. But dont forget it doesnt stop there. Depending on how much boost your going to run you can expect to need bigger wider wheels and tires. The stock sizes barley do the job when its bone stock HP levels. For a good wheel tire set your running a min of 2500 and as high as 4k. What about an upgraded clutch. The stock one wont hold the power your going to be running with a single turbo. Figure another 800 for a clutch kit/flywheel and another 400 for labor to install it. Wait we are only getting started. How do you think your goin to cool that Big air charge from that Monster turbo? Not from the stock intercooler your not. Lets just go with a stock mount Med size intercooler with piping and elbow. Hows 1600 for that. Thats what the M2 med will cost with the elbow. Thats not hard to install but if you pay someone to do it your talking at least 60 bucks or more. Ok now thats just the neccesities. Never mind all the other things you will want to do in addition. So lets add it all up. I come up with 11-14 grand. And thats not even goin crazy. And if you want it to perform you need to do the rest of the exhaust and do some suspension work to get rid of wheel hop/ Gap.Upgraded Radiator/AST, oil coolers etc etc. It could easily run up to 20 grand before you know it. For many the initial cost isnt as bad because many do upgrades up to the point they go for the single turbo kit. But from bonestock to single turbo the cost is tremendous. Hope I helped answer your question. And I like the XS T04s kit myself.

93REDFD: Im at the beggining of going bone stock to single turbo I think its well worth it (shooting for 450 rwhp). Dont be scared off by the cost its roughly 10-12k in parts if you do the labor yourself (That price includes a highly recommended rebuild and street port ~2500 from a reputable shop). Let me know if you have any questions.

Yeah jasons kit is good except id wanna change the 1300cc injectors to 1600. There have been several people talking about the 1300s maxing out with the T04S. Oh and there is also the cost of installation and tuning.

Delta-

You can do that. I have people do things like this all the time. They start with a specific stage, and swap parts left and right.

I charge the difference, then give a discount.

I noticed on the store's site that it said you could swap out parts for others.
