If you are looking for a new kit, you can get the 62-1 kit from the RX-7 store for $1999. For the cost vs. power, I would get the BNR Stage 3's. Rich made around 420rwhp at 17.5lbs I think. Also, if you don't care to get a used kit, you can pick them up all day long in the for sale section for under $2000.

You can if you piece it together yourself. Turbo $700, wastegate $300, down pipe and manifold $600, misc gaskets, oil lines, etc $200? My first single only cost me $1500.

I am under $1500.00 so far with my T04R. Your going to spend more if you buy a kit rather than piece one together IMO.

ssautochrome manifold and 50mm wastegate, gt40/t04r or something in that size range. oil lines from your local hose shop, and have a muffler shop build a downpipe...

$16-1700ish and you're good to go.
