Default Newbie here with the turbo thing

I was wondering how much horses i can get with a turbo kit. I have a 93 sc 5sp Bone stock. It has good acceleration but it can be better imo. How much do they usually run? Or are there any other ways i can get more power out of this thing.

Yesterday a corvette came beside me and over took me on the street so i sped up and he sped up. I was running with the vette (which was an automatic) but If i had more power i could of def went around him was fun tho lol

most kits in the $3000-$4500 range you can expect mid 300's HP. a basic kit would be less. try Boost logic. they have the best looking, and most complete NA-T kit in my honnest opinion.
