This guy says it will fit an sc430


???

 

Of course it will fit, it will fit on any car.

You just need an exhaust manifold that bolt up.

 

So how much would the whole setup cost me??

and is it a good price for 250$

 

That depends on how good you want your car to run, anywhere from $1000 (car barely works) to $30,000 (runs like a dream).

 

Seriously, I have seen a Turbo SC430 (2) and every one of them was custom made, meaining you will spend money to get it running right. I know of one place the created a running and I mean smoking the tires to the asphalt 2 twin turbo GS, SRT here in maryland. Good luck !

 

The turbo is the least of your worries. If your price picking over $250. How much do you think the rest is going to cost. Plus engine and gearbox build.

You was having trouble removing the trunk struts how you going to fit a turbo

 

How about a custom made chrome logo for front of car and back of car TURBO ON BOARD

 

since all of yall are gonna make fun of me.. cause im car illiterate..

Nevermind then

 

Rahstyles,

Don't mind the guys having a little fun at your expense.

However, the question you ask kind of begs for a little bit of ribbing.

When it comes to outfitting a turbo onto a car that's normally aspirated (doesn't have a turbo to begin with), if you have to ask questions about it (like how to do it, how much it'll cost, parts list, etc), you don't have the technical knowledge to attempt it.

I don't mean that as any kind of an insult.

I understand the basics of how a turbo works. I understand the fundamental difference between a turbo and a supercharger...and I know the similarities...and I would NEVER even CONSIDER trying to add a turbo to my car. Not because I don't want one, want the power, or don't have the money...I don't have the detailed knowledge...I don't have the skill.

There are a few turbo kits available...a very few...for some of the more common engines. The kit provides every little piece you will need (and there are A LOT of little pieces to make it work properly) and step-by-step instructions on how to do it.

The SC430 is a fairly low-production car...and it's not really a "tuner car" so, there simply is no such kit for our cars. Every turbocharged SC430 on the road was one-of-a-kind built, by someone who's retrofitted turbos many times before.

 

Yea.. i figured.. i would be in way over my head if i tried to get that.. since i had a hard time fixing the trunk struts.. i just wanted to ask anyway

 

aquanuke:

Your killing me. I can't stop laughing. Trunk struts to a turbo.

 

No body made fun of you here, we all answered your questions truthfully.

 

I agree with what most of the others said. The amount of money required to make a reliable turbo setup is in the thousands. Turbos, in and of themselves, are relatively cheap. It's everything else that inflates the final cost. I have friends who know do this stuff as a hobby (in other words, zero labor costs) and even then, it costs thousands.

But you know what they say, "You got to pay to play."

Stick to the easier stuff, like intake/header/exhaust. I think you'll be satisfied with the amount of performance those three alone will provide.
