So, what's your mechanical background? What are your hp goals? And what are your long term goals for the car? What have you done to the car for prep and what kind of budget are you working with?

i have no mechanical backround so i would need someone to install it. i want it to be around 320-350. I'm working with a 2,000 dollar budget and i havent preped the car for anything yet.

You can forget turbo with a 2k budget. That's not even a quarter of what your gonna need to get started. Any "good" turbo kit is gonna start at 5k. Then install is gonna be around 2k. Then your gonna need to have it tuned. And then your gonna need to buy boost gauges, boost controller, and all that jazz. On top of that, your gonna need to upgrade the torque converter and tranny, that alone is 2k minimum. And you should upgrade your suspension and brakes to handle the extra power safely.

I would suggest you either save up atleast 10-15k before going this route, or consider a good cold air intake, exhaust and header, then invest in an upgraded programmable ECU system and get na tuned, or sell your car and buy one that has a turbo on it already, or is in the hp range your looking for.
