you really dont have to pay $500 for a turbo man. I paid $450 for a slightly used SC61.... fucking bad ass turbos!

"essentials" to me are these:
-turbo
-turbo manifold
-piping/DP
-BOV
-WG
-IC
-oil lines
-vacuum lines
-hose clamps
-pipe connectors
-bigger injectors
-management
-higher output fuel pump
-timer
-boost gauge
-EGT gauge
-oil pressure gauge

the above can get pretty expensive. most kits out there for Hondas use FMU's.... which is really lame. if you put a kit together, just take your time to look around. patience is virtue. i spent about $3200 on my last set-up that i pieced together with all quality products. it was a great street system and i hit over 300whp at 9 psi on a stock JDM ITR motor. that wasnt even at the 80% efficiency of the turbo set-up yet.
