My friend reminded me of all the majesties of turbonating a car, so i am sooo confused on what I want to do. I mean the rims I have already are sweet and look great, and they arn't that small. This is what we were thinking.
Get a turbo now, and wheels later in summer right before I have to replace the tires I have on them now......
Let me know what you think Iether way, they are both happening by fall...

turbo would be cool but it is costly and lot of work getting everything to gether and getting it together.
give someone money and they get confused.

a turbo kit for our cars at this time is a custom setup. no kits available. even exploited stop carrying crap and they have huge leadtimes.

you could always start by doing the mods that complement a turbo first, like a header and whatever small bolt on's go with a turbo, then get the rims. so you have a few performance mods at least

Headers kinda pointless if a turbo is your goal. Your just going to replace it with a turbo manifold when your ready to do the turbo.
