Not to mention that if you can find the parts, the 2004? and up Saab 9^3 has a Turbo Ecotec.

^agree with ppgnut. hahn racecraft is the way to go.
and www.j-body.org (http://www.j-body.org) has an entire section dedicated to boost, as well as tuning. great site and resource for us 4-cylinder guys.

I've read that the automatic trans gets in the way of the piping. Not sure how true that is though.

There's also probably more room in the engine bay of the Alero for the piping than in a cavalier. Only thing I didn't really like with the hahn kit is the appearance.

K, I have done a ton of research lately and here's some help.

Hahn does NOT make a kit for us if you have an auto. And maybe you could coerse them into selling you one but they wouldn't support it.

If you are on a budget.

T3/T4 57 trim------174.98 (ebay)
Intercooler---------100.00(ebay)
Manifold------------???.?? Probably custom
Wastegate---------???.??(I will get mine free)
BOV----------------???.??(also free)
Downpipe-----------1-200.00 (custom)
Oil lines-------------80.00
Charge Pipes--------150-200.00
Fuel Pump-----------70.00
Injectors------------80-300.00
Tune----------------Depends, but I got quoted 200-300

I figure with everything it would run 1500-2000.

From everything I have looked at, the best way seems to be to build your own kit, good luck.

I have a manual alero but would I need to upgrade my pistons and other internals if I turbo'd my car??

hahnracecraft.com Internals don't need to be upgraded as long as you stay at roughly 250ish HP or less. There are plenty of people proving that wrong, but I am not gonna recommend you go for 300+ and blow your motor : )
