This is pretty much the same question as you asked in your older thread... so I would expect some of the same answers.

More like "Which products should I make?"There is no turbo manifold (exhaust) that is known to fit on an N-body Quad 4 due to the steering rack. I've seen one custom fabricated one, it flips the turbo up instead, but requires more hood clearance. (the owner fiberglassed a custom hood) You'll also need to fabricate all charge piping, downpipe, exhaust, etc.

What to buy? Well, for starters..
-exhaust flange (to fab turbo manifold from)
-turbo flange (to fab turbo manifold from)
-new pistons, to lower the high compression ratio on your HO
-various lengths and angles of piping
-Apexi S-AFC + MSD DIS-2 + FMU (cheap / harder to tune properly) or Electromotive Tec-2 or Tec-3 (expensive / much better to tune properly)
-other fuel components depending on your selection of components... including bigger injectors (RC makes larger ones) bigger or inline-booster fuel pump.
-intercooler (not required, but highly recommended)

There's nothing easy about this. If you have any doubt to your fabrication skills (including metal and welding) or a limited budget, this is not a mod for you.
