It would cost you about $950 plust the cost of an efi computer, around $500 for a cheap or S/H one.

The local backyard mechanic can install a bolt on kit, check in the for sale section, I think there is one for sale.

$950 is for the whole setup not just a turbo. which is a very good price.

Yeah but piazza motors are crap I would prefer to turbo the standard motor over a piazza motor any day. Mainly due to parts.
