    For ours, my dad did the machining and his buddy did the welding. So, around 30 bucks in materials.

    these are some really nice set-ups guys... i dont understand how you all pay for them though. i work two jobs, go to school and i still cant even afford a "stage 1 kit" let alone piece a kit together. all of my money goes in my cars thats left over from bills and insurance. sometimes, i cant even afford groceries b/c i spent too much money on the whip . Good thing im a chef or id starve...you guys must be some rich mo-fo's cause i honestly do not understand how people can afford this hobby.
    but to you guys who can make it happen...some of us can only dream....

    im a school teacher by trade, but the only way i could afford to put my stage 1 on was to use my bio background and get a summer research position at the University of Arizona. that allowed me to get my stuff.

    i waited about 2 years to be able to do it. it'll come for you. give it time.

    I just graduated high school, made good grades all through-out, play soccer 5 days a week 75% of the year, and have been working since last summer and have been saving. I will admit I was given an advantage over most as I was given my car when I turned 16 by my parents becuase I had an arrangement with my parents that stated if I played soccer, I wouldn't have time for a job(I didn't untill this year when I did a co-op program), so they would get me a car(I got my moms old car). BUT, my soccer/grades are paying 13,000 a year of my college so in the end I guess I saved my parents money. But back to my original point, I have been working for over a year and saving my money, and once I sell my aba turbo rabbit I bought earlier this year, I will have enough money for the kinetic stg III plus a bunch of other goodies. My goal is 300 WHP, which my set-up will easily reach, but I am not cheaping out anywhere becuase this car has to last me through college then afterwords untill I can get on my feet. Sorry for the long life-story, but its all about hard work and dedication.

    Yea hardwork and a good paying job pays off..one huge plus for me was being able to fab my own parts and although i dont weld.. my girlfriends dad and brother ( machinists ..the whole basment in their home is a machcine shop ) really helps out with cutting down on the costs of things on a project like a turbo car...

  29. 06-16-2007 08:25 AM #169
    you guys are very lucky! i have two jobs, work 60+ hrs EVERY week and i still cant fund this project. Why? b/c of beer, women, food, and bills. oh, and did i mention i still live my parents? yea... the 'rents lost their jobs after 30 years of commitment b/c "corporate" took over. so guess who pays the bills?

  30. 06-16-2007 09:01 AM #170

    man, everyones setup is nice on here... it makes me jealous, almost everyone has a t04, and all i have is my t3/t04 running only 7 psi currently..

    Garrett t3/t04 57 trim
    c2 8.5:1 head spacer
    forge 007 dv
    c2 42# program
    it is intercooled

    i have no boost controller as of right now and only have a .5 bar spring in my wastegate. I want to run 15 psi when all is said and done... i'm not sure where that will put me at all, anyone have any ideas?
