Turbo and W-A intercooler. $1500-2000

Okay that's 2 parts...

Custom high grade SS headers. I'm sure they are well over $1000.

Substitute MSDS for $600.

Modified stock ones for $300. (unless you have a welder and some skill which you damn well better have if thinking about a project like this!)

High grade SS piping. $500+

Aluminized for $250-300

All the other parts would basically be the same.


So I could see a kit using mild steel headers and aluminized piping for $4000. Including a large roll of thermal wrap of course.


Now maybe 3000-3500 if you built it yourself and used at least moderate quality parts.

Heck maybe even as low as $2500 but that's scraping the bottom.

The intercooler is by far the largest expenditure. The core is expensive but building the IC is not cheap either.
I can weld fairly decent but I don't think I'd trust myself torching a $700 core.
