You'll need to have a manifold made or your stock one modified and a good T25, T28 or T3 would suffice. But there's much more to turbocharging than just slapping on a turbo as I'm sure you're aware of that.

Oh really, im new to imports how much do u think i can get a turbo setup installed and everything for?

depending on what you plan to accomplish, a low budget turbo kit should be just that, low budget. dont expect your car to be the fastest out there. how much milage u got on there? what shape is the engine in? theres a lot of work involved in a turbo setup, and maybe it would serve u better to save it for the next car you acquire, but hey, its your money. and it can be very expensive, just to let u know.

If you're thinking about turbochraging a GA16I, stop thinking! it's a total waste and you will lose more than you gain and that is guaranteed.

I guess use a 50 shot of drugs and enjoy. Can all be had under a grand.
