go to google and type turbo and many places to buy kits will pop up...a few sites are summitracing.com greddy.com...I use DC header(s) and they r fine for my set-up (sadly not turbo'd) but a lot of people suggest kamicaze or however its spelled... you will problem get flamed too by some of the people on here but good luck with the turbo

Headers - 1-2hp if you are lucky.

Turbo - about 60hp depending on boost.

yeah prob about 70whp gain on turbo at about 8psi. and I've heard that HP headers give the largest gain for our cars.

DEFINITELY go with the SF turbo kit. It's, I believe, $3,100 for a complete kit that puts you at around 185whp (thats WHEEL hp). You can also get upgrades to the kit, for extra money, that can bump it up as high as your internals can take.
