for a d series, nothing except building and turboing it will benefit you any. the only thing you can do to gain maybe 5hp is a cold air intake, headers and exhaust, and intake manifold.

All-in all, your going to spend roughly $500+ on all that, just to gain a couple HP

Do you have an suggestions on turbo kits that I should use for it. Like a t3t4 turbo kit or maybe something along those lines?

it will have to be an OBD1 ECU, most people use a P28 or P06. It you want to play on a turbo set up, to be reliable, your going to need to spend upwards of at least $3k+
