Question

like what kinda pistons, cam, clutch. or anything

Answer 1

Bigger injectors,Better fuel rail,Better fuel pump,Get your ecu tuned and chipped,upgrade your raidator, You can pretty much keep your internals stock and run no more than 8psi of boost.

Answer 2

Buy a Turbo kit. $3,000-6,500.

It comes with everything you need including the turbo.

For Turbo kits that add 100HP, they come with Intercooler, piping, Cold Air Intake, blow off valve, Turbocharger, performance chip and programmer and a few more parts.

For Turbo kits that add more power than 100HP, they come with all of that plus engine parts like piston rings and other things.

Answer 3

bigger fuel injectors, oil line, oil pan, upgrade fuel rail, make sure clutch is good...its really expensive. youd be better off supercharging

Answer 5

You can safely have 9psi of boost on a K20 block. Some have even done 11psi.

If you do want to boost more then you are looking at aftermarket rods, pistons, cams, gaskets, bigger (650cc) injectors, clutch. fuel rail, piping etc.

KPro is a must.

If you track the car above 12psi then beware that the stock transmission is going to blow at some point.
