turbo
k guys im not selling my car anymore, instead im buying a drag3 turbo kit. I need to know what else to buy to complete this for my ls. What FMU to buy and were to take it to get tuned/installed at a good price. I would have looked to buy a revhard but still want my ac and dont want to have to cut subframe or get a smaller radiator. so thats the reason i went with the drag

Re: turbo
dont bother with an fmu joe...
get hondata & injectors. youll save your money in engine life.
drag3 kits arent bad....id usually prefer rev-hard or if you have the money full-race. peakboost (pwr) doesnt make a bad equal length kit as well. check out cheapturbos.com, revhard.com, or full-race.com. theres someone you can pm about details on the full-race kits and prices....he might be able to work something out for you.

Re: turbo
i actually bought the kit from a friend, but you can get them from just about any site for around $2500, then you can sell your missing link and fmu because you dont need taht with hondata, 550 injectors would be straight.
just letting you know its gonna cost about another 1000 dollars ontop of the turbo kit to get it tuned, after buying new ecu, hondata, injectors, obd2-1 conversion harness, dyno time and then tuning time

Re: turbo
tuned i would take it to abacus and get it dyno tuned and to install it i would do it urself or get soemone to personally help u instead of spending 800$ just for a shop to install then the money u save can go towards a better kit or hondata
