Don't buy the kit, this turbo is for a 4G63 not the 420A, you most likely would have to get a custom kit, or do a lot of cutting and pasting to get this one to work.

he's right. you cant just bolt that on. and all the money you spend in fabrication, you can buy a hrc stageII kit 2 times over. and sebassttiann
is right, you cant just drop a 4g63 in a 2gnt. i wish you could though.

You can't use that stuff don't buy any of it. I have a hahnracecraft turbo kit for sale if your interested pm me for more details. My 420a has been turbo for 3 years now and Ill help you out if you want. the swap to a 4g63 is about a 10 thousand dollar swap last time it was done on the other forum.(2gnt.com) the swap is totally not worth it to me. good luck with the turbo otherwise!

star is not that great for a non built motor. the turbo is too big for only a 7psi set up. you end up not seeing boost till like 5k rpms. my friends setup all was rattled after install because the down pipe is all one peice with out a flex pipe. the star kit is still an option. sebassttiann i pmed you about price and details on kit
