looking for a possible 300 just from the kit, or more. i will be adding rings and pistons and more internal work so it can stand higher psi. so i guess really im looking to get close to 400

What kind of motor do you have? I would assume the 2.0 since you said swap. But have to make sure.

But if you're looking for only 300whp and your doing pistons already you can get that on the m62. And save A LOT of money.

ok, other than the normal turbo items, ie turbo, piping, turbo manifold, BOV, WG, intercooler, fittings, lines, dp, you will also need to decide whether your gonna keep the air to water setup or go air to air. if you stay air to water, you will need a blower delete kit from atpturbo.com, and either a blower delete pulley or a 2.2L alternator and belt. if you go air to air you will need a different intake manifold, and your choice of the 2.2l alternator and belt or the blower delete pulley. you will also have to decide whether or not you want DBB, or journal bearing. if DBB, you'll need to run coolant lines in addition to the oil lines.(the benefits on that one far outwiegh the cost and difficulty) and thats just to get you started. don't go cheap! you'll definately pay sooner than later w/ a custom turbo setup.

and thats the end of me being nice, the rest is on you to research and find out. plenty of info on this sight to be found, as well as on the internet.
