Default turbocharge?

Hey guys, I am kinda new to the site. I also purchased my vette around 2-3 months ago. I was just trying to get some advice on where I should go to get my turbo. I probably won't get it anytime soon, but myself as well as all of you definately have some plans for your own cars. Maybe plans or dreams. 92 vette.

start searching and decide what sort of power output you want now and in the future make your decision on what you want in intended use first then my best recomendation is to buy here and ebay btw i called a radiator shop in my hometown --roseburg -- douglas radiator and they will make my intercoolers dirt cheep, hell they made me a 2 core alumunum radiator for 230 so anywho to sum up

#1 decide use
#2 reserch
#3 reserch vendors

ie: a t3/t4 turbo like off an eclipse are like 200 bucks apiece and if you can't weld call your community college ask the welding shop to do the fab work

to sum up i wouldnt have some shop just put in a kit, do it yourself even if it takes you longer its worth it and you can save HUGE amounts of money
