takes about $2k-$4k to do a good job on a turbo, Saab or any other sport sedan, otherwise any soccer mom can drive a Honda with more power right off the lot... u just have to add it up!
Intake: $50 (DIY with K&N filter) or $150 (open air)
Intercooler: Viggen IC and one air hose, cheap at $250+ extra lower rad hose, or $500+ for an aftermarket IC with decent pipes
Bosch turbo bypass valve or after-market BOV: $50-$150
Reuse existing air pipe plus enlarge TB connecting elbow, DIY (if your time is free), or,
New air pipe and elbow: $300-400
2.5 inch down pipe with flex joint, or 3" solid down pipe: $300
Race cat: $100
Exhaust: $300 (noisy w. one muffler)-$600 (quiet/stainless w. two muflers)
ECU upgrade: $500 "chipped"-$1000 custom
Turbo: $300 T25 rebuilt - $1000 retrofit
...and 17" rims and tires and new FPR AND the bigger fuel injectors... oh my!
and now you just have to keep all that new hp on the pavement somehow...
(are we having fun yet?)
