"hi i want a fast car but i dont want to pay for it"

too bad, you cant.

You can either stick to oem, pay for worthy items, or waste your money in garbage. Your choice.

btw to me, any company with "race", "fast", "power", "performance" and so on in its name shouts "chinese/taiwanese crap" in my ears.

Zilvians don't like people who cheap out. Just don't get butthurt, because it's for your own benefit anyways. Your car won't like you if you cheap out, either.

But seriously, stick with an OEM turbo, or scan the For Sale section for a lightly used Garrett. They pop up all the time for under a grand.

Are you ready for a LS1? Do you have enough driving time at track so that you will be able to make use of all the power?
Having more powerful engine isn't going to make you get faster lap times or better drifter.

Bottom line, you buy cheap turbo's or kits, it will make a great show car. Not a reliably track car, or street car.

If you are getting rid of the KA why are you wanting to waste your money on parts for it? Or you can turbocharge it with quality parts and not get rid of it cause it will be a good motor. Don't make me come back there!

Might as well just start investing in the ls1. Why waste money on building something you're not planning to keep ._.
