used sts turbo yes or no

[lipsasaurus]

found a used kit on craiglist, its 1200 obo complete kit but the base one, not kit with the intercooler,injectors and tune. the turbo needs rebuilt i was thinking of offering 800. Worth the price or walk away.

Walk away. You'll end up spending more in the end.

Not to hijack the thread but whats the opinion on power adders like? Curious to know who thinks what? whats the best mod:: * Turbo,*Supercharger,*Nitrous. I know itll probably get a ''its whats best for you'' or ''depends on what your lookin for''answer but am just curious as to what all the guys think?

If you want quick inexpensive HP, Nitrous. A full kit is about $1000
If you have the money, a Blower is the way to go. But that can run well over $5000.

Don't forget filling the bottle. I'd probably never have a full one if I had nitrous.

[Ed Blown Vert]

I always has a spare.

That'd certainly help. I'd still be making weekly runs to Summit for refills though. I gots a heavy foot.

When I first got it installed. Two bottles wouldn't make it through the weekend.

well here is the thing, its a complete base kit for 1200, i cant afford a procharger kit and i feel like Nos is the easy way out i would much rather be all motor or blown, at least for as long as possible. To be honest if i had 6k to spend on a blower id just get a brand new crate LSX motor

[lipsasaurus]

so i talked the guy into selling it for 850. any opinons?

Like others have said just walk away. In the end you will probably spend enough coin for that LSX crate motor to get it to work properly.
