Going to turbo my Gen II 2az auto, need an estimate of cost.
Posted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:15 pmAfter some long thinking, I have finally made up my mind in getting a turbo kit for my 2az Solara.
The kit that I am looking for is the Dezod S1 kit for automatic Scion TCs:
Here is what is included in the kit:

If I get this Turbo kit with the automatic option, the cost of the turbo kit alone will be just over $4000. I will also be getting some more additional parts but my question relates to the cost of labor:
Am I looking at around $2,000 to $3,000 USD on labor costs of getting the turbo kit that was made originally for the Scion TC to fit in my car? I know Tacti had some intercooler pipes fabricated and did a lot of tuning on the dyno, I know the fabrication and the dyno tune will be the majority of the labor costs.
Thanks for your time and response! I have been dreaming about being the 2nd guy on SG to have a turbo Gen II, not going for bragging rights, I just want the lara to have more power for the drag strip.
