i got a 06 si coupe with k20 engine,


what would be the best turbo go for? something that is in a budget range, and something that wont blow up my engine and needs least care lol

it'll most likely be my daily car and i wanna kill those mexicans with their jettas, srt4 and mustangs

 

You're not allowed to run boost.

on a more serious note there are a few kits, ajp blows(highly recommend avoiding there turbo set up). geddy makes a good kit which will get you just over 250whp with out kpro. Mind you kpro is on the way, and with that along with a boost controller, you can get pleny more out of the same setup(bigger injectors). If i were you id wait. I hate to say it but there are better companies with plans for your car(revhard, full race ect.) it will just take time. You can also put a kit together yourself. Come up with a list of everything you need, and start purchasing it. Many rsx-s parts work on your car aswell.
For the time being comptech is coming out with there stg 2 kit. The base kit it getting over 250whp, and with stg2 you should see around 300whp, and as soon as kpro come out buy it, and then get the car tuned and you will see even better gains. and to compliment the sc you could buy some bc cams.
Sorry i got a little of topic of best bang for your buck. that would be to do your own kit and piece everything together yourself, but if you looking for a turbo kit for a decent price with decent a gains then greddy is that way to go at the current moment. Greddy price is around 3300.
Comptech sc price is just under 4k. I would also get a 3in exhaust.

 

im pretty sure kpro is already out

 

not for the k20z3, its in the process, but its not out for the z3. its out for every ther k series from a, a2, a3, z1, k24a1 ect.
It will happen soon, their are just finializing the harness and a few other things. but no its not out, you cant not go puchase k pro for your k20z3 at this current moment.
they might not even call it k pro. ive heard a few words on maybe i-pro

 

well.. power goals and what is your budget.. that will ultimately determine the turbo kit you want... if u want to pay for cheap **** then you get cheap ****... plain as that.

if your going to spend the money.. then get the good stuff that way you dont have to worry about it breaking. Remember this though, when you turbocharge an engine, its going to take more maintence and care than an stock engine. there will be more frequent oil changes, checking piping (i did that alot jus to make sure) and broken parts (personally i think people break turbo cars over supercharged cars)

so before you spend the money jus remember that there is more care and maintence involved
