It all depends on what your power goals are and what your budget is like. You can probably piece together a kit for like $2K and put down probably similar to what Ben's putting down. But, if you want mega HP, you can shell out some nice $$ and put down what Jay was putting down in his SE-R (407 whp, I believe). As far as this person with the DET goes, if he said that DETs are only RWD, stay away from people like that. He obviously doesn't know very much about DETs. No offense intended (sorry if he's your friend). If there are only RWD DETs available, then why is there a Pulsar GTi-R, and a BlueBird. True, you still can't use those trannies, but they are not RWD and they will bolt up to your stock tranny. Now, $1,500 is a good price, but you can't just buy the DET, put it in and expect it to run great. You have to think about upgrading your clutch to handle the power, your fuel system to handle the additional air flow, intercooling, etc., etc. If "I" were to get a DET, this is what "I" would do to make it run nice: Get DET, replace bearings, rebuild turbo (T25 most likely), make sure injectors are good, get FMIC and custom piping made, get a custom 3" exhaust, send ECU to Clark, ACT clutch, boost/EGT/oil pressure gauges, get a 1G DSM BOV, and get ES inserts. This is the minimum "I" would do. Others have had success with less, but I live in hot as hell AZ and I gotta make sure that **** runs great, if not, bye bye DET. Or you can avoid the hassle and just get a HS or F-Max and just bolt that puppy up. No guesswork involved. But like I said, it all depends on your power goals and budget. Personally, I'm piecing together my own turbo stuff, but I like to do things my own way, but that's just me
Have fun!!
