And good'n'tight makes very good manifolds he should be able to do an m42 manifold since he usually sells m50 manifolds, he could take off a couple cylinders on cylinder 5 and 6 and it should work the same. You might wanna get an MLS and arp head studs as well

Depends on how thrifty and how lucky you get. I could do it for $600. And no i will not put together a $600 kit for someone. Do your own damn searching. lol. But a good tip for eta builds is to use volvo turbo injectors. They are 29lb low impedance which is perfect for e electronics

Noob question here, just in the motor, how much money can go for 200-250 hp to the ground on a super eta?...Same as you guys, I just want a fun car not a jet, also I dont want to convert to stroker due to much money in doing it wright...Thanks in advance, any opinion will be nice.

Early Volvo turbo. From what i recall the compressor map was similar to a t28 but has a t3 flange

Bov, modified oil pan, oil cooler, piping, turbo, intercooler, down pipe and all that good stuff... Thinking of a vw turbo, or one from an Evo or something like that.

Until you can conceptually visualize how each component functions, what it's purpose is, and how your choice affects the entire system, you are not ready to start buying."
Like most people, you probably are thinking you’re going to turbo your motor, but in reality you are going to get in WAY over your head. Don’t be a fool, be honest with your self, and make the right decision.

If you are this inexperienced with motors to the point of asking "what do I need to do to get XXX amount of power?", then you probably shouldn’t do it. There is A LOT more to boosting a motor than just slapping on a turbo and going on your merry way. As stated before, have you driven an e30, or an equivalent size and weight car with 400whp? Are you doing suspension and more importantly BRAKE upgrades? And you better be putting a cage and a 5-point harness in the car, going fast isn’t worth losing your life. Anyways view the link below if you really are going to do this.

250whp in an e30 is very fun.
Drivetrain wise a heavy duty clutch, an lower ratio diff and LSD will be enough for 350+whp. I still think you can get that on stock bottom end. BeefJerky is pulling over 400 crank HP. On stock bottom end.
Check out e30tech that's the place for turbos and there are a couple good writeups on it.
