I orginally purchased the kit from HKS back in 1988...in 1990 it became hard to get. I did ALL of the work on the car myself. There have been many modifications sine the original kit, and other than the exaust manifold, and some tubing there is not much left on the car from the orginal kit. If your going to turbo your car, plan on spending around $3500-$5000 for parts to do it right.
