to turbo or not to turbo
im thinkin about turboing my 97 protege 1.8 DOHC
is this possible and how expensive is it to do?
im pretty well oblivious to the process so any help would be appriciated
also what kind of gains would i be looking at??

You could turbo your Pro for like $2,000.... but it would be craptastic and you wouldn't be able to boost very high, your money would be better spent elsewhere.
For about $3,500+ or so (just a guess, that what the shops around here are charging) you could have decent setup.
Once you have turbo you dont want to go back. I went back and hated almost every min of it.

Exhaust piping is not included and so does the other electronics and gauges.
