   Simple answer is a lot. But it depends on the car and the turbo you go for.

   these threads are really starting to become annoying!
   
   every week seems as though somebody wants to turbo or supercharge their car and seem to think it costs a couple hundred squid.
   
   Wish people would do a search first and tbh if it was that easy and cheap dont you think everyone would be doing it!
   
   sorry im just a bit grumpy and felt like a moan

   Basically need alot of time and money.
   
   its definatly not cheap.
   
   not sure on every part needed.
   
   but belive some would be:
   
   Turbo
   Manifold
   piping
   managment
   bigger injectors
   Intercooler
   
   and alot more i guess.
