However...make sure you have done your research and realize you are going to spend alot of money for a mediocre gain. Because you are probably only looking at about 200hp which is right around the stock hp for a gst. And also realize that these "kits" still do not include everything that you will need to run them such as any gauges you need, boost controllers, tuning devices. Turboback exhaust that will be nesessary.

Not to mention you are now going to be putting alot more stress on a motor that was not meant to handle it. You will only be able to run about 6-8psi on the stock block, and i guarentee within a year your head gasket will be blown from the extra pressure. So be prepared to replace that.

All im saying is make sure you do your homework first before you jump into anything and be prepared to spend some money
