    The hardest part of all is getting the correct piping. Where you plan to mount the turbo, what kind of turbo is it? The size of the turbine? The custom fabrication of the piping to me is gonna be the challenge. A dyno tune is a must to make everything work and you'll be fabricating mounts for the intercooler. It's all possible, just how much time and how deep are your pockets? All in all, if you can pull it off, it would be neat.

      I say the most expensive parts are going to be the custom charge tubes. If I recall correctly the WRX's Turbo is rather small. Its going to Spool up quick and max out PSI quick. The Price is unbeatable -the-less. I say with a little bit shy of $1k you can make it work. I say its going to be interesting to see how you mount the Intercooler and Turbo. Like Chris said, It would be pretty kew to see. A custom tune and flash is going to be a must

        yea defintaly im thinking about moving my battery to the back and yes the wrx turbos are fairly small but with a v6 i reallly dont have to rely on all the turbo like alot of cars so i cna have it lag a little bit the turbo will spool up to i think around 10 - 12 which would be good so it can fit where my battery is but i will definately post pics when i get it done the place that is helping me has a 8 second v6 camaro turboed badass they said 6k for me to bring them my car and they do everything tune and all i just dont have that much so i got the turbo and shit so that should knock alot off but as soon as i get started ill post 'em

              I've seen turbo 3.4s that just plain rip. As with anything, careful attention to the proper parts and tune will yield excellent results. The 3.4 is a great motor that suffers from poor heads and intake as delivered in F-bodies. A set of FWD heads and intake really wake up this little motor.

                Turbo is Forced Induction.
