Default 300 HP. With a difference

Hi
First time here so I hope someone can help.
I am putting a Turbo into a lightweight kit car
I need to know what sort of money it would take to get to different bhp readings up to 300hp. Ie 250 /275 /300.
What is the best equipment for your money.
Regards: MadV

Thanks Mike
I was thinking of 300 but its actually going into a Beachbuggy.Therefore I might just keep it as standard although the exhaust is going to be modified. Just picked up the engine and ancillaries. Cambelts gone but as I work in a Subaru/Hyundai dealership it should be no problem to get bits.

ecutek is just a remap of the my99 ecu, which you would do to an import for it to run safely on uk fuel. mad idea

Local agent is Extreme Scoobies in Chelmsford. The Bugle Buggy concern is mine and I thought a Scoob engine would fit nicely in the back

Why not get an STi engine?, more expensive, but if you dont want to modify it, they push around 280-300HP standard...

It's been done before and if you do a search on here you'll probably see details of it.
