Default Converting NA to Bostlogic stage 1 turbo. need help

I have 93 supra NA automatic with 150k on it and getting deals on making it a single turbo. I am considering boostlogic turbo kit ($4499 + $1775 installation). what do you guys think should I go with boostlogic turbo kit or not. I am getting it from suprastore.com.

My concern is car is automatic. Is it worth to do that or should I look around somewhere else.

my budget is to be done not more than $7k.


thanks

I think it's a very worthwhile project, as long as the shop doing that installation for $1775 is very experienced working on the Toyota Supra.

When I say worthwhile, I know you'll produce the power you're looking for. What I can not promise you is whether or not your oem n/a auto tranny will hold up. The guys at Boostlogic can tell you for sure.

Also, why don't you buy directly from boostlogic?

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.

Its an na-t conversion kit, they would list if you need to have a tranny upgrade if you need to upgrade the trans, but sence its a na-t conversion the original trans should work.

i have the BL stage 1 kit and heres a few things i had to do...for one...expecially with the age of your tranny (mine was 136k miles) you need a upgraded tranny...mine lasted 3 months before it started slipping 2nd gear and another thing is if your looking to go any further than the 280whp you need a new headgasket...it was fun at first but once i realized i couldnt boost more than 9psi without a headgasket i had to upgrade...but those things arent too much...it cost me 1700 for a built BL tranny (got it on a for sale listing) and 230 for the 2mm headgasket and anothern 130ish for head studs and a map-ecu for 400.

so if your going NA-T, you might as well budget for the tranny, headgasket, maf transulator or map-ecu, and head studs to complete the transistion.
