with 3g you will be struggling to get everything you need to upgrade the turbo (since you will also need aftermarket ecu, and most likely AFM and injectors) unless you get second hand stuff.

as for what power you get, that will depend on the turbo you get.

Do you have an exhaust, cause this is the first thing you will need, get JJR front/dump pipe 200$ and full 3 inch exhaust (250$ maybe for a s/h one is fine) before you do anything and a boost controller of some sort, turbotech one is fine for 30$.Get a full service and tune at 10-11psi for 200-300$ should net you 180-190kw

then

s/h programable ecu 1000$

hiflow turbo 1000$ (hypergear)

turnflow intercooler 400$

tune 600$

Money gone..you should make about 210-220kw if your engine is in good condition..if your clutch is stock it probably wont last long either..

add..

inectors 500$ s/h

z32 afm 250$

coilpacks 600$

better intercooler 700$

better turbo 1500$

should make 250-280kw, you will definately need a good clutch now so add over 1000$ if you dont have one already

Prices are approx and dont include any labour or extras such as sparkplugs, oils and filters, which you will need to replace all of..

well why didnt you say so, half the work is done already.

For 3k you want some form of boltup highflow, many places do these, hypergear, GCG, ATP to name a few, looking at about 1500 for this

You will also need a ECU about 1000 should get you something

And a Z32 afm about 250 for a new one.

EDIT just remembered you will need Injectors of some description, i got some secondhand cost about 550 with cleaning and all or you can get yours hiflowed. And a new fuel pump 300, so say good bye to roughly another 1000.

Now your 3k is gone, make sure you give it a full service all oils and filters then take it for a full dynotune costs about 500 to 1000 depending who you go to and you should be able to make 220 to 280kw. Depending on turbo choice. Do your homework

Do you want more power down low or up top?

NB..do not think you can just add a turbo and drive it doesnt work that way..

as you can see I just spent 5000 of your 3000 budget :D

so if 3k is all you can spend just get an ECU and a small hiflow, think hypergear does them around 1000 and they bolt straight in. A good fuel pump is still a must 300. Tune will be same price 500 plus. Your money is gone you should make 220ishkw. This is about all standard injectors and afm will handle.

Its still better than stock beleive me, Mine only has 235kw,(depending on the weather :/ ) its a bit slack in the top end compared to some others but its a rocket down low. theres a bunch of little tricks to make it all work too but for that you will just have to do some homework its all in these pages mate but you just gunna have to look

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
