whats your budget, the ptuning and sos turbo kits are the most complete kits and come with pretty much everything to install, tune and drive, but theres a bunch of other kits that will get you to ur power goals for far less money.

Budget would be around 5k. Wouldn't mind doing a custom build just wouldn't know what all I would need. I just wanna see what turbo kits are out there.

5k is what you are going to spend on the kit itself. Everything else is going to cost more (fuel setup, clutch, misc.) It adds up quick even for a mild build.

You have to tell us what you need from the kit. Does it have to be daily driven reliable? Do you want something mild and tucked away? Do you want a show car? Something that looks good? Street car? Quick response?

If you don't want to relocate any AC lines or even the stock heatshield, go with SOS. Call them up, tell them what it is you want, and they will let you know what you need. If they feel that their kit doesn't fit the bill, I am sure they will recommend another kit. Trackforged has a kit that you can run without relocating anything I believe, and if you wanted, that kit is able to support some big numbers if you crank up the boost.

Once you decide on a kit then you have to pick out specifics. What turbo? Which hotside? What exhaust?

Just keep this in mind during your build.

It isn't all about the numbers.

It's gonna be more of a daily turbo I drive every weekend. Looking for a kit that is fast spooling.

you could get away with a log kit to make that 400hp, on a 30rish size turbo, pfab, full blown and inline pro all make good log kits that are a good price, if you want something a little better flowing look into some of the tubular manifolds, they will make more power at less psi than the logs, but with most of those kits you will have to relocate some stuff bc of heat. I would def look into the sos new turbo kit it looks very nice, fast spooling and dont have to relocate anything
