Default Turbo's to much trouble?

Im looking throught all this stuff on turbos all these ppl listing all this stuff you need done.. but my question is dont most turbo kits come with evereything you need? but my main question is if i went with no turbos at all and went with just otherupgrades becuase i was talking with this guy on my other post(should still be on the 1st page) and he gave me a list of upgrades i could do that dont include turbos and i was wonderng how much hp i could get from these upgrades without a turbo

many upgrades will give u a max of 25-30hp, but a turbo, it's an increase of 80-100whp... I placed a list of what i bought, but i didn't bought a kit, and yes, the kit comes w/ almost everything u'll need... don't forget to get the "missing link" (plastic piece that goes between the throttle and the map sensor!) if u need any more help just ask... have a good one!

don't get me wrong, other upgrades are good also, only that i don't believe it's possible to reach the 80-100hp w/ plain and simple changes...

KevinAccord, you have your stock F23 tranny? How much boost are you running on it? Do you know how much the stock tranny can handle? How much did you have to spend to get your turbo set up?
