CFT does good work. Few cars in my area have been boosted by them.

Since that shop has probably never boosted a C-series engine (very few have!), the kit will most likely have to be all custom. If they can keep it to maybe 5-7 pounds of boost, you may not need to have internal work done (meaning, all you will need will be things like turbo manifold, intercooler and piping, possibly new fuel injectors/fuel pressure regulator, etc.).

But, if you're gunning for the big numbers, horsepower-wise, you'll need custom 8.5:1 or 9:1 pistons, rods, head studs, etc., which may double your price (or even more). Not to mention dyno tuning your A/F ratio on a wideband.

Look forward to hearing your progress, and how it turns out.

A buddy got a quote to boost sock f22a cb7 it was like around 3k. That was with parts labor and tune. This was also 3 years ago too tho…

As for CFT not boosting c series engines I wouldn’t doubt them. They have boosted just about everything.
