He's going o spend AT LEAST 500 on a dyno getting it tuned so it doesn't run mad lean/rich. Intercooler maybe, waste gate, theres a lot more to it if u want to do it right then just buying a cheap ass turbo off ebay and thinking you can just slap it on your car. I say even if he goes used AND can install everything himself hes going to spend over 2 grand easy.
That sounds pretty accurate when it comes to a turbo for a Mustang. He could possibly go supercharger for a little bit less just from the abundance of parts available to supercharge a stang, but itd still be probably at least 1500.
