Well, what mods do you have already? Your going to need a tranny, injectors and a turbo, plus tuning to run it.

$1500 for some 250/200 hybrids
$1500 for a GTP-38R turbo
$4200 for a BTS tranny
$400 for gauges
$450 for tuning...

Sell the Allison, they are nothing special, and without a PCS controler and some kind of adapter it will not work.

Sell the Allison for whatever you bought it for... Then call up BTS, I believe he has a waiting list.. Who quoted you that much for injectors and a turbo? What turbo is it?

My advice to you is to post up in the vendor section. Take that parts list that Joe posted up earlier and see what kind of price quotes you can get...

Seems a little high. Depends on the turbo... If you get a 38r, it should only be about 1500 bucks as all you need is the turbo.. If you go after something like a modded H2E, then you need the whole set up so your looking at 2500-3k is my guess..

For injectors, I know Full Force sells hybrids for like 1850 bucks.
