    no turbo is bolt on for a golf.
    you have to replace the manifold as well... someone correct me if i'm wrong...

    i'd say dont waste your money, save for a vr6 and get a supercharger on it.

    ahh yes true. i wouldn't really class any turbo mod as a 'bolt on' job. if it doesn't have a turbo, you can't just stick one in. you need to replace the mani before it will attach.

    and about 6000 other parts too.
    if yuore not willing to invest between $5,000 - $10,000 on the setup then dont even consider it

    Thumbs up

    im not sure about bolt on kits as such but you will be looking at the bigger end of $10'000 for a complete running custom set-up; unless you know people . . . wouldbe great if you go ahead with it
