Hey guys. I searched for a while looking for something that would answer my question, but couldn't find a good response. I need 2+2=4. A list would be great.

At first I was going to do an engine swap, but with all those posts here, I decided my best route would be taking note of that you stated in other posts, rebuilding the engine and upgrading as needed for a turbo inclusion.

So, my question is this: Other than what is included in a "Rebuild Kit", what things should I buy if I am going to get a turbo kit later on?

I want to take advantage of the engine being rebuilt and have the parts for, whatever needs to be done, to include a turbo placement in my car later on.

**My Car: 1997 Eagle Talon ESi, 420A with 200,xxx miles on original engine.**

Those that know, thank you in advance for your help, and although I'm a "n oo b": flamers can burn to dust.

Master Performance Engine Rebuild Kit 2.0 420A $2,049.95

That kit will do both the top and bottom end. Most here go with just the bottom end since our top end is pretty stout. This is the kit I bought. You will need to buy a few gaskets thermostat, intake set head gasket if you go with the below kit. You will also need to get a bunch of different sealants.
