I would doubt that getting an RS6 vice turbocharging an Audi V8 is the
cheapest option. You can get a fabbed kit for the Miata with ECU for 5-6k,
so double that and subtract maybe 1-2 grand as you don't need the ECU twice
:-D. Now, thats if you're really lazy. As well, a custom fabricator will
have few issues doing a turbo kit on the V8. I've seen some of these guys
tackle far worse projects and prevail.
Or, you can DIY. Screw buying 1200 Garrett turbo's like this tool here <---
and get some used 3K or T-series stuff, or even diesel holsets. Learn how
to weld, or figure out a way to get manifolds made. Make a DIY Megasquirt
for your car, and then get exhaust/plumping figured out, and injectors, and
you're technically good to go.
I'd bet at 3-4k in you'd be able to pull off an SC/Turbo kit. 20k is
ridiculous, who the hell do they think they are DINAN? Sounds about right
with the price, hmph.
