Default Turbo Kit?

I've been reading alot about people installing turbo kits on there wheelers...where can these be found at and how much performance does it increase with one? are they worth it or does it just depend on what machine you have and what else is on the machine?

The only one I have seen is the KMS. It bumps a 660 raptor from 39 hp to 60 hp. That's a night and day difference.
If you are willing to pay $4,500 for one it may be worth it, but me personaly could find a better use for that kind of money.

You confused a turbo system with a k&n air filter? The k&n powerkit consist of an air filter, new jets, a prefilter and crap like that.

Power kits usually just consist of jets, air filter, and pre-filter.

I don't think power kits are worth the money. The one I bought for my recon 3 years ago cost me around 150. You can get a K&N filter, prefilter, and the jets you need for about half that. I don't think just a filter is going to give you a very noticable gain(I couldn't feel a difference), but it does give you a little more power, and K&N filters are very convenient to clean.
