Click on About the president then click project cars and check out the IS 300 TT, Take a good look at the engine. I called him up and asked if he could do that with a GS and he said it would not be a problem.

It cost more than $8k ....Turbo Gs300 project will start pretty soon. The shop has been busy lately and we don't have anytime to mess with the GS....

As far as Cost goes you will have to contact Reg Riemer at RCTS directly, this post is more about the fact that RCTS is the only one that has done this swap before without loss of reliability.

I think a member on here, V300, did it some time before Reg with all functions working like Stock.
He did it on an 98 GS300.
