You can't just slap a turbo on a 3.0 especially since there are no bolt on kits
Take that money that you have saved up and buy a faster car.

or simply stop comparing your 3.0 vtec to 300hp+ brand new 06 v8 mustang. i kinda went through that i want to be faster then everyone else stage too but i slapped myself out of it. start lightly modding your cl.. change the exhaust setup, headers, intake, pulleys, do all the light stuff or like everyone else said let go of the cl

About $4G's you gonna spend on the turbo and some upgrade, but not to mention the $$$ in repairs your gonna have to pay if you don't do things right. Turbo in my mind is a waist of money unless you are someone with money to burn, or race and everything on your car is paid for by an outside source, or your young and wanna impress the wrong field. But there fun while they last, that is if they last.

Honestley, the CL is never going to be a fast car. Its more of a crusing/looking good car. If you want speed, the CL just isn't the car for you.
