I forget the costs but they weren't super exepensive.  Extrude honing the
exhaust manifold and turbine housing will help the turbo spool up faster.
Swain coating both parts will keep underhood temps lower.  Swain is located
outside of Rochester, NY.  Extrude hone is in CA and PA.  The exhaust
manifold will go to PA and the Turbine housing will go to CA.

Water injection is great.  I just filled my resevoir up with some nice
washer fluid with listed ingredients of Water, Methanol and coloring.  :)
