LC Engineering 22RE turbo kits

So, I'm just curious since I'm not in a position to drop a lot of cash...

I looked at LC Engineering's site, and they have a bunch of 22RE stage engines and a bunch of turbo/boost options.
Can anyone speak from experience with any of these?

Are their turbo kits legit? worth the price?
Are their stage 3 or stage 5 engines warrant the price?

I wont be racing anything. I was more or less just curious.
The only product I might consider is a turbo / boost kit for an 89 4runner 22RE

Just curious why you would want to, spend @ $6000.00 building a engine to start if your not racing and have no budget

Haha. To clarify, I dont. I was just curious to know more about it.
I might be willing to spend money on a turbo/boost kit....but I have no idea what that would really do. Is that even realistic for a daily driver, etc?
Anyone on here speak from experience?

Like I said you would need to build a engine to handle the boost

Putting a Turbo on a old tired engine would just cause you to build the engine after rather then sooner.

These 22 R series engines are very expensive per horse Power gained

Your ahead all around with a stock 3.4 engine swap

Cost and Horse power

I have 2 of the 22RTE engines the 3.4 out works them every day

Read your way through the threads lots of good reading
