My entire hydro install cost me about 1500 but I got alot of parts used and that includes the metal fab parts I needed to make up other than my trunk set up (that was pricey).
On a strutted car I would definitely go juice again.

Check out www.hydroholics.net
There is a lot of info on that site. The price I put up includes cylinders, lines, pumps, 5 dump manifold, switches, switch wire, fittings, ect. Because every car is different, it does not include the pieces you would need to make you suspension bolt in. For your car (if memory serves me) you will need 4 rod ends $25 a piece, 2 pairs of threaded sleeves $39 a pair, 2 pairs of 5" upper doughnuts (you will drill holes in these and bolt them to your upper strut tower) $24 a pair, and 2 pairs of 2" cylinder extensions $30 a pair. So another $286 for a bolt in suspension. $1589+$286=$1,875. Hopefully my mind serves me correctly and that is accurate, but you should have someone who knows what they are doing install the setup. They will know exactly what they need once they look at the car.
The best battery you can buy is the Kinetik HC1800. Hydroholics sells them for $199 a piece and I would do 3 of them. If your budget doesn't allow that, the next best thing is the very inexpensive Duralast deep cycle batteries at around $65 a piece. There are a lot of benefits to the Kinetik, hence the large price tag... but the Duralast ones will work just fine.
If you want to talk to me about install, feel free to email me at tre5peter@cox.net I have done plenty of vehicles from CA, and even as far as Dallas, TX.
