turbo help

[joshk5145]

hello,A fuel upgrade is a must when running a turbo...Everything depends on the HP goal your looking to get..but the base parts you would want to upgrade is fuel-pump,injectors,FPR, you also want to get some kind of piggyback ECU like a Apexi SAFC to be able to tune how much fuel your putting into the engine and Wideband from AEM...If you want to go over 5-8psi of boost,you at least want to install a thicker head-gasket.As for the turbo kit,you will need the turbo,exhaust manifold,wastegate,BOV,intercooler,piping,oil feed and drain lines and you will have to tap a hole in your oil pan for the drain line..Going NA-T is not hard you just have be very careful that everything is installed right...Ebay turbo kits are a very good deal of your looking for a kit under 1k,BUT the wastegates and oil lines are crap,so if you do get a ebay kit,make sure you upgrade those 2 things..

Really, A piggy back? Depending on what car and what year most can actually be chipped and tuned Thicker headgasket for over 5-8 psi?All depends, comp works well with turbo setups to an extent So just the wastegates and oil lines are crap from the ebay kits?Lots of people have problems with the turbo seals and those stainless manifolds too

OP I'd read up a little bit more about turbo's and kits before you try to boost. Research is key to having a good reliable set-up, Buy a good quality kit and make sure your engine is good and healthy. I can post some links for a good informative read if you'd like.
