    Default ***The Forced Induction Forum FAQ Thread-Turbo Size, Injector Size, Turbo Manifold***

    This will be a general Turbo FAQ thread to cut down on the numerous threads popping up lately.

    WHAT YOU NEED TO TURBOCHARGE
    Turbo

    Turbo Manifold

    Downpipe

    Oil Lines (Sometimes coolant lines depending on what turbo you run)

    Injectors (look further in this post for what size)

    Walbro Fuel Pump

    Intercooler

    Intercooler piping

    Intercooler piping clamps/couplers

    Blow off Valve and Flange

    Wastegate- Depends on what turbo and power level

    Drain line

    Misc Fittings

    Some kind of tuning device- varies per application, check with shops if you are unsure of what to use


    HOW TO SELECT A TURBO CHARGER

    Lots of things factor in to what size turbo you should pick. You need to look at the displacement of your engine, what your power level goals are, and how fast you want it to spool.

    WHERE TO BUY TURBOCHARGERS

    I only listed a fraction of the turbos out there, but they are the ones you see the most on most applications.

    Check out Cheapturbo.com they have LOTS of turbos you can pick through and of course, Honda-Tech.com

    I might update this thread with different graphs of different cars so you can really see what they make

    You forgot InlinePro, Neukin, AFI, Lovefab, SLS, and Peakboost when it comes to turbo honda manifolds!! I know they're plenty more but those are the basics.

    You'd be suprised how much power you can make on 4x 1000cc injectors... even at under 100% duty cycle... but I understand your numbers are averages. =D

    JWT and CalumSult are good options for Nissan tuning. Megasquirt is big amongst certain DSM crowds as well, mainly the boosted 2gnt guys.

    Its a waste of your time and money because you don't have either... will someone please tell him how much time and money this will cost him....tune, install, buying the right kit not an EBAY one like he's looking at getting, ecu tuning, and other crap..

    THe K Series are expensive because you must buy KPRO to turbo them.

    PARTS wise your looking at around $4500-5000 to boost a K SERIES.

    Greddy Kit is somewhere around $2500-3000
    Injectors $450
    Fuel Pump $100
    KPRO $1000
    Tuning $350
