carshateme Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Turbo (generally a T3 or T3/T4 will do) Wastegate (Internal or external) Manifold Turbo downpipe Flange Bolts for turbo and downpipe flange Downpipe Braided oil lines with fittings 2.5" Pipe for charge pipes Connectors and clamps for pipes BOV and flange (Again DSM would be cheap ~$50, will hold 19psi with the top crushed) FMU (I'd go cartech adjustable personally) go with an SAFC 2 Bigger Injectors Bigger Injectors (DSM450's would be an excellent idea) Inline/In tank pump Boost controller (I'd go Greddy Profec) MSD-DIS 2this should read MSD BTM TB Plenum Lots of misc vaccum hose Rubber Fuel lines for FPR Oil and oil filter (for the obvious reason) Gaskets Gasket sealer Air filter Intercooler (optional, but worth it) Some spare metal brackets for custom mounting the Intercooler Misc bolts (self tapping), and Nut/bolt combos Gauge pod Boost Gauge, EGT gauge (optional but smart to have one) (If you have a profec boost controller the boost gauge is unnecessary as its built in) , Heres your list New build coming soon.

rocking.that.eclipse Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Is there even room in your engine bay for a twin turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-train-13k Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 i think the question is...do you know anything about engine modifications? i hope you know that using a twin turbo set up. your head bolts are going to rip right off. you should do way more research. most people dont buy bolt on turbo kits. unless they are just looking for small gains. if your buying a twin turbo set up you should just make your own pipes as well your going to have to buy bigger injectors, bigger alt, bigger fuel pump, and a laundry list of other things that your engine will need to just keep up with the added air in the your cylinders. those most likely wont come in the turbo kit.

ZachAdams Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 ^ not true, low boost/stock engine setups are common. same as supercharging a stock ls1 4.6 ect.. boost is boost and any internal combustion engine can be boosted its all a question to what extent. -Zach- '88 K5 - '01 cbr929rr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 What engine is it and what condition is it in? I wouldn't boost a motor with 200k original miles. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
