I havent posted much lately so i figured i would start by posting up the begining of my turbo build I know its not the most amazing kit ever but for 1800 bucks its not bad at all. Plus on saturday i got another box of some other misc. parts from some kid super cheap. Now just waiting to get some injectors and a fuel pump so i can order my ecu
Let me know what you think.
The current parts list so far is:
turbonetics t3/t4 turbo,
cast manifold,
turbonetics evolution wastegate,
hks ssqv bov
treadstone performance fmic and charge piping,
High flow fuel filter,
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator w/ gauge
autometer gauges (boost, egt, oil temp, oil press)
exhaust wrap,
and all the oil/fuel lines and fittings.
still looking for some 440cc injectors and a walbro 255lph fuel pump, let me know if you have anything.


Here are some pics:

I'm assuming you're going for the 200-300whp range?

You should look into some bigger injectors and tuning software.

ccssk8ter11

yeah i am getting bigger injectors as soon as i find some, i think either 440s or 550s, and i am getting tuning software (chrome most likely) but im not gonna order it until i have ALL my parts so the maps will be made to work with the new injectors and fuel pump

deucedeuceEK

messaged ya about some injectors

Attaus

I meant bigger than 440's.. 550's and up man. Chrome sounds good.

ccssk8ter11

why not 440's? im not planning on makin too much power, 200-300 would be good for now, considering i have 185,000 miles on stock internals. i probably will only be boosting 6-8 psi for now.

deucedeuceEK

think of the future, and buy bigger now. trust everyone, im having to buy **** again that I bought not long ago

ccssk8ter11

really? so the bigger ones wont be too much though will they?

deucedeuceEK

their all about or around the same price so it only makes since to buy bigger now

Well, honestly, going a little bigger is fine, but don't buy 1000's. I usually tell guys to give themselves some flexibility, but don't go so big that your sacrificing idle quality to have 300whp. If your likely to sit on this setup a little while I wouldn't go beyond 660's or 770's MAX. JMO.


That's pretty good for the money you spent so far. Take pics the whole way.

FYI. I'm running 1000cc and currently retuned down to 325WHP. No problem with idle what so ever and stays steady at 800rpm. Just my input.

ccssk8ter11

yeah. i still think i will stick a little lower, probably 550s though or somethin i guess. just depends on whats available i guess. yeah i will for sure

RC000E

An injector driver helps the idle quality, but you can always rebuy injectors. If you get 660's or something, you'll never have trouble selling them and just rebuying some 1000's or bigger.

i think you'll be fine with yur 550's
noone told me to buy big when i was putting my setup. some guy told me id never need more than 440's wut an idiot now they wont support more than 12lbs. im gonna go 880s now

ccssk8ter11

yeah, i can always upgrade later if i need to
