ok, since i heard that building your own turbo is cheaper...how do you build one for a sohc?? what do you have to do with the headers? what parts do you need?

 

H-T has all the info you need on starting on your way to boost, try searching on the topic and asking some more direct questions. You'll get a better response to that. It is difficult to asker a broad question.

there's 14 pages of Hack info in there... take some adderall and read it all

 

afc hack = using bigger injectors, ie 450cc, 255 fuel pump, vafc/safc using the afc to tune the injectors and tricking your map sensor to run up to 12 psi of boost without missing link or fmu, someone else probably can explain this better

It would also help what you plan to do with your turbo setup......ie, how much horsepower and torque you would like to achieve...and if your on a budget or not.....
