how long will i last?
im tired of driving a slow *** car and my friend has a turbo and manifold... i think... i have a SI 93 delsol, the plan was just to put the turbo on, run the oil line, and run no intercooler, how long do you think my engine will last and how much psi should i run. i was thinking like 5 or 6

Without A Fuel Management not a long time... It looks to me that you think u can just put a manifold on and slap a turbo on it and run some Piping but its alot more then that...
If you want to turbo a car and expect it to last you need a nice chunk of change.... There is always something more that you need in order to make ur turbo project work properly.
So I suggest doing some homework and look Into a good fuel management system and maybe the motor will last...

What is the turbo size, a/r, t3? also, what manifold is it?
You are forgetting pipe couplers, oil return line, tapping the pan for oil return line, downpipe, misc bolts, might as well throw on a SMIC from a dsm and an FMU of some sort, like vortech.
And untuned, your car probally won't last too long. Mine lasted 3 months before it blew up.
Now I'm tuned, and no problems so far. . .
