Default Looking to boost my B16.

Hey. I finally decided boost is for me I'm looking to start peicing together a turbo system here within the next couple months and I just want to double-check on some things that I need.

Parts: Manifold, turbo, downpipe, wastegate, intercooler, bov, vafc-hack, tubing.

Now I know there are a bunch of oil lines or something that come with turbo kits and I don't understand all of that, so some explaining on that would help.

Also, what would be a safe amount of boost to run daily on the stock bottom end of a B16?

What turbo would you recommend? 14B is too small? T3?

Basically im looking for someone to give me a complete rundown. I searched around but couldn't find anything that had all the info I need.

If any turbo experts are willing to devote some time to this discussion on AIM, my screen name is: Si2000 VTEC

Thanks in advance,

all you need is one oil supply line and one return line. the supply line is T off of your oil pressure sensor. this is above your oil filter. i think you need a 21 or 22 mm wrench to take it off.

here are some pics and **** to help you. this is my car

also if you do your oil pan like i did mine you should move it further to the left but always keep it high.



that little thing above where the oil filter goes is the oil pressure sensor.
