im a noob at boost haha
but i have stock internals and am looking to just boost my b16a with a small garrett T3 .42/.48 turbo.
whatr all do i need. do i need to get a better fuel pump like a walbro 255 and do i have to get injectors??

thanks guys.

 

What is your power goal? You will definently need some bigger injectors, Intercooler, BOV, Wastegate (if your turbo doesnt have an internal wastegate, possibly a boost controller and tune! I know this isnt everything but its a start. When you post your hp goal, we'll be able to help more. Also, you might not need a walbro if not going over 300hp.

 

i wish injectors werent so much $$
im not gonna bolt every thing up until i have cash for a tune that same weekend.
i dont have a hp goal. i just wanna go boost and have it reliable.

 

Well your map compressor wont read over 11psi unless you upgrade but on stock internals anything more on a dd might be trouble depending on how you run it. Get dsm 450cc injectors, you can get them on ebay for a good price and those should work fine for your setup. But dont skimp on the wastegate, bov, and intercooler. Your gonna spend more money upgrading them or fixing the things that they broke. A good tune will make your setup last a lot longer.

 

alright thanks. what all do i need?
besides mani/turbo/bov/wastegate/oil line/intercooler/piping/downpipe/injectors???

 

You need to check on the FAQs at the beginning of this thread to really get into detail. great info there for those that haven't done it before.

You need to have a goal (HP, need, budget, etc) or you'll waste your own time. plan it first... THEN do it.

 

You would be better off buying a kit w/ everything you need. Some kits include injectors. You should definently plan it out before you get in over your head

 

I'm kinda in the same boat as you here, except I've done a couple hours of research. I have the exhaust set up for a turbo, and did a GSR cam swap into my EM1 (which I highly recommend dude). Basically, don't try to cut corners. eBay can be your best friend or nightmare. Try to get name brand stuff...usually there's tons of ppl trying to move parts much faster in the forums than on eBay, so you can probably find better deals there.

I'm hoping to have my set up by the summer at the latest.

 

alright guys thanks. im gonna save up and get everything i need.
