new turbo set-up
Im an all motor guy and always will be, but I've come to realize that's its just way to expensive. Ive done a lot of researched into what the best set-up would be for my car but i wanted your guys input and for you to tell me if I've missed anything out. This is the set-up...Garrett T3/TO4E turbo, Garrett front mount 24"x6"x3.5", inter-cooler piping and intake, Tial 38mm waste-gate .6bar spring (around 9 psi), Tail 50mm bov, walbro 255lph fuel pump, 550cc injectors, custom turbo manifold, custom 3" down-pipe to 2.5". For now i will be tuning it with my vafc piggyback...i know this isn't the greatest but i wont be able to get emanage for a while. Is there anything else i should think about, and for ppl that are running boost on a stock block and stock internals..are you running anything more than 8-10 psi? Also these are the specs on the turbo, i was wondering if this would go well for what i want to do-COMPRESSOR SPECS:
flow: 46 lbs/min 588cfm
50 TRIM WHEEL
TURBINE SPECS:
.63 A/R HOUSING
STAGE 3 WHEEL
oil lubricated centersection.
I will eventually be getting the emanage ultimate to tune but i cant afford another grand so i may just wait.
I know theres a few things missing like oil lines turbo timer etc...but i need honest opinions as this is going to be my first turbo build

Get a catch can and redo your pcv setup. There's a long, but really good thread about the pcv system floating around here. It's a must read for boost.

that looong thread will confuse the f-word out of you since everyone pretty much posted every wrong setup possible in there too.
happy boosting.
honestly, to the original poster, be patient, and do everything right the first time. the last thing you (and the rest of us turbo guys) want is your rushed setup blowing up, and having you go back to the NA world saying that turbo's suck.
