Default What else do I need?

I've been trying to get ready to go turbo and here's everything that I've got so far.
Garret T3/T4
Turbonetics manifold
Deltagate wastegate w/ 6psi spring
downpipe
Spearco intercooler
BOV
all piping
Vortech 12.1 FMU

What else do I need to get to run it on my b20z? I'm tight on cash as of right now, so I need just the basics. I tried to search but it's not working as of right now. Thanks to all that reply.

I would get a tial wastegate over the delta. delta's are known for having problems. I'd also get some 310 cc injectors.

oil feed and return, unless you're going on the dyno right away to tune, some good gauges would be a good idea. i would recommend oil pressure, boost, and EGT guages. some people also get the a/f gauge but most say it is very inaccurate.

Egt, boost gauge (essential), don't bother with autometer a/f its garbage, if you want a/f go with greddy (pricey though).

Also INLINE pump or you will be lean as hell... try to get inline with stock pump, NO just walbro intank (this is always debated but whatever imo). 310cc injectors would be nice if you have LS block, s or v afc if you don't want standalone hondata or ems's.

hmm what else... air filter or piping for the compressor so you don't have a "small child" wire mesh filter like me till I get a slim fan to fit something else... and a few hundred $$ on the side JUST in case :D

This is what comes with a Drag Gen 3 kit:

Turbonetics T3/04e hybrid turbocharger
4 into 1 cast turbo manifold
Turbonetics Deltagate wastegate
Drag 2.5 inch down pipe
Wastegate dump tube
Spearco front mount intercooler
Chrome one piece intercooler and turbo piping
Bosch High flow performance fuel pump
Vortech boost dependent fuel pressure regulator (fmu)
HKS Super Sequential blow-off valve
All necessary plumbing
MAP bypass valves
High flow intake filter and piping

Aluminum Oil return line (tig weld this to your oil pan)

Oil feed line
Brass fittings for oil feed line (goes to back of block - oil pressure sending unit)
You can get these 2 things at-----
http://www.inlinepro.com/products/fr...ProductId=3594
703.644.1788 http://www.inlinepro.com

Like stated before, an EGT and boost gauge would be really nice. dont waste your money on a cheap a/f gauge.

I had big problems with the check valves that came with my Drag Gen III kit. They are the same thing that comes with a fish tank so that you don't get water in your air pump. I went and bought a MISSING LINK. I believe Synapse Engineering makes them. I ordered it thru Nippon. This keeps the map sensor from reading any boost. You might think about getting one of those. They are around 70 bucks and will keep you from running in limp mode because of your map sensor. I believe they were designed specifically for Honda's with Turbo's but I could be wrong. I put it on my car and it took care of that problem of the map sensor.

I also put a holley 255 in my car instead of using the inline and I am running really lean. Changing back to the stock pump with the AIRTEX in line pump.

get the missing link map bypass sensor from
www.importparts.com
or
www.overboost.com
I agree, the check valves that come with the drag kits suck ***.

They blow out very easy and when they do that the map sensor reads boost and goes into Limp mode. They blowout so quickly because they weren't made for a car. They are actually made for a fish tank air pump so that water doesn't get in your air pump. The instructions I downloaded from overboost said to not even install them. They tell you to get some from NAPA which are a better quality. I blew out the ones that came with the kit on my first test drive. The ones from NAPA are better, but you will most likely blow those out also. You could try those from Napa and see, but to save you time, and hassle I would go with the Missing LInk.
