dont need injectors or boost controller if youre just running low psi like 5-6psi or whatever your wastegate spring is.

headpipe? do you mean manifold?

you will need a downpipe and some fuel management... ie. crome, uberdata..

thanks you guys! where could i find uberdata or CROME... i have a chip for a P28... but i got it from a friend... would that interfere with the management? the chip isnt in... i just have it.

dont bother with the chip you have. you'll need to socket your ECU to accept 28 pin EPROMS for uberdata, chrome ETC. theres a shitload of people who tune all the different freewares. **** you would be better off with a basemap than any kind of FMU.

Youll need oil lines and return lines.

you still need vacum lines, and you will need a oil bung for your pan.

what is the name of the company that you are getting this from? And where are you getting this? Please don't say SSAUTOCHROME or something like that?

Haha. Go to the forced induction classifieds and see if anyone is selling a gently used turbokit for cheap. Undoubtedly, someone will be able to convert you to the dark side for less than $1500
