Default turbo information

so i dont know much about turbos, but i heard that u can put them on without the intercooler....which would make buying one alot cheaper. just wondering if that is possible and is it really worth it? is so what parts do i need beside the turbo?

yes its possible. but why. It wont make it alot cheap. JRC 6"(tall) go for like 150 or so. Cooler air= better hp

so youd need

turbo mani
turbo
downpipe
i/c piping
i/c
couplers and clamps
bov
wastgate if the turbo isnt internally wastegated, possibly dumptube, not need tho
injectors, depenging on whp goal
oil feed line
oil return line
maybe a boost controller
boost gauge to be safe
arp head studs to prevent head lift, to be safe
a turbo head gasket, cometic or golden eagle would be wise
a clutch

thats prolly about it on the safer and more detailed setup.
