Ok i said what would i need to make a custum turbo kit (obviously to save money) and do it saftely which means i wont be spending hundreds and thousands more on making everything perfect. i just wan a lil boost cuz i know with out all the tunnig and other crap 6psi would prolly be safe. so please let me know what to do so i can have it running good and safe no probs. and what turbo and how to get it all to work. (junkyard parts i guess)

 

here is what i can think of off the top of my head

t3t4 turbo..57trim. 60.63a/r ? i dunno its been awhile
2.5inch or 3inch downpiple
exernal wastegate
blow off valve
some type of exhaust
turbo manifold..(drag, rev hard, full race...)
boost gauge
intercooler piping
some injectors 440cc and up higer
some type of clutch
intercooler

and more important..tuning!!!!!
-hondata s200, neptune, chrome, urbdata...dont be cheap on this and findone who knows what their doing

i dunno how much this will run you but my setup cost me $3000-$3500 with tuning on the dyno.

you will be able to run 10psi daily its all on tuning

 

My buddy is making 8psi boost with a turbo off a supra, intercooler and bov off a evo, crome chiped ecu, manual boost controler, boost gauge, bigger injectors, new stage one clutch. I think he spent bout 2000. A lot of the parts like intercooler pipping, couplers and **** like that were taken from leftover part round the shop. Although i would suggest buying a set we spent a lot of time working out gliches and smoothing out stuff. But if you have the time it saves a lot of money. He also street tunded it.

 

I sourced a lot of my used parts off the for sale section and a few new parts in the sponsor section. Look into getting dsm injectors, lot of people sell those. I got a used turbonetics wastegate from someone here. Lot of people complain about boost creep with these but I haven't experienced it. I bought a used t3 turbo from spooled motorsports. My entire setup cost me about $1300, mostly used stuff running only 5psi. I originally planned on running an fmu and missing link and I'm sure if you run only 6psi you'll be safe, but thought it through and realized getting a proper tune would be the most beneficial and important part of my setup. Just take your time and search for the parts you need.
