I wouldn't have an opinion on whether to "slap it on" or not, as much as I'd have one to get it tuned if you did.

Just do it, but make sure you take the proper steps to prepare your engine for that turbo kit, and get the thing tuned.

 

all you need to do is get a thicker head gasket.....an oil return line from your oil pan to your turbo and youll be fine...

other than that get a gasket for your cast manifold thats NOT siliconed..

 

make sure u get it tuned so ur not at like 30 psi

he won't be at 30 psi unless his wastegate is set that way.



OP: by "Badass" deal I hope you don't mean you found an XS turbo on ebay for $700.

Once again, depending on the turbo size and trim, 10psi can make 220whp.

^^^ Umm...

 

junkyard turbo huh? looks like a dsm side mount, a greddy cat iron log mani,and some rc injectors, btw that setup is not near complete, crome, go tune it and check that turbo for shaft play................really there is nothing in that turbo kit worth money


and since there idiots on here that never have turboed a car but talk **** ie 95ej1
ek forever


you obviously need a bov, rolles eyes these noobs are idiots,

plus i see a few spots to were boost leak will be a problem and i dont see an internal w/g on that thing was it removed?

 

downpipe?
oil lines?
BOV?
Shaftplay?

and emanagement will run rich. get a better standalone system ie Crome, Neptune, Hondata, something.

none of those are standalosne systems....................aem ems is a standalone system


crome is a chip in system as is uberdata , emanage is known aas a pigy back which is a pieace of ****

hondata again kinda known as a pggy back/chip its bordline but its adjustable which is great bit it costs more than his entire ghettho kit!

neptune is realtively new hondata with more ****?????


since he says its a d16a6 i belive its running obd0 unless he converted it, but if he is obd0 he needs to run turboedit

 

well i jus bought the greddy emanage off a kewl dude he let it go for 80 but **** i know hondata cost some cash... i have all the lines and downpipe jus need B.O.V jus tryna have some fun wit tha kit and sell it later till i save for a full swap

 

id get your money back for everything and just invest in some stock or something i mean you spent 280 for the shittest turbo kit ive seen (no offesne) its not a good idea to bolt that thing up to your car


im not trying to be an *** but trust me man been there done that turbo d's are alright but not realible

I don't understand either, you must've done something wrong. Talk to the guys who have done a turbo D the way we'd like to call, "the right way," and many will tell you that a turbo D can easily be reliable.

I'd like to post something useful, but because I drive a stock car I am thus prohibited from posting anything ever. Because we all know people with stock cars clearly no nothing about anything and don't have the right to post in regards to car modifying.
