hey guys, i was thinking about turboing my GSR. i have plenty of time so i dont wanna rush and blow it up. i wanted to get all the internals and have them put in at the same time anyone kno of a site with a set-up or refrences of good parts?

second question, i kno the gsr can handle a fair amount now what parts should i get to be able to run my turbo all day everyday(example around town 4-8psi: track 20+)

 

I'll catch this before you get lit up by the typical angry poster on here.

1.) The amount of psi you run is not relevant. It is the power that kills motors.
2.) Make a power goal for yourself, not a psi goal. Then buy the parts needed to get you there.
3.) A small turbo running alot of psi will put out the same power as a big turbo running a little psi.
4.) Go to the Forced Induction section and start clicking on every link possible that you can and just read. No need to post just yet. Just read read read. When you come across something you don't really understand and would like more info. click on the red "search" button in the top right hand corner of your screen. Refine to the search to the Forced Induction section and read everything that comes back.
5.) Get a general concensus about what is good and what is bad. People blow a lot of smoke out of their asses on here so you have to see what the typical idea is.
6.) Just stay away from cheap products... i.e. SSAutochrome, etc. Do a search on that name and you'll see why.
7.) Buy good quality parts and build it right the first time. Yes it will be more expensive, but it will last you longer and save you money in the end.
8.) Cheap and realiable is not fast
Fast and cheap is not reliable
Fast and reliable is not cheap
^^^Always remember that!
