HOme made turbo for my LS
alright i wanna know like what type intercooler brand i should get but im definitely gettin a t3 or t4 turbo and like im getting piping at home depot so i wanna know what else kind of stuff should i get like the headers and etc let me know!
By reading your post, your not ready to put together a homemade turbo. You will be better off getting a kit and having someone else install it. You should know that you dont need headers<U></U> for your car and you will never need them for a turbo.

You won't need a wastegate.
Manifold, turbo, piping, BOV, Intercooler, fuel management, boost controller.
With all of these parts you should be good to go.

The pressure will be let out thru the BOV...I assume when people say wastegate they mean EXTERNAL...in which you don't need one.

You are really wrong
The bov help out compressure surge when the throttle plate closes. It does nonething to control boost. Is you don't want a wastegate that external and have to worry about a dump tube. Get a turbo with a internal wastegate.

I guess you only have experience with internal wastegates? He will need a wastegate, whether it is an internal or external one.

I guess I'm used to using DSM turbos for a DIY turbo kit like the 14b, T25, T28killer which have internal wastegates.</TD></TR></TABLE>
Shut the **** up.
Internal Wastegate is still a wastegate. You need one to control boost.

So as soon as you hit your peak boost you are going to shift.... sounds like a good idea to me
