Turbo'ing a ZC or a6...Not sure which one yet, but it will be one of the two. I am getting the Greddy kit, but I need to know what else I need to do in order to boost safely. Here is what I have so far:

-Greddy SOHC (D-Series) Turbo Kit ($1500)
-DSM Injectors (These just wire right in, right? Or do I have to restrict/modify them?) (Which DSM injectors? My friend has a 1g 2.0L Talon for a parts car, and is willing to give me the injectors. He also has a 1g 1.8L Eclipse and will give them to me. Any difference, and these are the ones I want right?)
-BOV ($150-$200)
-Not boosting over like 8psi right now, so no intercooler...yet

What else will I need? S-AFC for fuel management? I also have a z6 intake mani/y8 TB that I might be getting. Would you recommend this, or stick w/ the a6/ZC stock mani/TB? Walboro 255lb, what? I am not sure everything that will be needed, and want to run a reliable daily driven 1/2bar monster .

Thanks guys,
jB

 

bov is included in the kit

 

nah i don't think it is... that's why it's oly $1500

Riggggggggghttttttttt.

So, which DSM injectors are the ones I'm looking for? And what type of cheap fuel management is good?

both 1g and 2g dsm eclipse/talon 5spd turbo cars. those came with 450cc's

EDIT: BTW, I didn't mean the greddy kit is cheap as in cheap quality. I meant it's cheaper (vs a $3000 drag kit), because it doesn't come with an intercooler or blow off valve

What do the 2.0L N/T's have? Will they work, and are they worth it?

 

Also, don't the new Greddy Turbo kits come w/ a FMU? Is that okay to use for now?

 

i think they're like 320cc's or something... i'd go for the 450cc's though

 

Crap man. This turbo project is on a budget, and I don't have the $$$ for the 450's... Know any place I can get them pretty cheap? If I do get the 450's..will they wire right in or am I going to have to do something to make them work?

the greddy kit already comes with injectors??

 

my mistake..i was lloking on a si kit...

 

the 450cc's i got for $50 from a local dsm owner. they will wire in if u hve a 88-91 honda or if u get the resistor box from one of those hondas and wire it inline.

 

So they'll just wire right in to an a6? What about the clips? Can I just break them off and bolt down the fuel rail tight w/ them? What can I use to try to lean out the system a little bit since they are going to make me run rich?

BTW,

Charles. I was the one that talked to you the other day about getting the Greddy kit and meeting you in Orlando. I'm still planning on going w/ you as soon as I get the new one. What kind of injectors do you have available that will work nicely w/ the Greddy kits?

i have greddy injectors and rc injectors.but try http://www.dsmtrader.com...maybe you can get some dsm injectors.as civicryda2k said..they are like $50 bucks (compared to $295)
rc $295 shipped
greddy 25% off list price.
let me know.thanks

 

they'll need either RC clips (i think) or u can go to discount autoparts and get GM Injector Clips, and solder those into ur stock harness. I got them for $3 a piece. You will need a vafc, and a intank fuel pump to use that setup though. The vafc "hack" is detail here. http://www.thedropshop.tv/vafc.htm

thanks for the vafc and bov
