What's needed for my car to turbo..
I would only switch out retainers if you're doing so for the purpose of putting in bigger cams and valve springs. Thats a whole nother beast in itself though and if you just plan on 6lbs I wouldnt bother.
Okay so I know I need to P&P, turbo head studs, and what else do you think? I know I need the turbo with the pipig and all that, but what would my block, heads, etc need? Thanks for the help man!
No problem. Honestly if your only going to be running 6lbs and have a fairly healthy motor I wouldnt mess with the HG (any more than that and I'd say go for it Cometic HG and ARP head studs, they usually will do you justice). As for the head if you want more power than the 6lbs get cams, cam gears, valve springs/retainers (so much you can do here and if you get a hold of a Vtec head even more so). With the block same rules apply if you want more than 6lbs pistons/rods etc can all be upgraded if you want. Keep in mind all of this stuff is not cheap and it's going to be a handful just working out the bugs of boosting it in the first place.
