hi everyone,
Im looking for some info on what have people used when putting a turbo kit on their b16/a such as turbo,intercooler,wastegate,blow off valve etc
Have yee used branded turbos or chineese ? all the ins and outs pics will also help I am mechanically minded so shoot away. the setup as is skunk2 throttle body pro series intake, 550cc injectors, oem fuel rail, skunk2 cams on a b16a sir block run by an apexi power fc ecu may have left some bits out. basically id like in around 300-400 bhp. no hate only advice and experience will be taken serious.
thanks

 

Tonnes of documentation and experiences that have been detailed on B series turbo across these forums. Search Google or the search in the top right.

To sum up the entire thing for you - eBay kit/parts if you want to have immediate issues with fitment, and things not working as advertised. I also guarantee you'll have issues with parts failing either on the dyno or shortly after you start driving on the kit that you'll end up needing to upgrade/swap. Basically you'll end up spending the same amount of money chasing and fixing problems caused by the eBay crap as you would if you just went with a decent turbo kit int he first place.

Go-Autoworks makes nice full kits. Full-Race also has a couple. Otherwise, SpeedFactory, Neukin, Sheepy, and a few other companies also still make nice turbo manifolds.

My advice - Buy a Go-Autoworks street kit, and have nothing to worry about.

 

Ideal thanks for the advice the names you gave me will help.
