A local shop is going to get me and install a Greddy turbo/intercooler I know I have to change my cat-back (still running stock but I have the Skunk2 N1 sitting in my garage) I know the header is included. Also I have to upgrade the Fuel stuff like fuel rail, fuel filter, etc. What about the Ing. system (I have vitek ing. wire and NGK plat. sparkplugs). Do I have to uprade anything internal (engine)? There going to set the turbo at 6-7 PSI and also they going to tune it...

Oh yeah I have 99 Acura Integra GS non-VTEC automatic tranny with about 36K on the car. I hope this well help

fuel rail isn't necessary. The spark plugs are good if they're colder than stock, but the wires probably won't do much. I'm using my OEM ones, and they're fine. they're going to set it at 6-7 psi? Which? because the WG should already be set to around 6 psi. hope they're not screwing you on that. Make sure they use a boost controller, at least, if they raise the psi above "stock." As long as they tune it well and don't go crazy when upping the boost, your internals should be fine. Oh, and might want to get a new fuel pump. I don't know how good the GS one is, but my EX pump couldn't do **** at 5.5 psi. I detonated like crazy until i stuck in a 255 lph. Good luck! let us know how it goes and all. . . .

there giving me the boost controller for free so Im set on that somebody from my other car club said something about bearings I should change them.

 

i dont understand why people go buy a turbo and not know anything about it

you dont want ngk platiunum AT ALL
copper conducts better than platinum. get NGK BKR-7E spark plugs.

 

not talking crap, but knowledge is a must here. But thats what this board is here for
