Turbo Help

[duggy]

Im getting a turbo kit from my mate. it consists of the turbo on the mani pipe and the intercooler with all the addition pipes i need...

i want to know what else i will need?? any help or advice would be nice... i know quite a bit about engines but not when it comes to turboing :P

and i want to know where i could get a new decompression plate from as my mate said i should get one.


thanks in advance

what about pistons,rods? standalone

[duggy]

i mean things i actually need to run the turbo.... putting a diesel gearbox on for the time being too

Defo engine management, oil return pipes etc etc, possibly uprated internal (although not sure)....

what power do you want and how reliable do you want it?

You will need standalone, bigger injectors, oil cooler, better exhaust, clutch, downpipe, some sort of dump valve.

But before you even start that you will need good brakes and suspension.

need sophia bush to tell u wat ya need ect mate depends on wat boost you will be running i think anythink over 7 psi iirc is max internals can take befor u have to start uping pistons ect , as for the gasket serch sophia bush check the all you need for a turbo thread or scroll down on this section its usualy up top quite alot explanes wat you need to know

[saxmad88]

you can run 10 psi on a decomp plate, but the best way will be low compression pistons, use them and standard rods and you can see 280 bhp easy, as long as the rest is up to scratch!

I think your best to start with listing exactly what parts your getting. There individual type model and spec is best.

i'm sure it's 11psi on the decomp plate, i'm probably wrong does any1 know?
