You have started tones of threads of late but in not one of them have you told people what you have. No one will be able to help you until you tell us what you have. For example what turbo kit have you got? What engine management are you using or what 5th injector driver? You need to tell us these basic things. Or if you dont know what it is you have post a few photos of it. Once you have done this then there are many people who can help. A few of your questions you have replies to but again you post the questions for some reason? Have a look at your old threads for replies. Also have a try on the search at the top of the page as most of your questions have lost of posts on them already.

I think the answer to all his questions are as follows:
If you don't know the answers you shouldn't be doing it !!!!

Probably a bit harsh......
But I would certainly hope there was the ability to show and demonstrate some basic knowledge, especially if your planning on setting out to do this turbo saxo yourself
Under no circumstances is it going to be bolt it up and drive away from gaining answers
There's a lot more technical variables to look at.
Do you know the power you want to make, do you know how to calculate injector size required, do you even understand how a turbo makes power vs a NA motor.
Are answers to random none specific answers going to give you the knowledge to do it safely personally I don't think so...

With respect deweyryan, you need to either let someone else do this for you, or read up a LOT more on the forums about what's involved. You seem to be asking questions (the same ones basically), not listening to the answers, then coming up with your next question.

Spend a few weeks just reading here. There's plenty of cars now done in all forms, from the most tight of budgets through to deep-pocket builds.

What's harsh about what I said above?

I speaketh the truth. Research first, or pay later. Simples.

Research = less money/time/effort/blood/tears

Judging by the posts here and in the other threads, the OP hasn't done much of the "research" part of that equation. The experienced members tend to always help those people who pose thought out, well defined specific questions. If you post up "how do I route my boost pipes?" as above, you've clearly not searched here, or on other forums, as there's dozens of pictures and posts on the layout people use...

That's not harsh at all - it's the truth.

have to say i agree, within a few hours on the internet you can find out a lot of information based around what you are trying to achieve, either by reading what other people have done, what other companies have done, or reading through other peoples questions. looking at pictures of installations, progress blogs etc.

by all means reading doesnt make you an expert, far from it, but will at least give you some idea of what needs to be done, and enough knowledge to at least make the basic descisions yourself... and work out who you need to ask for the more complicated items.
