Ok, i KNOW there are a few threads regarding 'what do i need to turbo my car' but i want to get them all consilidated to one concise thread that lists ONLY what is necessary for a motor to handle more then 6-12 lbs (which a stock motor can handle). I'm looking to build up a motor in the VERY NEAR future and a few other members are looking to build in the coming year.
Now i assume that seans turbo kit will be used. This would include turbo, header, downpipe. What i'm looking for is pistons, rings, rods, rod bearings, crank (if necessary), valve springs, valves, injectors, fuel pump, FPR, spark plugs, plug wires, Ignition controler, boost regulator (not home made) blow off valve, FMIC and others. I'd like to get a variety of choices so we have some choice as to price and availability. I'm not looking for custom parts if possible. I dont wanna have to pay $400 for a set of custom pistons if at all possible. Also, i'm looking for whats really necessary. Gauges and other visual goodies are not required to have a turbo charged car so they're lower on my list of things to get.
PLEASE LIST PARTS AND/OR PART NUMBERS ONLY. Keep the whoring down to a minimum please. I'm looking for this to end up as a technical type thread if possible.
