Re: turbo
 

What are your current mods? There is no way you can just "bolt it on" and expect it to work.

Re: turbo
 

i was told it has a fuel pump. why wouldn't it work?

Re: turbo
 

For starters you will need a different exhaust manifold just to get it on the car. Then you will need the supporting mods to make it work properly. Higher flowing injectors, tuning device, exhaust, intake, higher flowing fuel pump, boost controler, intercooler pipes etc...

What kind/size turbo is that anyway?

Re: turbo
 

It's a 50 trim. my buddy said it would bolt right up. how much is all this stuff gunna cost? and could someone install it for me?

Re: turbo
 

tons of options for installers. DB, LSE, MAP, etc.

i'm assuming those are initials? who are they?

Re: turbo
 

They're local shops around here. That turbo is NOT going to just "bolt on" to your car in any way, shape, or form. Your "buddy" took you for a ride. Your going to need a new manifold, v-band downpipe and new exhaust, new intake, modify your intercooler piping, get new oil lines.... And that's just to get it on the car. The list of supporting mods that you'll need is even longer.... Do some research first before you get flamed off the face of the planet

Re: turbo
 

See the vendors section on here. DB Performance, LSE Performance, Modern Automotive Performance.

Before you go calling them though, I would seriously do some research.

Use correct grammer and :search:

Re: turbo
 

Oh sorry dood. Didn't know it was like that. Well can someone give me the numbers to these places at least? And how much hp will this turbo put out?

Re: turbo
 

Um, looks like we will have a sweet parts car thread coming up soon.

Check the sponsor sections of the forums.

The numbers are on the main page next to the names of the companies.

Re: turbo
 

You need thousands of dollars in mods before your car will even be able to handle that turbo, buy something realistic for your situation (unless you do want to drop some serious cash).

Re: turbo
 

If I were you I would do some serious research and find out if that's what you really want to do first. The amount of money and time you are going to be putting into this isn't a over night job. You should post your supporting mods. A fuel pump isn't hooked up on the turbo as well, it's a very different part for your car. It was going to cost me about a good $1,000.00 to have everything for my upgrade, including supporting mods and so.

Try using the www.vfaq.com website first to understand what you are getting into.
