build your own turbo kit
 
is it possible to build your own turbo kit.

if so it will cost me peanuts to build one of the baddest setups arround. as Asias biggest scrap yard is in my town. wheare they are selling gt40s & t3 for like 10 USD and intercoolers and other stuff as well for almost dirt cheap rates. so finding the main components is gona be realy simple.


if so is the case will you guys be able to help me out build my setup.

yeah, how do you think a kit is designed? someone builds their own original setup first, usually a company with alot of funding

:edit: ^ that guys idea is good, do that!

No there not serious, building a kit like your talking about is quite a big job. Not to mention labor and fabrication intensive. If you want bolt on there are only a hand full of options, cheapest is a used GReddy kit, and even these are not straight forward, you need to find a tuning option, have enough fuel, and have everything else up to the task, including your wallet. Apart from a leaf blower there are no magic spells or tricks to it.

PS definitely acquaint yourself with the search button all this information is on this site and definitely get the RX7 setup out of your head thats like getting John Holmes and Luci Lu to fit, it`s just physically impossible

a T3 exhaust manifold from a subaru is a direct bolt on, then get a skyline downpipe, you will be fine. Just make sure you get new cams and forged rods.
