SiLVeRE8's turbo install thread!
i can finally have the chance to own a boosted 8!
i just received the used greddy turbo kit in the mail a couple of days ago! i have been wanting to take the FI path for a long time now, but never really got a chance to jump on a used turbo kit with a great deal
. there is still a list of stuff i need to get for the kit before i can start installing.
i am looking forward to get this kit completely installed within this month or next month as i am not really in a rush because i dont have much free time, but i will keep everyone updated when i get some new toys on the way. it would also be nice to receive some help from some FI veterans during my install! Thanks in advance!
list of parts i currently have installed:
ACT prolite flywheel
ACT heavy duty clutch
AFE short shifter
RB test pipe
Borla exhaust (might be up for sale soon as i might be heading towards the HKS hi-power route)
HKS twin power DLII amplifier
Yukon ignition coils (self fabricated bracket)
MSD 8.5 mm ignition wires (self put together)
Sun voltage stabilizer
Lineage ignition ground wires
Agency power pulley
Agency power ss clutch line
Revi intake and duct (for sale soon)
Mazdaspeed strut bar
Prosport boost, oil press, oil temp gauge
list of parts which i still need to gather to start the turbo install:
Upgraded silicone couplers
Upgraded T-bolt clamps
HKS SSQV BOV or Synapse synchronic BOV
AEM intake
COBB Accessport with MM FI map
Greddy oil pan
Greddy profec B spec II boost controller
Oil return line gasket (purchased)
Heat wrap and maybe ceramic coat
Maybe some miscellaneous bolts and screws (we shall see)
(if anyone has any of the parts i need, feel free to pm me)
list of parts i plan to get in the future:
Agency power silicone radiator hose
Upgraded intercooler
Cusco catch can
Upgraded radiator (still debating which one)
BHR/MM turbo upgrade
upgraded injectors
but for now here is a pic of my current setup under the hood... which will soon be different!

congrats
I would recommend however, buying a catch can for the initial install....better safe than sorry...you can even buy one on ebay for 10 bucks...they all work the same.
