I have been contemplating this for too long. i think its time. im going to put a list here add anything you want. and if you have anything for sale for cheap lmk.

ok so im trying to piece together a full kit for around 1000 not including tuning.[:p]

we shall see if it can be done.

LIST:
Turbo- already got for $40... very minimal shaft play. only axial. means no up and down shaft play. i think i got an awesome deal here. trying to figure out what the flange is though. It is an old Garret(airresearch) turbo off of an izuzu turbo bus. haha


Intercooler-

42lb Injectors-

oil lines and fittings-

Water lines and fittings-

Wastegate-

Blow off valve-

Piping-

manifold & downpipe- 200 from a member

downpipe- see above

Tapped oil pan-

boost gauge- free with turbo

a/f gauge- free for christmas

I already looked at my other options and this is what i want to do so please dont clutter the thread saying you should go with this kit or that kit...

any other help i am welcomed to having. hope to update you guys some more.

Get us a real pic of the turbo. Put a soda can next to it so we can see how big it is. Might be a little big for your car if it's off of a bus...
