sub'd for taco boost

 

Bump for some details...

 

Popcorn af

 

I'm just getting started boosted daily driver.

 

Good luck i think most, myself included, will recomend a 2nd vehichle for while u are in the process especially if ur doin most or all the fab work urself... My truck was down nearly 4 months (only worked a night or 2 a week on it with another guy, sometimes 2 other guys but not often)

 

Yeah that makes sense I can do the oil pan bung in the same day put the manifold and the turbo together to measure the downpipe coming from the turbo and I can install the intercooler and still drive it but we know how these projects go I'm sure I'm gonna need another car

 

Good luck!

 

Nice. What set up you going to run?

 

Yeah i imagine a straight 4 would be way easier than fabbin a crossover and up pipe amd save a lot of down time

 

I have to start with the ebay turbo GT30 copy I'll run 6 to 8 psi

 

Have u already bought it? If not whats ur budget and have u thought about buying used. People with factory turbos upgrade and would prolly sell an oem pretty cheap just a thought. U can get a new Borg warner s200 series for less than $600 btw but its a t4, so u would have to get a t3-t4 adapter if the manifold comes with a t3 flange

 

I haven't bought it yet and $300 was the budget just to get started. The manifold is being made t3. Its going to be a little while before I get the turbo so if i can find a used one and rebuild that would be good too.

 

Suuuuuuubd

 

LCE makes a turbo kit for the 3rz. Complete with manifold etc

 

Its just like when i was riding I started out with a cheap dirt bike that was street legal and ended up with the Ninja.

 

CHeck out this fs add on CT. Good deal for what he is selling.
