YA ss yeller is helping me out we have been pming back and fourth on a parts list i was thinking about going with the GT30RS turbo. Just hard to find websites with good quality parts. Tryed looking on the vendor page here but cant seem to find to many sites besides the Dejon house of poer site an it seems kind of skechty to me lol.
my ideal goal is spend 3000-3500 but wouldnt mind only spending 2500. only thing i have going for me right now is might be able to use my 60lb injectors i have on her now. Everything else is zzp stage 3 and i have a few other mods as well i guess i could sell to help make this build happen. Dam u guys i never should have checked out this thread lol its just making my need for speed worse lol. I almost forgot abou the tvs at this point

you can definitely offset the cost by selling your SC stuff.
TTR, Hahn, GM, ZZP, RD Fabs, Vulcan all make Intake manifolds,
TTR, Hahn, Gm ZZP, RD Fabs, Vulcan all make exhaust manifolds
that will cover approx. $1000
Turbo's are universal, all turbos can fit all cars with the right parts
going with an internally gated will also save you money and time here
turbo will be anywhere from $350-???
injectors
your 60s should do fine for the hp you are shooting for but I suggest a return style fuel system, which doesnt take a full kit, you just need a fuel pressure regulator, fuel grade or higher hose and fuel rail fittings that come from OTTP. If you want I can give you details to my setup and all of the parts that you will need.
Intercooler piping/intercooler
You can purchase a kit from Hahn, ZZP, TTR, or you can buy one or two kits from ebay, I say 2 because you will get more bends that way and that makes it easier. If you are decent with a table saw, welder, grinder, various power tools, you can modify the cheaper parts to work correctly
You do not need anything larger than 2.5" piping so dont even hear otherwise, you will only need 3" in your maf area. You can buy a maf tube or modify your CAI to work
the intercooler itself, I personally use Mishimoto but for the average user the basic intercooler will get you to where you wanna go, just measure your space inside your front bumper so you know what to fit, and DO NOT FORGET the brackets, you dont want to drag your intercooler around
BOV
you can use any BOV you choose just make sure you get the correct flange for your piping
just dont rush it and make sure everything fits and doesnt rub, be smart about it all and it will be great, if you search you can most definitely do this for between 2500 and 3500 easily, cheaper if you can buy some used parts
Anyone know anything or hear good things about Precision turbo's or if they will even fit on our cars ? the one i want is priced at 600 it seems a bit low for a good quality turbo unless im wrong here dont know that much. figured the info below would help u more indepth turbo guys help me find the answer
