How much would you say you've spent on all your turbo items?
You going to use any different injectors?

 

[ffspeed3]

I've spend right at $1000, but I had the turbo rebuilt instead of doing it myself so I spend a little extra there. And yes I'm using the same injectors. Ebay and the FS page on here kicked butt on finding parts

 

[anywereiroam]

Holy efff 1000 that's awesome!

 

[ffspeed3]

Yeah man, I'm pretty excited. Going up to my friends this comming week to install it all. Will post pictures after I get home. Oh, and that 1000 includes the new racing clutch. Mine is completly blown so it's time to upgrade. So if you already have a upgraded clutch and rebuild you turbo yourself you looking prolly around 7-800 depending on the deals you find.

 

[anywereiroam]

I got a stock replacement but it new and its exciting to heat that cause
Some guy offered to trade me an obx turbo manifold.for some Honda junk.I.have.

 

[ffspeed3]

Thats a good start, trading for free parts is always a good way to go. This whole build was suppose to take several months, according to my wife, but I sold a whole bunch of crap I had laying around the house on ebay. Basicly the only out of pocket cost I've had on this whole build so far was about 100 bucks. hehehehe

 

[anywereiroam]

I'm just glad stuff that we find to.be scrap or garbage is what others
Are looking for!

 

[ffspeed3]

Couldn't agree more.

 

[ffspeed3]

Install begins tomorrow (mj)

 

[ScratchNSniff]

No windage tray or MSP oil cooler...really only two pieces I see missing...

Still looking for that Corksport Exhaust...just got one in on a car...

 

[ffspeed3]

Oil cooler not needed, and for my oil return I have a oil tap for the oil pan so I don't need the windage tray. And yes I will be needing an exhaust but I am not exactly sure which way I want to go with it yet. I want it to be super quiet, but more noticable than stock.
