custom turbo or turbo kit

[92CX LS]

well im gettin a hks turbo timer a dual gauge pod a boost gauge and air to fuel ratio gauge and 440 rc injectors

 

[posol]

a/f gauge is worthless.

get a wideband like the innovative LM-1 or the PLx m-300

 

[92civicb18b1]

I'd say get a plx m-300 for a wideband. Just my personal choice.

I have a whole thread on my downhill turbo battle.

 

[92CX LS]

i've been doin some research and i found this one place called evans-tuning and all told me to get a full-race turbo kit. they said its one of the best turbo kits you can get.

 

[kyleirwin]

full-race is the shit. you won't find a higher quality turbo kit, or a company with better customer support. being as they are top of the line, their kits aren't cheap.

also, i few of you mentioned uberdata... uberdata sucks in comparison to crome as it stands now. it's got a better interface, practically no bugs and just a more solid program.

I too am getting a turbo...and to let you know a stock B18 should be able to hold 10 psi SAFELY with proper tuning...I would recommend you getting either a t3/t4 hybrid OR a Garrett GT28R those are also nice...the GT is what I am looking for if you don't want to spend that much though you can go to a junkyard and find a old galant eclipse or talon TSI and get a TD05-H off one of those that is another option I am thinking of...but its up to you hope you have fun when you get it boosted lol

 

[92CX LS]

is a TD05 turbo any good because i can get one for cheap.

 

[92CX LS]

what about one of those t3/t4 hybrid turbos off ebay? because i've decided to peice one together myself.

go, read, research, learn, you will find your answers...

and buyer beware on ebay, you get what you pay for...

the compressor falls off the snail 5 miles down the road don't come bitching to us...

 

[92CX LS]

oil line kit off tunertoys.com
Intercooler piping

and youll probably want to use crome instead of uberdata

 

[92CX LS]

Alright thanks! Where do I find Intercooler piping? Do I need to change anything that i got on the list?

How come crome and not uberdata?

[post=543413]Quoted post[/post]​

crome is better for fuel maps and such and for the IC piping I would check Jcwhitney..or you can find a IC kit...for around 600 that includes charge pipes and the IC greddy might have one...as for the downpipe....no clue..I would suggest going to a muffler shop and see if they can fab you one up! and man I hope you got more money cuase its gets costly....honestly I would go to a junkyard for your DSM 450's...you can get a set for like 50 bucks....

 

[posol]

kteller.com for piping needs
crome for tuning

going with a neukin mani is probably not worth it for your set up.... you'll top out that turbo and the injectors before you see the real gains of an equal-length manifold. you can probably save a few bucks with a cheaper log-style if you want and still reach your goals.

but, you never even said what your goal is, what you use the car for, or anything like that... so what do i know...

 

[92CX LS]

well i want to have around 300whp for now and then sooner or later im going to build my internals. and i want it to be a weekly driver. because i don't drive every day

 

[92CX LS]

Do you think that setup will get me that much hp. If not then what could I do to get that much?


I was looking on tunertoys and i don't know which oil line to buy. I need yalls help because i don't know which to buy.
