Ya thanks alot so far guys you guys are great.

Prep my engine before i get the turbo? Shouldnt it be fine after i get the Upgraded pumps & fuel injector?

2. Why would it be a bad idea to get headers, exhaust & intake also?

i never said anything about the exhaust, but you cant run a header because the kit comes with an turbo manifold and the header wouldnt fit the turbo.

Yeah SuddenSlip you really need to do alot more research. You dont need to buy headers or an intake, you would just be reselling those parts once you put your tubo on because they are usuless and they are replaced by intercooler piping and a turbo manifold. Then seconly if you crank your boost up past 9 or 10 on a stock head studs you will for sure blow a head gasket if not do more damage. JUst do research.
