So what is all needed for a turbo kit. Ok so basically my cousin told me what i should do is buy the turbo, intercooler, and then the shop will weld the pipes, oil lines, and put it in. The shops charge by hour not by products. any help would be great. Thanks guys

You should read this...

I wouldn't follow some of the advice though, Home Depot is not a good place to shop for turbo stuff. Remember doing it the cheap way isnt always the smart way.

Read Read Read EVERYTHING about turbos and understand wtf you are doing first!

still need to know how the turbo works and what to do if something happens, like all of a sudden your oil pressure drops.

He siad he wanted to peice together a kit, imo he doesn't even come close to thaving enough knowledge to put one together. Im sure all he thinks he needs a turbo and some tubing.

All of these posts in this thread they are all worthless. If everyone is going to put so much effort into posting in this thread, then at least make it informative.

Any more garbage in this thread or towards bonkey and I'll find the ban button real fast.
