Not bad for $900USD…= $1100cad after shipping :dunno: The way I see it, if you were to buy the stuff separately: $300-$400 - turbo $200-$300 - manifold $100-$200 - downpipe $100-$130 - cat $50-$100 - oil line So you’re averagin between $850 to $1100cad Should be good for 7psi :o ---

ya true, except I never really see SOHC turbo stuff for sale, thats why I was curious… Maybe its not a great deal then. I doubt it will even sell on there, maybe Ill send him an email and see how low he will let it go for. ---

What else is a mandatory? Obvioulsy piping, IC, Do I need bigger injectors? ---

Yes you need bigger injectors. I didn’t check the link, but you would probably also need a fuel pump and some form of engine management system. ---

Will also need to consider: – Walbro 255 fuel pump – FMU or 370cc (or higher) injectors, upgraded injectors would be recommended – S-AFC or something to control new injectors if going that route – Oil return line for turbo – Intercooler that fits & it’s placement – Intercooler piping – Blow off valve ideally – Exhaust system – Recircing or scrapping EGR and other emissions stuff – Possible braking or suspension/wheel/tire upgrades – Timing/ignition/Spark plugs etc. – Tons of vac hose and tees haha Misc stuff like this… ---

how much do you think this setup he is selling is worth? 900US fair price? I am really considering buying this… but dont know enough about turbo specs, etc.
