could you guys tell me what a stage 1 is iv heard some people talk about them . does it have anything to do with a turbo.

A stage1 turbo is just your basic turbo setup, without an intercooler.

Exactly what 99rs said. Check out the Hahn Racecraft banner at the top of your screen when it pops up. You can learn alot there about Stage I, II, and III setups.

thanks for the help

ok im new to all of this so i will need a little help. ok so for me to get a stage one turbo how much we lookin at . and what is the radiator i see on others cars in the pics, do i have to get one and what does it do

it's an intercooler, it cools the air that comes out of the turbo before it enters the engine. it's the difference between a stage1 and a stage2.

ok so i wont have to have one if i go with the stage one. ok would it be a good idea to get a factory turbo off of my friends gst. or should i buy one used or new, also will i be able to put this on or will i need profesional help

Factory turbo off a GST is for an entirely different engine. your non turbo car has a Chrysler 420A engine while your buddies GS-T has a Mitsubishi 4G63 Engine in it, so I'm pretty sure it won't fit. as for the install, depends on your level of competence with mechanical stuff, and how much you trust yourself. If you have the money to spend getting it done professionally, and you don't hink you can do it yourself, then have it done. Of course a stage 1 setup will come with instructions, so you can always take a look at it, and see if it's outside of your abilities. just my .02

Here are some sites where you can find info on the different kits available:

ok what about buying a used one i think i can put it on. do u think that it will work good

no offense but you NEED to learn alot more about turbo before you go out and buy a kit. Unless you have rich parents who will keep dumping money into what ever your little heart wants, then go for it.

If you want a turbo, then read this site and howstuffworks.com for any info on turbocharging you can, a turbo is not something to just slap on and forget about it.

If you just go out and buy a stage 1 kit from HRC then you will probably end up blowing your engine in under a month, or many other problems that may arise.

ok i read that link it was helpful but i already knew most of that. i plan on letting a professional set it up so i dont mess anything up thanks for the help
