Okay, Im just about ready to Order my Stage1 HRC S16G kit. I feel I know a good amount of information regarding boosting the 420a, and if I do have issues I can always look to Jason who is 10 minutes away -- (He's going to assist in the turbo install) -- but I need a few opinions.

Stage1 HRC at 5psi on stock intercals is of course relatively safe; and I'm pretty sure the odds of blowing my engine on 5psi are pretty rare...but if it were to blow at 5psi, I would be fucked. I certainly do not have the money for a rebuild, plus my dad would shoot my if the engine in the 'new' car blew. I just wanted to see what you guys would do in my situation...

Aside from that, what extras will I need? I've already got my 3-pod A-pillar, A/f gauge, boost gauge, EGT gauge...I know I'll need colder plugs....are there any other odds or ends I'm missing?

If the above check out okay with you "knowledgeable" turbo guru's, I'll be ordering this kit soon. I've waited so much, and saved for so long..and Im almost there...it better be worth it.

from checking out your sig pic, i know one thing that the turbo will require you to have : LOWERING SPRINGS :P just kidding.

you might want to pick up a catch can. but other than that your set i think. OH you might want to get new oilpan and exhaust maiflod gaskets.

and if you do blow your engine then you could take the kit off and see if you can't get your warranty to cover it. but i doubt it will blow

I'd upgrade to a Vortech SFMU, if I were you. Nothing sucks more, than having to adjust your fuel pressure in the pouring rain. That Cartech FPR sucks ass!!!!

Like I tell everyone else, make sure you have a nice cat-back on there. It's not "required", but it sure is damn reccommended. A catch can would be nice, but you could make one for like $5 if you need one. Other than that...I think you got it!
