Ok right now i have a T-25(i know its small but its a turbo), a SMIC, and a 1g BOV. Besides the piping, what else do i need to scrap together this kit. i got those parts above from a friends brothers GS-T. where can i get a manifold, and how much? i heard there were a couple guys on here who have done this, so i thought id ask. thanks for the help

Get the picture? now go away untill you learn to use the resources we have so graciously provided to you at costly time and expense so we would not have to answer the SAME FUCKING QUESTIONS 198,995,032,775,09,023,098.4 TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, drive thru!

(we being those who have answered this question that many times)

he couldn't have said it any better. search. it's quite nice how many things you can find with the search. oh and one more thing that i think just about every single person on this board will tell you, ditch the t-25 ASAP. it sucks hardcore.

i am interested in your exhaust manifold but i was gonna go with t3/t4. Is it compatable?

I have 2 basic models, 1 with the garrett T3 flange and 1 with the mitsubishi flange
for a t3/t4 you need the one with the garrett flange
and I sold more of those than the mitsubishi

Alain

you have:
t25, smic, 1gbov

You need:
Ic piping, fuel lines, sfmu, fuel pump, fuel injectors(depending on desired boost level),boost guage, egt guage, custom exhaust manifold, custom downpipe.

t3/t4 turbo-
Downpipe flange-
exhaust Manifold
Sfmu-
boost gauge-
Egt Gauge-
fuel preassure gauge-
Blow off valve-
a-piller gauge mount
external Wastegate-
Wastegate dump pipe-
walboro 255lph fuel pump
oil feed line etc.
Oil drain line etc.
Spearco intercooler core
intercooler piping couplers
exhaust,intercooler piping(Glasspack18inch ,3inchflexsection,, exhaust bends
intercooler bends)

Thats what I came up with for mine so far..if that helps..and yeah I was gunna snag a manifold from alain to cause he seems to kick ass. Hope that helps..

there is nothing wrong w/ a t25, IF you plan on keepin teh boost low.
people say ditch the t25, but what does a t25 boost on a stock 2G? 11 psi iirc, and i doubt an OEM would use a turbo outside of its efficiency range

however, if you plan on doing a low CR rebuild, then yeah, ditch teh t25.

thank you for an answer. i did search but i always get such vague results. i know i should "ditch" the T-25, but im only planning on boosting 7psi. so i think it will hold for now. and i dont think i will need new injectors at that level of boost. plus the T-25 is practically free, so you cant go wrong with that. i plan on going to this muffler shop that does some good custom work for the pipes. sorry, may sound like a newbie, but whats a sfmu? and what about oil lines? thanks for your help

an sfmu is an acronymn(sp) for super-fuel management unit. Made by vortech. lets you adjust your fuel according to boost.

and theres many a turbo on ebay you can find for 250 dollars or less that are better than the t-25. Free IS better than 250 but just a suggestion.

ya kno, a t25 is not that much smaller then a 14b.....

It has no growth room down the road... unlike the 14B which can do crazy things.
You need oil lines to run to your turbo. I don't know if a T25 is water cooled or not, but if it is you will need to work out a water injection system too. If you go to www.dsmtuners.com/ and look in the articles, turbo/nitrous tech I think, and then look at the turbo system install you will get a comprehensive parts list as to everything that comes in HRC's kit as well as a few pointers on rigging up your oil system.

edit: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84537 is what you're looking for

water cooling and water injection is really not the same thing

water cooling a turbo is really easy we have the return hose right above the manifold and the send hose just below on the right

Alain

I remember reading ner 947's post on watercooling the turbo I think. What were the drawbacks? I think someone said it made your car run a little hotter? or something during the summer?. I was kinda interested in it.

thanks ive read that a couple times. what things are application specific, and which are unirversal or i can make them work with a little fabricating? besides the manifold. oh and will an Apexi S-AFC work instead of the vortec thing? thanks

no SAFC will not work as a main fuel tuning unit a on our cars
it could help if combined to a SFMU as a fine tuning option
