Oh my god, that was amaing.

I just loled at work!

:

And which turbo are you getting for you birthday?

Just curious.

I don't think it was that funny but yeahhhh def search.

Dump the cash so you can dump the clutch

Great..So now when the next kid comes on and actually uses the search chances are he will find that bullshit response and actually think he can use those parts..
Good job prick.. way to help.
Everything has been asked already why not just shut down the boards to new posts and just put a big search button on the top..

I do agree that the origional poster should do a little more searching but there is so much info on here is almost impossible to read/sort through it all. We all need a little help to get started..

Start here
http://www.2gnt.com/index.php?d=POWER

I would suggest getting a hahn turbo kit http://www.turbosystem.com/(stage 2 minimum). Look at their stage 3 as it comes with all the bottom end components (pistons/rods/rings,etc..) you will need.
Can you buy the bottom end parts separately and do a little better on the price?..Sure but you might spend just as much time/money figuring that out on your own..

Ok.. I'll try being a BANME! and seeing what they would have to go through.

So I want a turbo.. So I go to the turbo forum..Oh whats this on the top "Got turbo questions? Check this thread first! (Swap info!)" http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=8&topic_id=96054&mesg_id=96054&page=

Wow I'll check that link out..
What every link is dead.. Well fuck that didn't work..

So maybe I'll try the search.. What would I search for.. how about "pistons for turbo rebuild" ......129 results.. first one "my dipstick popped" thats no help..
SO Ill try the next one.. what do I see but another bullshit post from Mike about using the search..

See what I mean.. Its not so easy..
If your gonna post atleast post something usefull.."search" is not usefull.

In order to search properly you have to at least have some knowledge about what to put in the search box to yield usefull results..Most cannot do that.. I've been on this board practically since it started and I hate using the search button also because its not helpful.

both of you have very valid points.
yes this question is asked a bunch recently.
and yes we should usually search

however being that this site IS 10 years old it is true that a lot of the old links are dead ends.

also the hard part of doing a pure sticky thread are the "Custom Kits" that people want to do.
for those i will agree that some degree of "Turbocharger Theory and Application" knowledge is needed.

/sigh i will see if i can farm through a bunch of old stuff and see what i can do for both schools of thought on this topic.

Foggy, you would be the man if you could consolidate the knowledge that is available here into a good sticky thread.

i thought you were for real for a second. you need to understand that one needs expore the site before asking questions becuase it could be answered before you even ask if you would have searched. but other than that, welcome

well i have done most of my research on what i will be buying...

Pistons :JE
Rods : EAGLE
Rings : Total Seal
Bearings : ACL or EAGLE
Injectors : Thinking on 550s not sure what type?
FMU : vortech 12.1
Fuelrail : VENOM or AEM
Ignition coil : MSD
wires and plugs : NGK With 9MM wirest
Complete gasket set. Not sure?
Head gasket. :COMETIC?
headstuds.. :ARP?


But im looking for prices and SUGGESTIONS ON IF THEY HAVE BAD PRODUCTS.... im just saying anything left out i should purchase while this is being done except head work? Like honing out the tb to like 60mm?

skip the fuel rail, but if you want a good rail with -6AN fittings on them PM Star Talon Turbo (Terry) and ask him nicely to make you a rail.
some of the aftermarket fuel rails for our cars have been known to leak

What turbo? Kit?

How much boost do you plan on running?

Injectors are pretty big..how do you plan to control them?

Seems like now you've searched and just pulled together a list of parts just because they are listed on this site with little to no thought about why...

The more info you provide the better your help will be..

Hey, i know you guys are flaming eachother and all, but i just wanted to balance your arguement by saying thank you.

Despite being barraged with constant newbie questions, you guys still log into this board to answer questions for those of us needing the help. its good to know if I have a real problem I cant figure out, that theres going to be you guys, or people like you willing to offer your expertise for free. Or rather at the price of some newbie blood every so often.

so thanks. by all means, flame away, but keep yourselves available. its appreciated.

Guys, fighting on 2gnt is like running in the special olympics, even if you win your still retarted

But honestly, im sure all of us (including myself) didnt have a clue as to what we were doing at one time. So instead of detering people from coming to this forum (which is usually because they dont know what the fuck they are doing) just answer the question and if your going to flame the poor guy, dont say anything at all. Its not that hard. If he asks a question that has been asked about a million times, dont post anything and im sure they will get the picture just as fast when their are no replies to their post. Just my 2 cents.

I must say I'm new on here but not to cars. When I first started i read up on all the powe/turbo stuff that was written and well it was pretty much comon sense to me what i needed and what not. The search button i think on here actually sucks because like stated above it will bring up any random ass post about anything and just because the word turbo or whatever is in the post 1 time there ya go, f that. Searching is a good way to learn the basics but alot of stuff on here is old and im sure like me, people would like to hear up to date responses cause im sure most of you have done this or done that since your original post from back in the day. Again I know im new on here, and im not tryin to piss in anybodys cheerios but if all most of you guys can say is search why the hell do you even contribute. I joined this site because of the knowledge you originators have and its been very helpfull. Trust me this site gets bashed on others because of the smart ass replys and the all might search answer. Anyway sorry for the lengthy post but come on guys it doesnt hurt to give an answer even if it has been answered a 1000 times cause guess what, in another ten years we re still gonna have the same ?'s

I understand what all of you guys are saying and i do agree and already regret giving my 2 cent about the whole search thing, I get where you guys are comming from and apologize and ill keep my opinions of the nature to myself from now on. You guys are smart as hell and I respect that, but sometimes updated or newly found answers are better than the old stuff.

i've been a member for a few months now. i haven't posted much but have been reading there is a lot to learn from here if you take the time to read and read and read some more. it was recemnded to me to read "MAXIMUM BOOST" by CORKY BELL. great book learned a lot t thought i new a lot before but now know even more. I love this site it's a big help. i just now need to save the money to get my parts for my car. i need another 420a block and head so i can still drive my car so if u got one for asle let me no. thanks

Since i dont think you should be fabricating shit, you should buy the following:

Hahn, star or treadstone turbo kit

Walbro 255 fuel pump

Slowboy racing stage 2 shortblock (has your built bottom end, just go with the lowcomp pistons for boost)

MLS headgasket (go felpro or die)

Hahn portfueler

Laptop

A tuner

Dyno time

And ofcourse, beer.

Clutch? Spec, act, I'm not 99% sure but i was looking for a new clutch and found daiken/exedy makes clutches for our app. Fidanza makes clutches for us too. Just look around. The manufacturer will tell you what you can use it for.

Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....
