i plan on getting a turbo kit for my rs sometime in the future and was wondering if i am going to need to do anything to my car before i have the turbo installed. will i have to upgrade my fuel, ecu, cams, heads,etc.?

compression test to make sure its ok, then got to hahn or star. you may think about a s-afc and guages if you want to.

stage 2 turbo and all that crap

Both turbo kits (HRC and STAR) are designed as bolt on kits and NOTHING else is required but if you are getting stage 2 or higher then you will need to get a catback exhaust for the best results.

I'm with dsmark!

I am not a moderator but....Shouldnt this be in the turbo section? Anyway.....

I dont agree with dsmark. You are going to need LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of money. You'll get either the stage 1 or 2 then you'll want more. Trust me. Its an addiction once you feel the boost.

and then when u want more boost you follow this simple formula

more boost=more money



it goes like this:

new car = chicks = money = honda-hating = need for boost = more money = boost = need for more boost = lots more money = blown motor = need for boatloads of money and chicks cause now you don't have either!

Fuel comes with kit, no ecu upgrade available, cams if you want, heads - never knew we had more than 1 head.

With a stage 2 or less you wont need to upgrade the injectors. The fuel pump and the FPR are plenty for up to 8 psi. All you need is good compressionm and the turbo kit. Thats it. A catbackk exhaust is recomended for a stage 2.
