#2238, "Need some info on new turbo!!"


          

Well, It is getting close to turbo time for me. I just want to know how much $$$ I will need? I know the turbo price but I need to know what kind of stuff I need to go with it. Like blowoff valve,boost controller, etc..... I plan on getting the star stage one. I know that I also need to get new plugs and a better exhaust should help too. I just want a rough estimate from someone who knows what all this stuff costs. I am new to this turbo stuff but I am trying to learn all I can before I get it on my car.

And I almost forgot about the gauges. I want to get the triple gauge pod that goes on the pillar. Which gauges would be the best to go there? I know I need a boost gauge but what else should go there? And how much do the gauges cost?

i noticed you mentioned modifying the A/F gauge with the turbo? i have the autometer right now, why does it have to be modified to work with a turbo, it should still read off the o2 sensor like it does now

Cyan....what he means by modified is that there is a guy who will make it where one LED will light up at a time, instead of bouncing back and forth. This way you know exactly what's going on and the exact voltage reading.

I dont think the bov is required for a stage I set-up bcuz of low boost your limited to, but thats not to say you cant use one anyways.
