Default Well I Clicked "Commit to buy" on the Ebay Turbo

I clicked it by accident, (at least that is what I am going to keep telling myself).

So What else do I need to get this kit going? The bare basics will do for now. I have HP tuners which will allows me to tune the car once It is up and running.

Anyone with the similiar kit please chime in and let me know what parts you had to buy to get the turbo up and running.

Thanks


Still trying to get all the parts.

UPDATED

So far I have
Turbo Kit
3" Cold side pipes
Turbo Blanket
Intercooler
Couplers
V-Band Clamps
Alternator Bracket
Gauge Pod
Wideband
Oil Lines
Injectors
Fuelpump
160 Thermostat
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug Wire Boot Protector
WasteGate
Pusher Fans

I still need to buy
Boost Gauge
BoV
Turbo

You bought a kit.....or just a turbo?

Either way, first thing you will need is a new turbo. I'd start there. The TC76 from forcedinductions.com is a great turbo for the price.

I bought the kit, but have heard the turbo is junk. I will check out the TC76.

I guess the good news is that you already have a gsxr 750. If you bought the "kit" I think you are talking about, it would probably suit that size motor better than a 5.7L.

LOL, honestly I am just looking for a little more HP. If i get 450rwhp ill be happy. Its hard to say no to an $800 hot parts kit. I am going to sell my headers and Y pipe and use some of that money to begin buying the other parts that I need.

for 450 hp you could have gone a cheaper faster route than with that 800 dollar hot part kit, those 800 bucks are going to be nothing when you have to start buying all those clamps and couplers and hoses and pipes and the rest of the junk to get only 450 hp...

Im just saying im not expecting to get 600 hp to the wheels. Whatever the kit will provide is fine for me. I am looking to get whatever I can on a basically stock engine. I used to have a boosted car before and miss seeing the boost gauge spike up whenever I would gun it.

I know I will need to upgrade the injectors and fuel pump. Which is fine. But I dont want to mess with cams, heads, etc. If I get bored with the turbo kit ill just pop it off and sell it.

So, Anyone who has bought this kit provide a list of what you needed to purchase in order to get up and running?

Thats not it. Its basically the same kit but the one that everyone has been buying comes with the intercooler and turbo for basically the same price.

Ill take a bunch of pics when I get the kit. Its something that I want to get installed once I have everything that I need for the install.

I would hate to see the car sitting for weeks waiting on parts.

It shouldnt get locked. We are not advertising it, or displaying where to purchase it from. This thread isnt any different from the thread with people making their turbo kits using 6.0 manifolds.
