hell have to stick with the homo dsm flange tho. get a volvo or saab t3 turbo

 

honestly any cheap junkyard turbo will work

 

Do you guys think it will ok to boost 6-10 psi without any bottom or top end motor upgrades and 139000 on the motor

 

get a compression check to test your engine

 

What would be a good exhaust set up for this build. I was thinking 2.5 catback with borla turbo muffler?

 

I wouldn't run anything too fancy as for an exhaust. For me, i dont want the extra flash that some exhausts give. That setup would be great. Run open downpip whenever you go to the track or are going out racing. It's not that loud

 

2.5" should be good.
If you want you can run an exhaust cut-out for the track, otherwise 2.5 is good.

 

I don't see the point in spending the extra money on something like that went unbolting 2 bolts does t he same thing

 

I have been looking at garret airesearch t3 .42 a/r compression .48 a/r exhaust turbos but in this size what would be a good trim to spool up fast but still give me good top end power . I need all the help I can get I dont know jack about turbos before I got my car 3 months ago.

 

I just want to confirm some info about turbo set ups. The only reason I am planning on using a thicker head gasket was to lower my hp without the turbo, so when I put the turbo on it will create about the same amount if not more tq than hp. Is this true or is it a waste of money to put a thicker head gasket on my motor.
