what parts should i look for when going thrugh junkyards to build my own turbo kit ? what parts should i buy brand new ?

 

it depends on your idea of your own setup of what to look for. so only you can answer that. i would purchase a turbo new if not then definately rebuild before you use it. everything else you need doesnt matter.

 

well... i dont know what consists of a turbo kit, other then a turbo and a BOV and an intercooler... so just buy a new turbo, and find a bov and intercooler ? other then the exhaust manifold/downpipe... is there any more parts ?

 

hey gimme a call, were gonna hit up some junkyards today, Im lookin for a few things, one of them is a turbo, I talked to PT a little about what size turbo to look for, and after thinking about it some im thinkin turbo might be what I do with my KA because it only has like 112k miles. I figure the turbo is the first thing I need because a turbo kit is nothing without the turbo, and having a beautiful hairdryer in my trunk will be all the motivation i need to keep goin for it.

 

yo sorry i missed ur call today, but in case you are lookin at getting some stuff pretty soon, there are a few turbos around the Ecology yard in chula vista, I picked up a turbo today off an 84 Audi,,, turbos gonna cost you about 90 bucks there, so price is pretty good, just make sure it spins nicely for ya,

Im goin for around 200 wheel horsepower, and Ill try to keep a pretty good idea of where everything comes from.
