i just recently decided to turbo my ka motor i just wanna know what i need i have a manifold got it last night and i got a t3 turbo also last night im gonna piece it together but i need to know what else i need

Oil lines, BOV, wastegate if the turbo isn't internally wastegated(get a Tial one, don't buy a deltagate), either side-mount or front mount IC, downpipe, free flowing exhaust all the way back, fuel management of some sort, upgraded fuel pump, an oil cooler wouldn't be a bad idea. depending on how much boost you are planning to run and how much power you want to make, get pistons, rods, rings, ARP bolts....etc etc. and bigger fuel injectors. I think that is most of the stuff, but I am not an expert on turbo's, just done alot of research. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong or missed anything.

well probably not much boost maybe 5-10 lbs for right now, where can i get oil lines and whats the diff between deltagate and tial because i think when i bought the manifold thats what the specs of the manifold called for is a deltagate wastegate

KA-T sounds good to me. I think the top end of the motor should be upgraded but I think the stock Crank should be stout enough to hold boost.

I think you will also need some water lines for the turbo also

I think you can just get some braided stainless steel lines, and have AN fittings put on them in the lengths you need. Check what kind of fittings you need, then head to a local machine shop or auto parts store or something. The difference between TiAl and Deltagate are just brands. There have been lots of problems with Deltagates leaking under boost, but if you are not going to run much, you should be fine. If you up the boost, you should look into getting a TiAl.

a buddy of mine used brake lines for his oil lines..very stong..it works if u dont have anything else..just a thought

an oil cooler is not necessary unless you're pushing some high numbers. in fact, an oil cooler would have some negative effects as oil is efficient only at a specific temperature. for 5-10psi, you can do without bigger injectors. you can use the stock injectors with a FMU. good if you're on a tight budget.

jgstools.com/turbo or atpturbo.com for the oil lines. water lines aren't necessary. just run some high quality synthetic oil like redline.
