Default Turbo Project...*Updated*

The day i have long awaited for has finally arrived...i have purchased my SRT Turbo, manifold, BOV, 02 housing, SRT stage 0 injectors, Walboro 255 fuel pump, and about to order my gauges, pods, and a rear section off an SRT-4. Next I'll be getting a stock SRT IC, hot and cold pipes, Melling M190 oil pump, all the coolant, oil, and vacuum lines, the RRFPR, and the SOHC Manfold Plate. (and a few other things)

Wish me luck people!

Thanks man, the only problem is this is gonna cost me about $1,500...then i have to send it away for tuning (and i dont know how much that costs yet), and of course a dyno to see how much its making. Hopefully my little project will be done by the second week of July...but we'll see.

ok here is some tips
you have too relocate the stock ecu too get the intercooler in and also have too cut into the car too get it in there nothing major but have a grinder handy
too get the hot side pipe in you need too move the power steering cooler. the hot side pipe is not impissible too get in but it is pain too get on there
also atach all the lines except the the oil feed before putting on the turbo and do the manifold bfore you do the turbo


goodluck and just think before putting something on because there is very little space and it will safe tons of time

you don't really need the cold side pipe you just need 2 90deg elbows and about 12inches of sraight tubing the srt cold side pipe does not fit as is I had too add a 90deg elbow too make it work
the hot side piping might be hard too get I would go too srt boards you might get lucky
