how many people do you think have asked that question on here? your not the only one, all the info is out there if you just search for it. you can also go on other forums.

or if you really want to educate your self, buy the book maximum boost by corky bell. it has all the info you will EVER need about turbocharging an engine

if you want to learn more, my advice to you, put the turbo behind you.. dont throw it out the door but save it for later on until you understand much much more about your car and motor. if i was you, just read into some simple bolt on and slowly do bolt ons, and do the work yourself.. its not hard just common sense really.. until you have full understood what your car is capable of doing THEN take the turbo into consideration.

werd, see thats what i was looking for. toneekay thats whats up man, ill work on the motor alittle bit more, see the reason i was jumping into the turbo thing was because im getting 10,000 in like 2 weeks so i wanted to get as much info as possible before i made final decisions. I already have my head in the shop being worked on, i bought a crower stroker kit and having the placed in righ after, so my engine will be out of commission for the next 3-4 weeks. Im just ordering parts now to get it all together so when i get the head back i can slap the thing together, put on any extra bolt ons i bought n hopefully run boost in this f**kin thing. I want to gain around 10-18 LBS if possible without blowing my motor, let me know

wow thats brave of you man, ive been researching turbos hardcore the last 3,4 months and i dont plan on doing it until i can install my self (helps im going to school to be a mechanic), that way if i run into problems which is pretty much inevitable i can diagnose it and at least know whats going on, but good luck. let us know how it goes
