Thats it, if u guys could help me out and let me know where i should start. thanks guys

Start by scouring google...

Then once u understand how forced induction works then we can help u finalize your build!

Welcome to CC! Read the stickies and enjoy your stay!

Also post up some pics!

ok thanks bud, i get some picks on here soon. And also id like to keep my D16z6 instead of swap just to let u guys know

alot of people have turboed a Z6 so there is gonna be plenty of stuff on this subject. most would say what you would need depends on how much boost you would wana run. but i myself says build the internals and do it right the first time so you wont have to do it a second!

the first thing id look at is how many miles are on that motor?

 

[kcizicecold]

I understand how forced induction works, i just dont know where to start at cuz i pretty much have a stock motor

 

[kcizicecold]

there is 150,532 on motor, and i really dont know how much boost to run. i mean i want it to be quick but im not goin to go out here and race everyone. lets just say i want to be fast enough to rape most mustangs lol

 

[kcizicecold]

Can u give me a list of internals? like what should i start with frist and so on

 

[emerican]

you need to come up with power goals budget and mechanical knowledge before anybody can tell you what you need
also you need to do some research look up turbo builds and go threw the forced induction category on here and research what parts people used on builds that have the same goals yours do.

ok tahnks

thanks*

Emerian said it. Need to find out how much cash you can spend and how much power you want. I'll tell you now though if you don't want to build the internals just make sure to compression test the engine and probably don't plan to go too far over 200whp for the sake of reliablility
