are you just trying to replace the turbo on your gst? im pretty sure thats just the stock size. did it come with gaskets oil lines and water lines? and of course the turbo?

It should bolt right on, all you need is a gasket set.

that is a relatively small upgrade to the stock turbo. It should be complete bolt on to the manifold. You should be able to run around 12-15psi without any fuel cut. Anything after that youll have to start upgrading the fuel system

and even when you start upgrading the fuel you dont have to go big, just a 190lph fuel pump and small injectors, maybe 550's? if that?

well i bought this car with a blown engine and the kid i bought it from totally stripped it.. i had no interior and barely any parts, like not even a transmission. he took off the entire turbo system so i have to replace everything. i just bought a bov today but dont i also need an intercooler and full piping?
alright heres a picture..
this is all i bought, nothing else came with it..

well with that small of a turbo you can just go with the stock sidemount... but you should get hard intercooler piping

im pretty sure you can get any part you need for you whole car at thedsmgraveyard.com or mitsubishigraveyard.com all them people probably have most if not all the stock parts you need to install your turbo and get ur car back together.

ya thats not really what i envisioned when you said you had a kit. lol but those are good sites for stock replacements a little expensive when i asked them for pricing on a few pieces. personally i like dsmsource.com alot of parts there for reasonable price.

alright, i think i have my upper intercooler pipes and i have a bov coming soon so otherwise just part all the other stuff from a junkyard?
and to tjbiker, i bought the car for $400.
