i guess 2.5" would be fine for an exhuast. What comes in this kit thats for sale. And where did the person buy it. Because if its a cheap ebay kit, you may be getting ripped of at 1k

Does it would run fine with 8psi? i was thinking on 6psi, then, putting some more when i get the pistons.

i guess as long as you stay at low psi you should be fine. I would just be very cautious and make sure you do a safe tune

black, you really need to take into consideration, about how many miles are on your stock motor? im not trying to discourage you in any way, because im redoing an entire motor from ground up to take a turbo. however on a high miles motor that is very well known for tearing up timing belts and bending valves it is risky. not to mention once you start boosting it theres a good chance you will blow your head gasket. i know the key is in your wastegate. that controls the actual pressure allowed into the motor. as long as thats right it doesn't matter how big your turbo is you are getting a set pressure. try it out but learn from your mistakes. you will find the right combination it just takes time.
