ORIGINAL: jpmontero98 well i need to make a pipe to lead to the exaust and air filter and manifold...is an intercooler necisary? or do i have to make another damned thing for it?i took a look at my exaust pipes...they join up 1 inch b4 the o2 sensor....do i make a connection there or move it up to jus one pipe or split a pipe from the turbo so it reaches both exaust before they join? and do i need a new exasuast system? i have these things in consideration I'm not the guy to talk to about turbos. But my understanding is the intercooler is necessary because the increased pressure causes spontaneous combustion before the spark. Dropping the temperature prevents this premature ignition.....so put one on your joint too! [:D] you can buy all your drop pipes at most auto parts stores. You shouldn't have any trouble finding a shop to bend, cut and weld them for you. I don't think those prefab kits are a bad idea...with pipes, intercooler and all. Someone did point out on here that one he saw was a piece of junk... so research these kits before buying. You know of course, you're probably going to blow the engine. I would probably recommend if you really want a turbo, you should just buy a used block from japan. It will cost you about $2000 instead of $1000 or less....but the engine is complete and already made for a turbo. I'm not making any promises yet...but if this whole import thing I am considering gets off the ground, I'm planning to have them ship me evo engines along with cars. So, I'm planning as part of this deal to sell mitsu 4&6 cyl turbo engines. But don't go holding your breath....because if it gets to be too much a pita, I'll dump the whole project. If you want, you can order an engine alone from the same guys in Japan that I plan to deal with. You'll probably have to wait a few months for it to be delivered though. And I wouldn't sell it to you for less than they would anyway....probably more. http://www.japan-partner.com/ email them. I sent them an email on Monday and still haven't gotten a response.
