Well after about a year of waiting I am finally going to be buying my hana bumper and Seibon hood, so now its on it planning the next project while I finish this one... honestly my turbo knowledge is near to none. I do know that there is like noone but SFR and ebay that has kits that you just buy so I want to learn more about them and do a custom turbo set up. SO, what would be some reccomended reading for me and what are the parts that I will basically be needing? supporting mods? any info to help me learn is greatly appreciated.

 

Do you have the 2.0l or the 2.7l? Makes a pretty big difference which you have if you're thinking about going turbo.

Either way read Maximum Boost by Corky Bell.

 

oh sorry yeah im running an auto 2.0

 

Manual swap first.

 

no need to do a manual swap... the auto tranny is very strong, have a friend here in az goes by Minebetter on other forums, he has an auto V6 boosted and was running 12's last I knew.

 

yes but ive straight up seen people gain a full second in the quarter mile by swapping to manual

the V6 auto is a different animal than the beta auto

me and jongtr made up a grocery list for whats needed to turbo, no need to waste money and have someone "premake" you a kit

grocery list

 

understandable... im not lookin to smoke anything and everything at the track just a little pep in my step and a little more under the hood for show purposes when the tib goes full show...

 

nitrous!!

 

There's a low boosted auto on RDT that's blown up on the dyno cause of its unpredictable shifting. But it's your car.

 

manual swap before turbo..

as jon said, a guy on RDT blew up his diff only running 8lbs on the dyno.

v6 trans is different than the beta trans.

few months back, i did a kit for a 2006 GK 4cyl.
