Meeni, if you want to stay 5-port, then buy some quality valves & get GR to do you a nice head, then add one of his RE13T cams,,, chuck a GT2560 onto a custom manifold & with a bit of a hunt around the UK you should be able to pick up a turbo carb & manifold (i think i have a turbo inlet manifold here)
then bob`s your Aunty
make sure your gearbox is up-to-par
slip in a slippery diff
& away you go
Agreed.
Depends where and what you want, mine is over the clutch housing but many put in other places.
Easiest and cheapest way though would be to get a manifold off Ben (he should have some already made) whack a GT2560 on it. Thats the turbo I am running however with different front and rear housings.
Dont forget, you need more to make it 'work'
You need;
- Fuel pump capable of 4psi higher than your boost level (ie, if running 10psi need 14psi pump MIN)
- Fuel Pressure regulator (rising rate!)
- Fuel return line back to the tank
- Turbo profile camshaft (just call GR for one)
- Turbo carb (HIF44 blow sealed - for blow through) or any for suck through
NOTE: If suck through you cant intercool!
- Diff wise - I run a quaife but you dont HAVE to put it in yet.
- Dump pipe and exhaust
- If going turbo I would suggest looking at the ignition system. Dizzy works but you cant control it as much - I would look at Megajolt setup
- If blow through intercooled - you want the intercooler piping, intercooler, silicone hoses, etc.
- Plenum
- Oil lines - into turbo AND for the drain - (braided hose I suggest)
- Plate or something made to get the oil return to drain oil back into the sump.
- Turbo exhaust manifold gasket (the one with metal I suggest)
Prolly things I left off though.
