Whats EVERYTHING i need for a turbo

[Annoying Eric]

What do i need to buy to put a turbo in my car.. Please list everything......from every little screw to washers etc..............

Start with some books, like an FSM and some on how turbos work, sizing, and installation.

If you want a parts list just look up a bolt on kit.  They include everything you need to install a turbo, so follow their lead.  Nsport, Fmax, and XS engineering come to mind.

Or use search, i think even your subject line has been used several times before.

If you care to learn all about turbos (and I hope you do if your getting one, hehe) check out a book called "Maxium Boost" (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0837601606/qid%3D1024696744/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F0%5F1/104-7165748-7055149). I haven't read it myself since I don't plan to go turbo anytime soon but I have heard from numerous people that it is a "must read" for anybody looking to go turbo. Its not EVERYTHING you need to build a custom turbo kit from scrach but its a good start. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

If you don't care to learn...just buy a full prebuilt kit and pay someone to install it for you <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/butbut.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':but:'>

No.... it describes pretty much everything. &nbsp;From what you'll need for an oil drain line to turbo and intercooler sizing and cooling to pipe construction.

And fuel.... fuel is important. &nbsp;Don't forget the fuel.

Maximum Boost is a great book. &nbsp;For beginners or for people that need a bit of refreshing on turbocharging it's great.
