I want to put a turbo on my car and i cant afford a kit so i think im going to try and find all the parts i need for one from a junkyard or something, could any one tell me all the parts you need to put a turbo on an NA.

 

Turbo, exhaust manifold, ecu from same series car, turbo II transmission, driveshaft, and rear end, oil supply lines, turbo II intake manifolds, new exhaust, turbo II maf, boost sensor, turbo II throttle cable if you decide to actually use the intake manifolds, intercooler, larger injecters, thats all I can really think of now but I know im forgetting some stuff. Bye the way, search. This get asked sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooo many times. And dont try to turbo your car if its high miles, and if its not, dont plan on running lots of boost unless you plan to do extensive tuning on those high comp rotors.

 

1st of all there is no "kit" you can buy.

and 2nd. don't bother trying to turbo yours. if you ever manage to get it running for less then the cost of buying a turbo RX7. it probbaly won't last very long.

 

^Total agreement

 

Buy a TII. I can get you most of one minus the engine/tranny for cheap local probably.

 

Don't bother.

Look, a TurboII only sells for about $700 more than your current car. Just sell it and buy a TurboII. The insurance rate is the same in most cases.

Evil Aviator,

Yes, I have found the pricing to be pretty accurate over the years. It beats the heck out of pure speculation, the used car dealer's piece of junk NADA book that says your Ferrari F40 is only worth $50 for trade-in, or the Ebay teenagers who try to sell their 10AE or GTUs for ten million dollars.

I think it's unfortunate that so many people waste their time and money trying to convert their NA into a TII because they are under the misconceptions that:
1) A TII is too expensive.
2) The TII insurance rate is too high.

 

I will have to do something since the verts like mine only came as NA. I agree that if I had a regular 7 I would just buy the TII though.

As for KBB.com I am kinda ticked at them lately since my 2000 Astro van that they said would be worth $8000, I cannot seem to sell for $5000, I only bought it to make money and now I think breaking even will be a blessing. From now on I will only trust what I see others getting on the streets for vehicles. The "books" have never been accurate in my experiences.

well there is 1 kit for the n/a engine that i have found, but i dont know how much i'd trust these guys, it just looks like a group of ppl that put it together, not sure how knowledgeable they are or how good the kit is....
