turbo upgrade

so i've been out of the rotary game for a couple years now. finally picking up another TII. but i'm a little rusty on rotary knowledge.

its going to be my track car and i'm aiming for around 300-350whp. good power band.

this is what i'm plannig to pick up:

t3/t4
new exhaust manifold, wastegate, and FMIC.
also probably just going to run a piggyback unit + FCD and larger injectors (not sure what size) and a fuel pump.

am i picking up the right parts or is there more i should get?

also, the stock boost level is 8psi right? can i get to the 300whp on 13psi?

i'd go with a standalone instead of a piggyback...the rest sounds about right. a koyo would be a good idea. your last question depends on the turbo you are using

How much would you want for your stock turbo, manifold and WG? =P

As to the question...i don't really know. lol BUT from what i do know you're ont he right track.

Go with large injectors right away though...you're gonna want more power. =D


Upgrade your fuel lines too.

Anything with T3 in the name is too small.

For a full turbo upgrade, a standalone is highly recommended.
