n/a to turbo!!!!!

ok my 86 n/a needs a rebuild so i have a stock turbo coming and stock turbo manifold with a turbo timer. i know im going to need to get a oil line, bov, intercooler, and intercooler pipeing. but i wanna know how to run this stuff and all that. i know aaron cake has a post on that. but i hurd the t2 turbo was liquid and oil cooled how would i hook that up? and will a t2 oil pan fit on a n/a motor.

Start by reading the turbo swapping links in the FAQ. They have all the information you need. Then if you still need clarification, search for your answer.

Djon don't give false information. I've hit 10 psi on n/a ecu with 550/680cc injectors. But now i'm running the right ecu which is N370 for S5.

I just used the nipple on the back of the rear iron for the feed line and water nipple on the back of the water pump for the return. It's not all that hard... Just search around.

Also why switch oil pans? There both the same.... (When I mean same no return line on the pan) Where you return the oil on a stock set up is in the front cover.

Easiest method is the hack-job TII LIM/UIM swap, spacing/anything else trying to use the stock turbo is more work than it's worth.

ok im going to keep searching for info and things. o i thought the oil return line was on the oil pan but if not im not going to switch out the oil pan. so im going to need a different ecu.

Easiest method is the hack-job TII LIM/UIM swap, spacing/anything else trying to use the stock turbo is more work than it's worth.

will everything line up if i did a hack-job or would there be lots more work that way.

just swap in a 13bt and use your na wiring but depending on if its a s4 or s5 you will need to get the turbo pressure sensor and turbo ecu. you can use the na drivetrain but not recommended or at least use the turbo tranny an the na diff.
