Basic Single Turbo setup
 
Assume I have no mod to the car. What the basic things needed for a single turbo setup?

BTW I saw Jason's stage mod list. I know these parts are needed.
ECU
Front Mount Intercooler
Midpipe
Fuel Pump
Turbo Kit
Exhaust

But are all these following parts needed?
Main Drive Pulley
1300cc Injectors
Boost Controller
Pulley Set

Is this a quiz??? haha

PULLEY kit/ Main drive pulley. Anyway, depends on the turbo weither you need the pull kit or not, but you dont need a power pulley, unless you want it, BUT its not Needed...

1300cc injectors are not needed, but for the price
many people get them because you can convert your
old ones. Depending on the turbo, will tell you what
fuel you may need, the pump and stock injectors could
be enough.

BOOST controller, well this I think depends on you, you can tune your ECU so you dont really need one, BUT! if you want to race then do street driving you would want to be able to change it back and forth, especially when you have cold days... I recommend a boost controller.

NEO, i know you already know this right? So whats up?

Here is a minimum single turbo setup.

Single Turbo Kit
ECU - Power FC
Larger Injectors
Fuel pump

Just those 4 things is all you need to run a single. You can actually get away with the stock injectors depending on the boost you want to run.

If you want to do it right the first time, then add:
Intercooler upgrade
High flow cat or midpipe
Catback
Pulleys
Ignition computer

you do not need a front mount to go single that is Bull $hit..... why does everyone think this? single turbos actually run cooler than stock twins so any upgrade from stock is fine unless you want more than 18psi then go a bigger but for front mount it does not matter they just look cooler that is all.IMO

I dont see why you NEED the pulleys... personally i would not add them to my car because I like the alternator working @ full speed, I like my Ac cold and I like the powersteerings rates.. And finally i dont want to lower the speed of the water pump. So personally I think its fine!

What would you say its needed? Singles dont have any adverse effects that i know of..

someone educate me..

Jason 06-07-02 10:30 PM

If you want some extra H.P. get the pulleys. They have no adverse effects on the A/C or water pump. Most people that go single remove the airpump and buy the Greddy pulley set. Thats why I have them listed.
