I have been looking into buying a single turbo upgrade, preferably the T-78, The kit comes complete with top quality parts, stainless manifold, turbo,wastegate, air filter, it also includes all necessary hardware and instructions. I understand the stock fuel system is able of getting some where near 525hp. This kit says "400+ RWHP at 15psi on pump gas and with proper tuning ".
What else do you all reccomend I purchase so my engine gets the most HP is can get.
Obviously I'll purchase a dp, I already have exhaust (hks super dragger) its pretty much stock, but i have put new vaccum lines just to be safe.
please comment back with ideas or sugestions on which items i should buy, fuel system, electronics,ecu upgrade, ect ect..
thanks - jim

 

I doubt (actually I'm sure) you can't get 525hp out of the stock fuel system. Umm....Maybe you should do a little more research, the kit comes with a downpipe. You are going to need a fuel system, definitely a standalone ecu PFC/E6K, boost controller, intercooler, and a good purchase would be a radiator

 

you don't have the automatic tranny still, do you? saw that in your profile.

 

no I bought a manual tranny for it its on its way. thanks for your comments i'll be sure to take them into consideration is that haltech ecu any good?

 

how hard is to install the turbo yourself... i have swaped out the stock twins and didn't seem to be a pro0blem... do you need an upgraded fuel pressure regulator... i have the 550's in the primaries and 1300's in the secondaries. are there any welding involved...and do you need to upgrade to a fmic.. i have a stock mount greddy.

 

The SMIC will work fine. You might be ok with the 550/1300 combo but you will be limited to how much boost you can run. The insatllation of a turbo kit is fairly easy. If you have taken off your stock turbos then the install of a singe turbo should be a piece of cake.

 

I wanted to put 720cc for prim, and 1600cc for secondary, hmm, i was going to go with the 3-row greddy they say it can hold 500+ so thats just perfect in my scenerio.
