Its almost like an addiction...
maybe it really is an addiction
Boost is like drugs...the more you boost, the more you get hooked!
but to the OP, my best advice for you is to learn more about turbo setups for our car, what makes them tick, the good the bad, the UGLY, and how to maintain crap...
and save up the extra cash and do it right
take my word and probably MANY others' on this site, do it RIGHT the first time, so there will not be a money wasting 2nd time!

And I know they tune to which i heard is like 100 an hr. true? false? lol she said the emanage comes pretuned but to get my car fully tuned when installed. I was thinking about installing it and then towing it down to florida to get it done. Of course this is all if she accepts my offer. thats what im shooting for smoke...i mean i want it just to go faster but beating those cars would be a plus. lol. The oil pan comes pretapped to so thats good Ive been reading that it sux to get that off. You guys have any tips as far as tuning or install common problems? Also ima need to get guages how much will that run?

Same here, lost count a LONG time ago. Well, didn't exactly loose count, just did not bother to keep up with it cause it's a heartache...
My gauges alone are nearly $1k.

for 2 grand this guy can get a dezod manifold for 450, a turbo for 500, custom pipe from turbo to Throttle body & intake pipe for turbo inlet for 200bucks, 500 bucks for wastegate, custom dump pipe and assorted oil feed and drains, another 200 on a BOV and you got spare cash. run it at 5psi and you have a quick little tC........then when you have money to spend, go front mount and turn up the boost. but you should never ever go turbo on a budget, you always will have to spend more than you think. something always goes unplanned

Not for nothing but i think that method is pointless.....
A non-intercooled non-fuel managed boosted tc at 5 psi
Is in my opinion, not going to make nearly enough hp to even
Warrant spending 2k on.
Just do it right from the get-go

word...thanks marcelo still waiting on word from iluvmytc. She is sellling her dezod kit for a good price. Comes with everything but gauges. If I knew more than I did I would go custom but since I dont I wouldlnt want to mess it up. Ya im not trying to do a budget turbo because doing it wrong like you all said could really screw me and my wallet! Anyone know of good places to get gauges?

That's not that crappy ebay turbo that popped on you? If not, my bad, thought it was the Ebay turbo.

Naw...sorry didn't see that. What brand turbo is it? And why are you selling anyway?
