thats a pretty crazy lookin set of headers there. Is that an actual kit purchaseable at some online site? or place in washington? Or is that a bunch of parts from here and there you got to work together? Although i'll probably never get a turbo for my 98, it'd be cool to dream about haha.sigpic -
I was the same way, stick around here and you'll find the time and motivation, If I can get this far so can you. The knowledge is hear, utilize it!!! This is a modified 240sx kit (nissan) off ebay If you were ever to consider it I would just purchase the 240sx turbo manifold and have a flange laser cut, then get someone to weld them together. GT28R (turbo) Custom downpipe and everything else is universal, somewhat!!!!!!!!!!!!!sigpicComment

would be interested to see your complete setup. maybe you could write a "how to"
how long have you had your turbo? running on how many psi?

No psi Beetle orange =-( waiting on injectors and fuel pump) I have been waiting a long time for this pump (FYI) But now that it spools @ 2k......or at least that is when I can begin to slightly hear a tunnel forming.....!!!!!! 
I haven't pushed it passed 2k-3k rpm's because I do not want denotation. So the actuator is completely loose so as not to harm my little 1489cc dohc. My problem is the ecu, this I honestly haven't been investigating as much and would enjoy to obtain more knowledge on this topic. The reason for this is because I wanted to make sure that I could fit everything under the hood and it would spool. One problem at a time, one step at a time. Did lots of investigating through general sites about forced induction and read everything I could about the gt28r
General info but for mazda which I like....
dependable parts......
Where almost everything was purchased......
Local listing for private sell of almost anything..... (Sold the original intercooler that I got with the kit on Craigslist)
The gt28r and gt28rs are very similiar but the gt28r is what I have and recommend for the z5 motor... there will be much debate on this topic I feel it... ( I like this guide very informative to my specific build )
Motivation.......

Thanks, will post more as soon as the rest of my parts show up and the tuning begins. in the meantime, more links...............
this is where I found our oem injectors specs, 161cc @ 3 bar Denso part#195500 3110 these are the injectors I want 195500 4450 but settled for 195500-3040 230cc mazda miata 1.6l injectors.
Basics
My hunt for the 1st links answers.......
Not sure where you live but we call it Shmucks here in Washington (good price, immediate gradification, and cheap, imagine that!)
The Man, the Fabricator!
more basics
I have others but need to think of them................

95protegerippin there is a **** load of research done before just buying a turbo you know nothing about. Some turbo setups are for low compression motors and some high and just throwing a **** setup together can blow your car to peices. From what ive read the gt25 and gt28 turbos are ok for our lego motors.Comment
