here's the minimum list:
turbo manifold oil lines bigger injectors FMU or AFC fuel pump blow off valve IC (optional: needed for more than 5 psi) piping custom downpipe intake filter turbo flange a/f gauge (not needed if you got an AFC) boost gauge egt gauge gauge pod check valve optional: external wastegate boost controller turbo timer more gauges ignition timing controller any other goodies you want you'll also need stuff like oil, gaskets or gasket maker, hoses, etc. i spent about 3500 so far, i definitely went the most $$ route you could go, i bought everything new, and added a lot of optional stuff. prices depend on what you get, labor depends on where you go. if you have any questions about the install, post em. you really should read up and do some research yourself. turboing is tricky, and it's better if you understand exactly what's going on with your car. i've spent close to 3500 on my 7afte, but you can get it done probably for 2000 if you buy used stuff and really shop. -------------------- 1994 Lexus ES300

...la...la...la...
well, I have seen Corollas equiped with 7AFE get into 13s (the only problem - they they were "not Auto") but it's always possible to beef up auto trans (**** my handles 14.7 QM) |
