Turbo question

I already have a GS-T side mount intercooler (will change to front mount later), 450cc injectors (wont use until build internals), stock GS-T fuel pump (not sure if it is any better, probably going to get a whalbro pump instead), greddy type s blow off valve, boost gauge, and air/fuel gauge. All I need more is custom oil lines, 2 1/2 inch downpipe, 2 1/4 inch intercooler piping, fuel pressure regulator (not sure witch one, heard of people using vortech 12:1) and missing link. Anything else you know of that I am missing? After everything is working fine I will get a boost controller, build internals, SAFC, and a front mount intercooler.

Here's some pics of the parts on my turbo install, hope that'll help.

And the link for the SFMU, since you're planning to rebuild and already have bigger injectors, you're gonna need some type of unit that can allow you to adjust your base fuel pressure. The regular FMU will not allow you to do that.

Good luck and like I said, use the search on the 2gnt board, it has a wealth of info. A couple of peeps there have a custom setup using the T-2small......I mean T-25

No problem man, glad to help. Hit me up on e-mail, PM, or AIM if you have any other questions. Tell you a couple of things though, a radiator cap and the exhaust manifold studs from a GS-T will fit
I got the radiator cap, but have yet to replace the POS allen manifold bolts that the HRC comes with.
