Main things for 96+ 420A's is to:
1) Make sure you have a missing link
2) Make sure your fuel system is up to par (Fuel pressure, feed and return lines and some sort of FP regulator ie, SFMU or megasquirt)
3) If you are going to boost more than 9psi, you need a bottom end rebuild to be safe.
4) DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Lack of research will blow your car up.

For more technical info on the 420A go to www.2gnt.com Be forewarned though, they are not going to hold your hand like a little baby.

Sean (420aturbo) is going to be helping me put all my turbo shit in and he said he would help him to so the installation isn't really much a deal but time after time I've told you aaron here is what you need:

Turbo
Manifold
Missing link
Downpipe
12:1 FMU
Intercooler w/piping
BOV
Oil line kit
of course the proper flanges and gaskets, based on what turbo you get etc.
Then of course a few little bull shit parts


When he said he was gonna ask about this I told him most people would say no because there are so few people on here with turboed 420a's....and I was right

Keep your car stock as a daily driver and get a Eclipse GST or GSX or Talon TSI/TSI AWD for modding.
