Garret blow-off valve p/n 714341-0002
tC injectores (550cc?)
DC headers?

I have read that most turbo kits come with new headers. Should I use DC headers, some other perfomance header, or just stick with stock(i doubt it lol)?. I feel like i'm missing something so please let me know

dont know about headers w/ a turbo? should you be turboing your car?!

[rkvin21]

well t/c will probably be the last thing I do to my car but ya. I want to accelerate as fast as possible till I have to let off the gas for the speed limit. I'm starting with the small stuff then working my way up but I need to know my end result so I can choose my parts wisely.

Also what kind of headers would be a good choice to use with a t/c if any?

oh boy

[rkvin21]

too small? lol. well ironically they give diameter and A/R specifics but I don't know how to read those yet. they list displacement and Hp. are these numbers after it is installed or before?

Is anybody going to actually answer my question on headers or do I have to say intake manifold? lol

the header, or exhaust manifold on a turbo car is often custom and thus replaces the normal header.

my earlier comment was based on the fact that you started buying stuff but dont really seem to know how a turbo works.

and not to get into it, but a turbo sits on the exhaust manifold, the exhaust gas spins the turbo which is connected to the intake air on the other side compressing it to a given compression (psi).

and i dont want to be a dink, but maybe you ought to check out howitworks.com or wikipedia or google some turbo info before carrying on. im not sure you have an accurate scope of how big of a project doing a custom turbo setup is...

What do you mean? Him doing a rolling start? or me being behind by a car length? Also I don't think he knows how to fully use his car yet. I could be wrong. He has been driving a manual longer than I have (5 years vs 6 months) and he still has hard shifts.

Your gonna need A LOT of work done to the Yaris to beat the Mustang... the new one's run mid to high 13's

IK its gonna take alot of work but I like to have goals and this is a pretty big one. Oh and by the way i'm talking about 0-60 not 1/4 mile lol

2008 mustang GT 0-60.. 5.2 seconds..

me on 10lbs of boost (just about all the stock rods will handle) 6 seconds...


so be prepared to build yourself a complete engine.. rods, pistons, valvtrain, get that head looked at, might as well Balance the rotating parts..

remember my $8000 budget?

make it $10000



or you could buy a Fbody mustang for $4000, put about $2000 in it and run 10's...

wait i mean... 0-60 in mid 4second range

Anyways, just a side question. What is the average cost of a Mustang GT '09 in the states now?

MSRP: $29,160

^ That's roughly the price they told me I would have to pay if I wanted to import a Yaris TS to Lebanon. Thanks.

[Tamago]

if you go with too small of a tire, you'll now have to shift into third to hit TRUE 60mph lol... which means you're now slower

[Thej3sta2]

intake mani, supercharger, underdive pulleys, light weight wheels, or you could just spend a couple grand on a 3sgt and try to retro fit it.

when me and sabretooth swapped back seats there was a bar that was seprate from the seat that held the seat to the chassi. We were wonder if Someone were to leave that bar there, Would it assist with the suspension?

no, it doesn't directly bolt to anything that counts.. but it makes an EXCELLENT place to mount a racing harness :D

as far as the 3SGTE swap... it'll make you a very fast car.. that's still WRONG WHEEL DRIVE and very heavy, won't handle or turn like it used to, it'll be front heavy and want to swap ends on even the slightest of corners..

not a good idea if you intend to drive the car around turns ;)
