YOu need to do research man. Start off at www.howstuffworks.com and search TURBO. Once you've got the basic understanding, hit up a few turbo related forums and start getting a feel for what is required, and what numbers people are putting down with your motor. I cannot stress enough the importance of research when it comes to boosting. I thought that I knew it all, and that I was all ready to go. Then I got slapped with some reality in the form of my motor only running on 3 cylinders after boost install. So basically, when I thought I knew, I had no ****ing clue.

DO THE RESEARCH
