Are you gonna be rebuilding any parts of the motor itself before you slap that turbo on or what?

Autometer, AEM, Defi... anything that is proven to work and all that good stuff. I would shoot for electrical gauges, too. I have Autometer Lite (cheaper version) Oil PSI, Oil Temp, and EGT gauges as of now.

There is no point to have a A/f gauge if you don't have a wideband o2 sensor. I am running an AEM wideband and UEGO A/f gauge currently and plan on getting an AEM boost gauge to the match.

Today i got a manual boost controler for 10 bucks.
He also gave me a hks knock off BOV. He said it works, that he just ordered a real Greddy type s so he didnt need it...So i took it. (who would refuse something for free lol)
Is there a way to tell if it works or not? before actually putting it on?



So far i have:
Turbo/manifold/downpipe/oil drain lines/intercooler
Intercooler piping (should be here wednesday)
Boost controller
Blow off valve


__I NEED__
Catch can
Injectors
Gages
Fuel Pump
Exhaust manifold gasket
Little pipes for wastegate/controller
And oil line for turbo/T for the oil (I can get that from like napa and stuff uh?)


Am i missing something? I would like to order everything this weekend...

Oh that came with the manifold/turbo/downpipe. forgot to put that.

Trying to find out what the internal wastegate is set to.
forgot what the guy told me..lol
So i might be needing a air sensor with more bar's..


But the parts list look pretty complete, right? not missing anything important that i have overlooked, have I?
lol
