At this pointI plan to build up the bottom end with eagle rods and pistons (open to suggestions) and turbo my d16y7. The thing is I have an automatic so im not sure how that will effect me but my goals are about 200-225hp. Is there anything i should do differently for an auto? I want a turbo that will give me good acceleration as i dont really need any top speed so what should i be looking for? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Would a kit like this be worth it or should i just piece my own together?

Im really open to any suggestions so any help would be appreciated!

 

Sorry i forgot to ask, what would be a good size injector for my engine and goals?Shouldi throw in the Akmee d series valvetrain kit with a mini me or should i shy away from that like some people have told me?

 

id steer clear of ebay kits.. the money you save on them will go straight back into fixing and or replacing the parts that came with it.

your sig says its about pride... so take pride in your turbo. buy something high quality. you get what you pay for.. so save up n get something really good.

 

ebay turbo kits are a bad idea. Use Pete's Grocery List and piece your own kit together, and remember to get a real good tune too. Turbo = you get what you pay for.

 

if you have money for eagle rods and a hi quality pistonthen i would assume youd have enough $$ not to cheap out on the turbo kit

Im not trying to cheap out lol i just didn't know if the kit would be a good purchase. Im definetly willing to spend the money to make the turbo as good as possible but im not sure what turbo would be good for my goals, any suggestions on what turbo to run? Also ive read things about people doing stuff to there auto trannys to make them better for turbo app's but they never said what so is there anything i can and should do to make the tranny better?

 

ditch that auto tranny because the amount of power your gonna ut down its gonna burn up the first day

 

well is there anything i can do to the tranny fome keeping it from burning up? I was looking at an upgraded twin turbo 300zx w/stock auto tranny but they did some very minor mods to the tranny but it didnt say what.

Anyone have any turbo suggestions or any suggestions for the turbo kit period?

 

Why would you want to keep the auto?
