Default Pre-turbo questions

I want to go turbo on my '06 auto t/c. However, after talking to a guy at my local shop he suggested getting suspension work before i get power. I agree. But now i'm wondering what else i should get before i go turbo. Should i get a tranny cooler, guages, anything else first??? More than likely when i have $3000 to drop on a kit i am going to want to get it right away.

if you only have 3,000 you cant get susupension first then a turbo its just not enough money, i dont think you need to get a new suspension, because you can only get the ZPI stage 0 kit or the greddy with no engine or fuel emange, because you only have the 3,000, you do need a boost gauge, and i would recommend and air/fuel wideband gauge also, but other then that i wouldnt get anything else i would also recommand you buy the ZPI stage 0 kit

i think you misunderstood me....i will spend what money i do save on everything else first, then spend 3000+ dollars on a kit....the money was not the issue, i was just looking for piece of mind

It'll be nice to get some sways and at least TRD springs on the car before you add too much power, as, even the stage 0 is a bit of juice for the stock car to handle.

A Wideband UEGO / Boost guage are manditory... and your dreams are the limit if you want anything more.... give Kenny or Keisha a call at ZPI... Toll FREE (866) 845-1807 and they will help you with anything you need prior and during and when you want MORE!
