Default ABOUT TO ORDER A TURBO KIT!!!

About to order Dezod's kit and I have tons of questions

1. Should I get ball bearings? Is it worth it?
2. Should I go with the F2 Series Dual Ball Bearings instead???
3. Do I need a PnP Harness for the E-Manage Ultimate or does it come with one?
4. Should I get a flywheel?
5. Should I get an Ingall's torque dampener? Is it worth it?


What else do I need? And advice, suggestions, or tips would be GREATLY appreciated.

Why don't you ask these questions in the thread you already have in the F/I section bro... Everything is good to have but not necessary... And yes the kit comes with the pnp harnes.. Flywheel and clutch if you think you're gonna be pushing 325... Ball bearing is for quicker spool I believe so it depends on what you want bro..

Then WAIT until tommorow...whats the rush? it isnt shipping out tonight!

Call them tommorow to get the facts, otherwise be dumb and learn nothing. Ill be reading about how you blew up your car, and cant figure out why in a month.


Dont rush, otherwise you will kick yourself later

They said Competition Stage 4 Clutch

I`m sure there`s a good tuner shop in Denver to tune it.

Who's installing it? how much PSI are you thinking about running? what kind of boost controller are you getting? what kind of gauges are you getting?

you won't get 325 whp with 8 psi, you'd need atleast 10, possibly 12psi.

lighter flywheels and ball bearings help the turbo spool faster, so will a good high flow exhaust.

while talking about boost controllers. why not try the aem tru-boost gauge style boost controller?

I have a Magnaflow Catback, so is that good enough?

I'll have to look into them

Anything is good enough if you want it to be.

Get a turbo back for best performance. Remember, unlike N/A, in turbo cars there is only power to be gained from less backpressure from the exhaust. Ideally the best exhaust is a straight dump to the ground but we all know that isnt legal. And believe me, unless you're deaf you dont want it to dump.

for your levels of boost, i think you should get 2.5 inch turbo back exhaust like the dezod exhaust that he offeres with his turbo kits. if you buy them together he gives you a discount on the exhaust.

That's not true especially for street cars. Tuned exhaust runners, etc. are built for a reason. Your exhaust design depends on the rest of your motor. There is no one design fits all where a "straight dump to the ground" as you say is best.

I already ordered the kit and I didn`t get an exhaust system. I have a catback from Magnaflow. So, 2.25" is way better than a stock exhaust would be. I will at some point get a 3" catback fabbed

All I need to do is lower the compression and get a better spring for the wastegate to handle more boost and turn it up right?

lowering the compression aint cheap.. i think low compression pisons go for like 500 and then you have to put them in.. plus you need to get some new rods.. and then your gonna need a boost controller to better control the psi
