Help with stage 0 Please
hello, i am buying a stage 0 turbo off of FireStorm on scionlife and this is what all im getting. is there anything else i should consider buying to make it run right. im not talking to make more power, but i mean just to make it so i dont blow anything up or mess anything up. i dont know a whole lot so no bashing please. haha
I'm Getting:
Evo Big 16G
Manifold
Turbo Concepts WG with 6.5psi Spring I believe
Gold + Purple BOV Inserts
I have a Gold WG Spring not sure the psi I think 10?
HKS BOV
Megan Boost Gauge
"T" Fitting
All Oil Lines + Vaccum Lines
2.5" downpipe
Couplers
Pipe's
Intercooler NOT included. This is only for stage 0 Setup!

id get some engine management to pull back a lil timing if you have a 10 psi spring...all it takes is one single boost spike when its cold out to crack ur piston rings...id never run a car without management regardless of what anyone told me
1) Engine management
2)Intercooler
3)Wideband o2 sensor/gauge
4)different turbo kit

I don't think his spring is 10psi.
the stage 0 should be 5-6psi
AFR guage is a very good thing to have. Bigger injectors will help as well with a stage 0.
EMS is a good thing on a turbo car since your turbo kit will run better with a good tune

The car is at 6.5psi according to my boost gauge.
I have spoken to very many Stage 0 owners in the past and it is very reliable.
The reason I didn't run engine managment on my car was because:
I wasn't going to pay $300 for a E-manage, then $400 To get it tuned just to get maybe 15more hp?
An Intercooler will help you of course. I HAD one but got lazy and sold it.
Also I Have no idea where i put the BOV inserts so looks like You wont get them lol. There like $10 anyway.
Your also getting a Manual Boost Controller as well I forgot to mention that.
As far as the WG Spring its the stock one. I am including a 10psi spring.
As a side note, I love this kit. Power puts down I had not 1 issue with it. (Besides anoying oilpan leak). But Honestly I would bet anything everyone running Stage 0's is one satisfied person and love it.
Thats why I can't wait till I order my Turbo Toyota's Stage 2 kit....
