Im tired of my turbos going out. So, im jumping in.I want to get a gt2871r braided lines z32 maf ?? injectors

What els should I get? I have a turbo timer and all the normal boltons. I want to keep this under 1500$. I want this thing to last longer then my next 6 motors, that kind of reliability.BTW its a redtop sr if it makes a difference, I also want to make an oil cooler if I have extra funds.

Id loved to know this myself. What makes a turbo go out? I dont believe it was starved of anything, but I dont live in my turbo so I couldnt tell you whats happening to them.

S15 turbo is cheaper, and you can get a used Garrett T28 for around $300 to be cost effective.

^^^^^ yep, i would go s15, more driftability, also match the turbo up with some nice s15 injectors.

what kind of engine management do you have? or do you?

how many turbos have you gon through?

Hey, you have the Tomei A/F gauge right? Would you happen to have install instructions for that?

yup, what he said, and maybe consider getting some 550 injectors for backup. 300 whp is more than enough for drifting.

This is the third. Im not buying another used turbo. Its retarded to buy a turbo that flows what an s15 does, when I can spend 300 more and ahve a turbo that flows enough so that if I decide I want more, like to drag or road race. I can have it without buying another turbo. Its practical, and logical. The s15 turbo is like 8-900 new. I can get 71R's for 1k.
