Hey all! this is my first post.

History:The 240 is currently being prepped for turbo install. The engine bay has been degreased. The engine has been kept in good working order and most of the car is in mint condition thanks to previous owner and nissan dealer. The 110,- miles have been underpowerd in my opinion so i grabbed my buddies rebuilt t25 that he recieved underwarranty from saab. While he is upgrading to mitsu turbo i figure id try to mimic the sr20det setup. the trim on the turbo is .48 .49 is this going to fit / work well?

i have been reading through previous posts and have a few observations/questions:

obviously

i need 370cc injectors

safc

n62

manifold ... cant find a good store/price

tubing and intercooler should be straitforward

oil line from sending unit to oilpan

what emissions can be KEPT? i have the pdf file of how to remove it all but i want to be most legal i can. (going for stock look)

will replace clutch sometime soon

brakes have been replaced with slotted/drilled rotors. and one complete caliper assembly was replaced last week

i have tein stec springs and kgy struts

i replaced sparkplugs a couple years ago with new distributer cap

wow im getting tired typing..

what type of sensors should be bought ... high impedience ? and where should bov and wastegate be setup? i assume 5 psi? will the t25 be able to be controlled externally not sure about this... alot of t3/t4 info out ... where should maf be located. should the tubes into the stock air intake be rerouted possibly or same place after turbo ehhh i get a headache thinking about this stuff.

and o ya im confused about the cooling options on the turbo... dont want to use 2 types of coolant.

thanks ROSS

Most your questions can be answered by searching around, and looking at pictures, info, and dyno charts about other peoples setups.

Welcome. If you can, can you please size down your pics.... What kind of turbo is it from the saab?? Is it water cooled or just oil? Got to base your system around your turbo due to piping mani and downpipe. Won't need a z32 mafs until you get over 240hp At 5psi that won't happen. What is your power goal? Bunch of classfied turbo parts for sale. AZ is selling his manifold but it's for a t3 turbo.
