OK...obviously new here...but anyways here's the info...I've got myself a 91' coupe. No engine, but I'm getting one for free from a friend of mine that is swapping an RB25DET into his hatch. The engine came from his obviously, it's a KA24DE with around 90,000 miles, very good condition, and is a 5spd. Now, here comes the question. I've also gotten hold of, for free, a turbo and intercooler from a 1991 turbo supra. Now I know I'll have to make a manifold, bigger injectors, fuel pump, but what else would I need, and does anyone have suggestions or comments on the other parts?

Hey, thanks alot. I forgot to mention I also have a 1st gen dsm BOV for free from another friend of mine, haha. For intercooler and other piping I just planned on ordering mandrel bent pipes from JC Whitney and cutting/welding them. I'm definantly getting a boost gauge and a controller. Now...for a fuel computer, what would you suggest? It can't be super expensive seeing as this is a budget type deal (if you haven't noticed from all the freebies), but I still want something decent/reliable. Any suggestions would help...I'm not going for insane either, I'm probably only going to run anywhere from 6 - 8 psi. Thanks.
