So I have decided to go KA-T over the Sr swap, which I believe is a better choice after doing some research. I have a strong running KA w/ 140k miles on it. I believe it was previously boosted because There's an FPR connected. So basically I want to get a T28 turbo possibly the Gti-r pulsar turbo because of it's rebuildability, but I also want to go with the T2871r. Which one do you guys think I should get? I am going to keep the t28 for probably a year or two before I upgrade to the T3/T4 so I want to get fuel mods that work for both T28 and T3/T4 turbos. What size injectors should I get? Will I need a new MAF? Should I get a z32 MAF? I hear I need an FMU or FPR do I need both of these, or just one of these? Also, What is the difference between the two (please fully explain, I'm a noob). Do I NEED an Oil cooler for the T28? Also, Do I need to get a new ECU? if so, can anyone suggest a mid-priced good ECU. What exacally is a Fuel Delivery System? and Do I need one? If so, can anyone suggest one?. Also, What does the term piggybacking mean? HAHA this post is Thread is Chalk full of questions, Thanks for Helping a !!!!!

I will take forever to answer your question.

It all starts from this question.

"How much horsepower do you want to make?"

Read the sticky, it already have plenty of info for noobs.

P.S. A bolt on turbo kit could be better for you in my opinion.

There are plenty of threads in this forum about this exact situation.

Look for posts by WDRACING. He's the moderator of this forum, and extremely knowledgable.

Also, when he sees this thread he's going to tell you to check the size of your signature because it is too big, fyi.

Enjoy your searching
