i been looking around and i might have missed it but my question is, when i bought my 240sx months ago the gentlemen gave me a turbo with it. now i went to take a look at it and it is :ai research gil 2" thats the only thing i can find on it.

with that said i want to slap it on my 240sx which is automatic now can i just slap it one or do i need any extra aftermarket parts?

and if i i can just slap it on what do i need besides just the turbo itself?

to be honest, i'm not saying you can't do it... but you probably can't by the way your present your self.

but to he helpful, you're turbo is and AIRESEARCH (one word) it's not a bad turbo, at least it's not Chinese garbage.

here's what you need:
turbo manifold
external waste gate (maybe 38mm for that size turbo)
turbo oil piping / return
oil restictor
FMIC with piping
retuned ECU
a tune to go with the ECU
BOV
larger injectors
down pipe
exhaust
wide band AFR meter
and WAY too much $$
(if you do it right, it will typically cost well over $2,000.. easily)

and in the end, you'll probably just end up throwing a rod through your block and wasting lots and lots of money. lmk if you'd be interested in selling that turbo, you can PM me. you can make money instead of throwing it away.. just trying to help you out here.
