Hey guys, I'm looking into possibly turbo'ing the car a few months down the road. I read the FAQs, but I was confused about what parts I actually need. Here is what I came up with as far as parts:

New, lower mileage motor
3S-GTE oil pan and drain lines
3S-GTE 2 bar map sensor
3S-GTE Manifold/downpipe
CT26 (twin entry)
MK3 Supra N/A injectors
MK3 Supra intercooler
Intercooler piping
SAFC
Boost controller
Boost gauge
Oil pressure gauge
Headgasket

Now, here are the questions I had. Why must you use the twin entry CT-26? Does the single entry (aka Supra) CT-26 work? Is this because of the 3S-GTE manifold? If I bought an aftermarket 3S manifold, could I then use the Supra CT? I ask because I have access to a few of these.

Also, what is needed concerning the oil and coolant lines? This is where I get confused. I would like this to the as budget of a build as possible, but at the same time be reliable. I would plan to run 6-8psi or so.

go for the 460cc injectors from an RX7, (they're mentioned in one of the later replies to manny's thread) instead of the supra ones. also I'd pring for a front mount intercooler. The supra one is side mount, isn't it? you'll need a fuel pump. and some sort of intake, plus a cutom made exhaust. that's all I can think of right now.

The MK3 Supra one is front mounting, and would be just fine for a simple 6psi setup. I also realize that I would have to get an intake and a fuel pump, I just forgot to add them to the list.

As far as exhaust, I think I'd use the stock one. I'd like to pass inspection as easily as possible, if I even could. I'm sure if I got a rock solid tune, it'd be a possibility.

I don't know the laws in your state, but I've heard texas is as strict as california, so I doubt you'll be able to. I don't think it's legal to turbo a non-turbo car. but check the laws in your state first.

as for exhaust, it's going to be super, super restrictive, plus it'll need to be modified to mate up to the downpipe anyway I think.
