yeah i was def planning on getting a new cluth.

but for the most part i was just wondering about internals or other engine parts that need upgrading before the 8-9psi boost.

im getting a turbo from a friend its the oem 16g out of an evo and its coming with a wastegate actuator so will the 7-10psi spring off of speedcorps work?

Should be fine. Just save up for pistons and rods so you can make some real power later

You should be able to drop in pistons and rods with the motor in the car. No need for a complete rebuild since its only at 50k

ya.. a motor swap takes atleast 1 full day.. if not 2 (if you dont have to much experience doing it)

and swapping pistons and rods is just a matter of taking the oil pan off and taking the intake manifold and head off.. i would say your looking at 2 days down time for the car either way.. but you do not need another motor unless your planning on spending alot of money at a machine shop first..

i have two motors.. but thats cuz i blew the first one (as you know).. but i will be putting all my internal parts directly into the new/working motor and upgrading the proper parts with each mod

straight stock with no upgrades?

not even fuel injectors or fuel pump?

or just no internal engine upgrades.
