i think you need a wideband as well. didnt see one in the list but hay ive had afew as well

and if you need an intake tube to go from the turbo maf sensor, check my sig i got a stock evo 8 one for sale

 

he does have it on there its #14 on the need list

 

Its good to see my turbo has found a good home!

Can't wait to see it finished! Keep the dream alive!

 

like i said i had a few last nite. good luck with the build. you only know where to go to get help if you need it

josh

 

o and i have the tube from bov to ic pipe as well

josh

 

Sweet i might get that evo intake tube there is a cheap ebay one for 50$ idk what one i will go for. And when i was working at the JEGS Engine Master's Challenge today i was talking to my teacher's and some builder's about boosting my vette. So as soon is this is boosted..... Also thank you White knight for most of the parts :P hope you get things worked out and you boost your car soon. Also JRR what number's are you putting down and how long you been boosted.

 

according to my ipod touch "pocketdyno" (free app by the way) it said im doin 263whp and right now im runnin 11lbs of boost. i boosted my car last labor day so over a yearnow. 7lbs until 2months ago when i got the boost controller.

ill sell the intake tube and bov tube combo deal if u want and need it. i have no use for them now.


josh

 

if yur still lookin for the intake hose and bov recirc hose ill do 35 shipped. lmk. josh

 

gonna have to get the turbo to manifold gasket, metal one, ones that come with the mani will burn up. going to want a catch can otherwise ull have oil all over.

 

Thank you i will change that on the list right now. How about the manifold to turbo will i also need to get a new one of those?

 

i think u messed up, mani to turbo is the one i said to get, the mani to head is also metal and yea u should get that. napa has it ( exhaust mani gasket )

 

O, oops my bad. Does anyone know if most dealer's carry the turbo to manifold gasket, and the turbo to o2 dump gasket in stock because the local dealerships are slow and take in excess if a month to get parts in.

 

idk think they do its all special order for me it usually took a week then again to get parts

 

ah ok will have to order those is soon then :P thanks
