Turbo build

So i purchased a few parts for my turbo setup this weekend. I got a hy35 turbo, the turbo manifold, 440cc injectors, a megasquirt system, no egr intake manifold, fuel rail, two sensors, msd ignitions controller, msd coil, distributor, spindle, 60mm throttle body, radiator cap and a harness for the megasquirt. I have to go pick up the intake manifold, fuel rail and injector connectors this weekend. I'll probably order more parts to finish my kit quicker.

Pretty awesome! What's your plan for the turbo oil dump tube? Going to chop into the n/a oil pan or get a turbo one?

you can modify the stock oil pan yourself luckily, they are a soft thin metal so the 2 gas torch and some strong solder and go to town! that or do a bolt on style one.

I will have a n/a head, a intake manifold, fuel rail, injectors, exhaust manifold. Thats all the parts I can think of now. My car is a 82 just to answer the question that will probably be asked.

yeah they are worth stuff, but honestly, its hard to sell off the NA stuff other than the injectors and possibly fuel rail.
