You don't mention what parts you need, but I'm sure a few guys on here can help you find just about anything turbo related you could need.
Do you actually have the turbo installed and running on the car yet? What did you do for exhaust manifolds? You say you have a TO4E, based on the pictures its clearly a T3/T4 hybrid, what size compressor and turbine wheels are you using? What are you using for tuning and what size injectors? What other modification have you done to the car?

is the system actually IN the car or is it on a bench?
storing turbo parts in the trunk technically doesn't mean you have a turbo in your car.

to be honest i have no clue what they used to re-tune it all i know about the ecu end of it is after they tuned the car it made a huge diff in how it ran,they did tell me i should look for a 300zx turbo ecu and they could do something to that (getting rid 2 maf sensors down to 1) and id be a lot better off. when it comes to the computer end of building the car i let them deal with it, i been building cars for 30 years and i learned one thing "if ya dont know take it to someone who knows"

I'm gonna have to call

There is 7 pictures, 3 with an intercooler on the front of the car, and none showing most of the parts needed or installed on the car. If you are so mechanically inclined and built all the stuff needed why don't you have pictures or info on all that? You avoided my question about what you did for an exhaust manifold for the turbo.

Also there are very few shops in the country that can modify a 3rd gen ECU to accept changes. You are telling me you just happend to stumble into one without knowing it? For some reason they could chip and modify your ECU, dyno tune it for a turbo system, and they couldn't even tell you where to get higher flowing injectors for your car? Not to mention you are running stock injectors with a turbo, how much power could you really be making? 250hp crank? Even that would really be pushing the stock injectors, and the stock automatic transmission.

Somethings are not adding up...

lol first off im a photographer and if you had any idea how many pics i have to go threw to find anything you understand the pics that i put up are a few of the ones off my FB

second,exhaust manifold ya built it pretty much reversed the head pipe built the bracket to use 3 of the bell housing bolts just under the dis. in front of the trany like i said before i have built pretty much everything for it myself including brackets

third, i havent been to there shop or called them yet to even asked them figured i could get some advise from a few people on here first before **** away a bunch of money having them build MY car for me id rather do it myself

ok as of right now,
yup the turbo is on the car and it is running very good,now ill list **** for you
of the things ive bought NOT built
turbo,9-12psi external waste gate,braided feed line,oil line inlet and outlet flanges,inter cooler & duck work clamps that crap,oil pan flange for the return line,a/r & vac/boost gauges,voltage gauge
and thats about it for what ive paid cash for the rest of the stuff i have built like the head pipe because the turbo isnt on the exhaust manifold its mounted to a bracket bolted to the bell housing and the head pipe bolts to that the brackets to mount everything else inter cooler duck work and all that stuff ya not hard to figure out i built that stuff as well, anything else you would like to know?

as far as what F1 dyno did to the ecu and how they did it all they said was they pop tuned the computer remember this wasnt ever a turbo car im not running half the sensors most turbo cars have so everything is adjusted by hand including fuel pressure,boost,the waste gate.i dont get out my lap top when i want to fix something i get out my tools. and to date ive got less then $2000 invested in my car

you're not the first guy to show us pics of turbos that's not installed and can't come up a reasonable response when the questions are asked. so we just shoot up the BS meter...we don't care...just that for the ppl to actually DID the work spent a lot of time and etc on it.

trust me...every turbo 3rd gen here are pretty much custom built...yes braided lines and etc.. there's no "kit" for these cars.

trust me i know,try being in maine and doing it there is nothing here to start with so anything i have to buy is a huge pain so i kinda like to ask around before i start droping a bunch a cash to find out i didnt need something
as i find the pics and stuff i will be putting them up its not a matter of not having then its a matter of having way to many pics on my computer
there is a folder of pics on FB of my car with the first body kit on then some of when i put this kit on it after i got hit by a moron trying to pass in the break down lane that kinda crap
