This may be a really silly question. But exactly how do you make your own turbo kit yet have to ask us how to install it?

Sorry to not inform you better.
i mostly build and tune turbo hondas, my friend has just got a 97 nissan maxima. he wanted to buy the kit but i told him that i can peices on out for him and tune it.
i got a the:
turbo w/ heat shield and accersories = ebay $250
tail wastegate = used $50
all flanges = have a plasma cutter , cut my own out
intercooler = $200
i can fabricate all the intercooler pipes and ypipe, full cat-back= free
z32 tt MAF= used $70
255 fuel pump = $80
Fuel regulator = $100
370cc /300zx injectors= used , sent to rc to get checked, $100
dsm blow off valve = Free
apexi S-AFC= used $100
JWT custom chip = $300/ just want the eprom changed to my specs
CC stage 2 clutch = shop discount $250
TOTAL: 1500
i have a shop and i also have a wideband to tune it first to 12:1 then take it to the dyno. ill have a boost controller to move from 4psi daily to 10psi on a stock motor.
i usally work more with hondas put have never worked with nissan turbo, i can see pic of the install ad know where it goes , but besides moving the battery to the back and the stock intake box, what els do i need to fabricate to fit the turbo in there. thanxs

Im here just to get help on install tips , oK i don't reall care if you guys think my setup is BS, you don't know me.
I thought people here that actuall have installed their turbo kits could give me some tips!
the Jwt ecu i got used from a 96 maxima that has already been preped for 370cc and the z32 maf.

I didnt mean any offense, I am really sarcastic whenever I type anything. Anyways i have some slightly more detailed pics here, maybe they can be a start.
http://www.eng.buffalo.edu/~ctnewman/turbopictures
also, i think it has been discussed before, but unless that JWT ecu has been programmed for boost, I dont think you will get enough fuel out of it + Z32 injectors/maf. I could be mistaken tho.
I think this has been covered, and it should be easy to figure out mathematically based on current FMU users FP/boost settings on stock injectors compared to what you can flow at base fuel pressure with the Z32 injectors at 95% duty.
I can take the time to figure it out if you cant find it elsewhere.
Care, on sharing where you got all that stuff so cheap?

A quick look over your list and I didn't see what you had to install so much as needing to, well, you said it best:
"i can fabricate all the intercooler pipes and ypipe"
If you get so far as fabricating the feedpipe, then you're doing good and shouldn't need help "installing" a pipe you just created on the car.
check out my website for a examples & help.

what is your screen name AOL? im also in the mechanical engineering program. where do you work now as a mechanical engineer? My shop is in albany i just got to school in buffalo, might stay for part of the summer, also might bring my integra up. i can bring my wideband and we tune the can the A/F.

no offence but ive seen alot of used T3/T4's and T4's go for around 250 on ebay and i dont see why they wouldnt do 15psi more or less 9. ill have to see in the future when i buy one but im not worried because i know a honda guy at school who has an ebay t3 on his car and it works just fine

What does it matter what he payed for it. I know at least 20+ people that have used turbo and payed anywhere from $250-300 dollars for them. Just because it is not new does not mean that it does not work well.

Theres nothing wrong with buying used... Just do your research ahead of time, and know what you are agetting into. I bought my current S/C setup used... and im pretty sure it is FINE. no probs yet

and you think those parts will hold 9psi and put down good numbers? odd.
best of luck.

10k... 20k.. wish it was that much, but what does that matter at this point, even if i spent 1k, i would still have the mentallity of buying a quality part. i'm not trying to beat a dead horse here, you have a valid point.
