I am going to be reloading my comp so I need to put this info here. Plus I figure it will help out some other 4 cyl guys. I will just compile a list of things I think I need to run 6 psi on stock internals.
1: turbo w/ internal wastegate.
2: piping
3: blow-off-valve
4:FMU .....found here: http://www.cartech.net/fmu2020.htm
5: helper pump: http://www.powerandperformancenews.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=82020&Category_Code=FUELPUMP&Store_Code=ZX


Now my questions are:
1: Is a 95 mitsubishi eclipse gst/gsx turbo water cooled or air intercooled?
2: Does my list sound like everything I need?

Import, the turbo itself is oil cooled. A pressure line is plumbed to the turbo and then a drain to get oil back in the pan. Most intercooler's are air to air. The Buick V-6's even had a fan attached to the front of the crankshaft to draw air through the intercooler.

Easiest wold probably be one off a 2.3 Mustang or T-Bird although a 1.8 Sunbird would do the trick. Import turbo's are more popular though.

hey if you wanted to be a true "importmaster" you could run two EVEN UP TO FOUR TURBOS!!!!!!!!!!!! j/k yea 2.3 mustang wouldn't be a bad turbo to use (i think t3) would spool up pretty quick.

How much do t-3s run used? I can get them out of a junkyard it I know what car they are from. I thought of the mitsu. cause there are alot around.

If I blow the hell out of this engine then I am gonna buy another 2200sfi and TT it!
Forged internals, everything!
