Just got my turbo today!!!

My friend finally got ahold of the Conquest/Starion turbo for me. This means winter project for sure. Now i just have to figure out what all i am going to need. and would i be better off using my old exhaust manifold to make a custom turbo manifold? my uncle works in a machine shop, so maybe ill have him make an adapter plate for it...im excited.

Re: Just got my turbo today!!!

what motor do you have. t25 you will have fun with because it spool up fast. i had a t25 off a buick sky hawk. very responsive and peppy but power flatten out at top end so i went with a to4h 15g which is not as responsive but pulls good mid and top end now.
