t3/t4 Turbo

I am thinking of buying a t3/ t4 turbo for my 93' stock Mr2. I have limited knowledge of modding the 3sgte. Is is some thing I can just bolt on or are there other mods that need to be done prior. Should I buy the turbo in a kit, or can it be bought seprete. If so what should a kit vs. the turbo only cost. and last but not least. If I am planning on putting the type turbo on my car how much should is this mod and all required associated mods cost. low and high end. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: t3/t4 Turbo

If you just buy a turbo, that is all you are going to have.

To actually get it on the car, you are going to need:
*adapter plate to bolt turbo onto the exhaust manifold
*downpipe to connect the turbo to the exhaust
*oil lines
*coolant lines (if your turbo is water-cooled)
*fittings for oil and coolant lines
*wastegate
*mounting device/location for wastegate
*plumbing for wastegate dump
*misc nuts, bolts

That being said, it is much easier to buy a "kit" where someone else has done the math and collected the parts.

Re: t3/t4 Turbo

Thanks for the reply. I have been seeing these new t3/t4's sold on ebay for $400 I was just considering it. I think I will just go with a kit. Thanks again for you time.
