Default Turbo

Next year I plan on adding a stage 1 turbo from HP performance , a forged short block, and a TKO 600 .64 overdrive. What else would I need to run this setup that is not included. The kit is supposed to be all inclusive but with the forged shortblock I want to try and run more boost so would I need something extra to run that power. Thanks for all your feedback.

I think you might get cobbled together answers, some people suggesting turbo grind cams, tires, gears, etc.

Call HP Performance and ask them what they recommend, they can give you a good answer.

You will need to upgrade fuel supply, (injectors, mass air, fuel pump ect.). You will want to think about bulking up your rear end to a 31 spline axle, while your in there might as well do gears. Thats a start.

well iono if that is a turbo package, but if its not you need the turbo headers, maf, bov, tubing, and dyno tune. if thats include then your set. but later down you should get some tires or suspension to get that power to the ground,.

Well I guess I should have asked if it was a kit too. Well you'll also need a wastegate, intake tubing, and all sorts of other crap like brackets, oil lines, down pipe.(assuming it wasn't a kit)

I wish I had your money [&:]

That grey mustang, the first one there has half my body kit, looks nasty as hell. Just wish I was making 720 RWHP! [:@]
