I am going to be ordering a turbo kit for my car within a month or two and am just wondering what on the car needs to be upgraded to safely run at about450rwhp(ie. fuel pump, injectors, MAF, etc.)


thanks guys

You should buy a complete kit with the proper MAF, injectors, plugs and pump. Turbonetics makes a great one.

I don't think there is such thing as safe and forced induction. More power almost always equates to more broken parts.

okay, so how about properly run a turbo kit?

at 450 you are right on the fence for needing a gt500 fuel pump. I would avoid a BAP at those levels. Personally I feel like its putting a bandaid over a potential issue

Thank you very much for the info, as I have researched and found that the BAP is the way that most people go. I really don't like the BAP for the same reason. Is the GT500 pump a direct replacement or does it require some cutting and splicing to put in. Also, could you give me an idea on what size of injectors I will need for this aplication?

RAT281

38 lb/hr should do the job

No cutting or splicing with the dual gt500 pump. should be around a 4 hour job. What turbo are you going with? You may want to consider a fuel pressure guage as well

I am going tobe going with the ON3 kit with the MP T70 turbo. Do I need dual GT 500 fuel pumps or just one and does this require the wiring upgrade. ALso, will I need to upgrade my MAF for this kit?

thanks

def need to upgrade MAF. gt500 fuel system is a dual fuel pump. You may be fine with a BAP, but try to think long term. If you are going to up the boost later down the road just go with the best fuel system you can.
