Proper newbie wondering about n/a to boost conversion

[Edgeychris]

Hi all,

I'm new here and tbh I haven't got the slightest clue about starlets etc i do kno about car and wok on them whenever I get a chance and had 56 of them lol,

But basically I'm going to look at a 1.3 sr starlet and it comes with the following parts:

Toyo sports manifold and down pipe

Ct9 water cooles turbo

Intercooler and pipe work

Oil and water feeds

Turbo thermostat

Service kit (oil oil filter plugs)

Turbo inlet and throttle body

Lightweight throttle wheel

Turbo bottom end sump and oil filter relocator

What else am I lookin at getting to do a convention?

I'm guess engine loom

Intirior loom?

Ecu, transponders etc

Turbo head or can the n/a 1.3 head be used?

Gearbox and shafts?

Intercooler?

Any help would be great

Thanks

Probably easier to buy a mk2 or mk3 gt instead that needs a little work mate, jumping straight into a turbo conversion without a clue is suicidal. You probably wouldn't have a car on the road for a long time

Yeah I get what your saying bud, I just thought that if I have a turbo engine built up outside the car ready to drop in then wouldn't be so bad lol
