I'm putting a garrett T3 turbo on my 1999 Z24. Here's what I have so far:
T3 turbo (set at 7.5 psi)
Piping
Intercooler
Manifold
Oil feed and return lines
Boost Gauge
320cc injectors
I would like input on what else I need for my setup
I am getting a custom exhaust bent but wasn't sure if I need to order downpipe flange from someone or if the shop can make that too...
Also what type of fuel accessories do i need and where is the best place to get them or will the injectors handle it...
I also heard about tricking the MAP sensor with resistor, will I need to do that too?
Thanks
well idn how much help i can be but i just finished my 99 Z24 turbo..some input first, im untuned on 330cc injectors with a Jet AFPR so im ideling fine. i boost around 5 psi max at about 1/2 throttle and that baby goes..as far as parts heres my list idn if its every single little part because i had so much little stuff and had a shop help me on it and i only payed 1/4 of what they charge since i was there with them

You are what you Drive!
You are going to need something to control your fuel now... I run the greddy e-manage in my car to make up for fuel and it works good. Some like it, some like apexi SAFC instead... either way you gotta do something about it.
Depends on what you do about the map sensor. Some people put a check valve on it I have seen, I have the emanage running through it with an additional pressure sensor so when the stock map sensor sees boost it doesnt freak out because the e-manage tells it not too as long as that 330ohm resistor is in place. I'm still learning so I'm just saying what I know... the turbo veterans here can tell you better.
E-manage or Megasquirt are good tuning systems to use for boost. Bob you got a pretty good idea going. I've been wondering if a 2-bar MAP could be rigged up to work or if you could use like a VDC off an LT1...
I was a retard, and now I'm permanently banned.
Wheres a good place to order a DP off of the internet, and who makes good FPRs,
Thanks
