hey,
I'm looking for a little more oumph from my e16i without a lot of green involved. By the way this project is going to be a little further down the road (hehe) first I have pretty much every bushing to replace on my suspension (plus strut mounts, then replace the front oil seal, and work out a couple quirks. But anyway....I'm considering a junkyard turbo setup. I have a welder and a friend who can help me with fabricating and basic machining, so doing the mechanical side of such a project i know i can handle. But the electrical side is a little different, what kind of mods will i need to take care of for the computer and other things (i'm assuming i'm going to need a bigger injector/throttle body) If i'm running lower boost can i avoid a lot of it? This seems like a cool little project to work on and i do realize it's a lot more complicated in reality then it is in my head
but humer me anyway. Oh and if you guys have any other turbo resources that you think might be helpfull let me know.
Thanks!
