A "Budget" Turbo Build
 
So, I have talked the wife into letting me have our savings for a turbo build. I have aprox~ 6,000 to spend as of right now. More will come later this year. So what I need are the basic build parts. Some help installing, tuning, etc. I have come up with a basic parts list that I am to gather and use tell me what you think, provide feedback where needed and lets get another FI S2K on the streets of Oahu.

P.S Keep in mind this is a budget build, hopefully we can keep it that way, I also realize that the word "budget" and turbo shouldn't be used together but with a little magic and some community help I think it can be had for a fair price. Lets try to keep the feedback positive!

The Build:
------------
Full Race Turbo Kit $4500 (https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=671723)
1000cc RC Injectors $275 (https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=671723)
Emanage Ultimate $450 (https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...#entry15113617)
Emanage AP1 Harness $230
UR Oil Filter Relocation Kit $250
Walbro Fuel Pump $100

So far we are at 5805 not including shipping on all parts and tuning... can anyone think of anything else I can do to save some money?

budget and full race don't go together.

I would consider saving a little extra cash for AEM EMS. You will be glad you did in the end.... just my 2 cents

looks like an old post.

you're missing things.

fuel rail spacers
injector clips
tapped oil pan
afr gauge
manifold studs

these are necessary.

1000cc injectors and no headgasket? with emanage? it will get more expensive after you start driving it... :)

Just get the basic Inline Pro kit, injectors and maybe the 3mm head gasket and the AEM EMS. At least then it can be upgradeable later.

Or just save enough $ to get the full-race kit and EMS.

Buy a used kit in the FS section.
