Installing a new turbo tomorrow, need ideas


EZ-E

Recommended Posts

I know that I should either replace or clean the supply line well and make sure it isnt coked with oil and what not, and of course new gaskets as well, but is there anything that I am missing.

 

Like how do you or would you prime the turbo itself, and what other things should I be doing to make sure the install goes without any problems.

 

This is for a 82 280 ZX turbo. any and all knowledge is appreciated.

 

Another thing being this is a T3/T4OE, will I be needing a spacer to make her fit? and what boost would be the same as with the stock T3 at 15#'s?

 

I just want to be safe with this turbo and have a good service life from it.

 

Thanks

Heh I see why you need the spacer lol. Ill take some pics of my new little toy, I cant wait to get it on there, I have a spacer ordered and waiting for it to get here.

 

I was looking on ebay and other sources and found a few ss braided feed lines, in all sizes, can anyone give insight on the proper size for a new line? Would AN fittings work as well or would I need a adapter to the turbo and the pan where it will be coming from?

 

Also yo2001 what is this inline filter you speak of, care to enlighten me, Ive never seen one less what would be used for fuel in that size, show me what your speaking of please.
