Garret blow-off valve p/n 714341-0002
tC injectores (550cc?)
DC headers?

I have read that most turbo kits come with new headers. Should I use DC headers, some other perfomance header, or just stick with stock(i doubt it lol)?. I feel like i'm missing something so please let me know

dont know about headers w/ a turbo? should you be turboing your car?!

rkvin21 · 01-06-2009, 05:21 PM

well t/c will probably be the last thing I do to my car but ya. I want to accelerate as fast as possible till I have to let off the gas for the speed limit. I'm starting with the small stuff then working my way up but I need to know my end result so I can choose my parts wisely.

Also what kind of headers would be a good choice to use with a t/c if any?

oh boy

rkvin21 · 01-06-2009, 09:05 PM

too small? lol. well ironically they give diameter and A/R specifics but I don't know how to read those yet. they list displacement and Hp. are these numbers after it is installed or before?

Is anybody going to actually answer my question on headers or do I have to say intake manifold? lol

the header, or exhaust manifold on a turbo car is often custom and thus replaces the normal header.

my earlier comment was based on the fact that you started buying stuff but dont really seem to know how a turbo works.

and not to get into it, but a turbo sits on the exhaust manifold, the exhaust gas spins the turbo which is connected to the intake air on the other side compressing it to a given compression (psi).

and i dont want to be a dink, but maybe you ought to check out howitworks.com or wikipedia or google some turbo info before carrying on. im not sure you have an accurate scope of how big of a project doing a custom turbo setup is...

What do you mean? Him doing a rolling start? or me being behind by a car length? Also I don't think he knows how to fully use his car yet. I could be wrong. He has been driving a manual longer than I have (5 years vs 6 months) and he still has hard shifts.

2008 mustang GT 0-60.. 5.2 seconds..

me on 10lbs of boost (just about all the stock rods will handle) 6 seconds...

so be prepared to build yourself a complete engine.. rods, pistons, valvtrain, get that head looked at, might as well Balance the rotating parts..

remember my $8000 budget?

make it $10000

or you could buy a Fbody mustang for $4000, put about $2000 in it and run 10's...

wait i mean... 0-60 in mid 4second range

rkvin21 · 01-07-2009, 05:08 PM

well I don't like fords lol. plus why would I want the same thing as him even though it looks different. I want to be different! Also I doubt he can get 5.2 sec like it can. Again like I mentioned all these mods will be less than the cost of the new 2010 Camaro that I want with a trade in. I like this car and want to keep it. I want to get the most out of this car as I can safely. I'm still learning. I'm a computer geek that wants to work on his car go figure lol.

rkvin21 · 01-07-2009, 06:29 PM

For light weight wheels is 13-15lbs good? Also would it be beneficial to have all slicks or just slicks in the front? Is 205/50-15 good for tire size? is 225/50-15 to big? Thanx

no reason to put slicks on a ground pounding 95whp lol (at best)

just give up on making your yaris a race car..

oh and for a 15X7 don't settle for anything heavier than 13 lbs..

Use 14 wheels ( 185-55 r-14 will shave almost a sec off your 0-60 RIGHT NOW. oR if you want stockers got to 40 series 15's. Cheapest go fast mod other than cutting a big slot in the bottom of the stock airbox. The shorter "effective" final drive ratio allow the motor to spin up faster and puts less strain on timing advance - so engine will "supertune" itself in a week or so. Not everyones a PRO drag racer, so If you catch someone sleeping, or, If they're sloppy drivers, you can smoke 'em. A NORMAL person driving a pony car would get to sixty in maybe 7 secs on a stick car. I've drive with a lot of people and only maybe 2-5 % can really drive. The bro

Anyways, just a side question. What is the average cost of a Mustang GT '09 in the states now?
