Default Need help with a kit

Greetings to all.

I have an idea of buying a turbo kit in BEGI.
Specifically it BEGI-S Turbo System 1.6L 1999-2005 UK BEGi

-What are the options to be paramount to kit? you can answer with yes or no
Intercooler Size:?
Fueling Option:?
Heat Shield:?
Add Bypass Valve:?
Add Oil Pan Drill and Tap:?
Add Cool Line Stainless Braid:?
Add Gases Separated Downpipe:?
Ceramic Coating-Turbine Housing:?
Ceramic Coating Manifold-:?
Add Stainless Oil Drain Line:?
What are the options that I can leave to rate?

If I choose the GT2560 how HP can I have?

Small matter most!
Should it creates the tip return oil to the turbo (in the housing) or are there already?

Thank you in advance for answers.

Paramount??? Absolutely necessary...

Intercooler Size: No
Fueling Option: BEGI Fuel system is VERY limited to 5-6 psi. I would suggest using the Xede or EMU.
Heat Shield: Not a necessity at low boost levels. If you go 8 psi or higher, I would recommend one.
Add Bypass Valve: Not a necessity. Just gets rid of the turbo fluttering noise.
Add Oil Pan Drill and Tap:Necessary! Need it to drill a hole and tap into the oil pan.
Add Cool Line Stainless Braid: Necessary if you do not want to be changing your oil and coolant lines at the turbo every year. Personally, I am all for stainless. Put it in and forget it.
Add Gases Separated Downpipe:Not necessary. Will help with turbo spool up.
Ceramic Coating-Turbine Housing:Not necessary. Will do a little for heat insulation. Mainly so it looks nicer, longer.
Ceramic Coating Manifold:Same as above.
Add Stainless Oil Drain Line: Not necessary. Will have to be changed every so often as it is rubber.


If I choose the GT2560 how HP can I have?
about 5-10 whp more than the GT2554 at 5-6 psi. If you every upgraded, in the future, the power potential is just that much more per psi of boost your run.

Should it creates the tip return oil to the turbo (in the housing) or are there already?
If I am understanding correctly, you want to know if the holes for the oil inlet and outlet are in the center housing already? These bungs are already there. The kit includes the fittings to use there for either stainless or rubber lines.
Hope that helps!
