Newb in Montreal says Thank You
 
I just finished reading the "DIY FaQ - ALL your answers in one big post" thread.

I had no clue how much was involved in setting up a turbo-charged car.

I've ordered Corky's book. Thank you.

Sixteen things I never thought of:

1. Ignition Control
2. Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
3. Fuel injectors
4. High pressure fuel pump
5. O2 Signal Modifier (O2 Clamp)
6. Boost control
7. Intercooling
8. Blow off/air bypass valves
9. Clutch
10. Exhaust system
11. Heat shielding
12. Oil Supply and Return
13. Rear End
14. Water Lines
15. Wideband O2
16. Full ECU

John, welcome! Great that you read it, but now make sure to know that if you do decide to turbo your car and you go with #16, you won't need to worry about #2, #4 and #5. :)

That's good to know. Right now, I think I'm going to start by building a Megasquirt this winter and using it on the stock 1.6.
