Shanghai-S Turbo System
I recently put a deposit for a Shanghai-S Turbo System, im now waiting for it to get delivered. I replaced fuel filter, plugs, wires, the car is up to date on all the maintenance. Is there anything else i need to change the care has 146k on it? I have new ACT clutch as well i'm waiting to see if the stock clutch will go before i replace i'm guessing will be soon. Does anyone run open wastegate dump?

You probably won't see it until mid august and then it will be missing pieces.:facepalm:
What kind of fuel management you got? Oh, and start running the good gas now. |
open waste dump
I do, but it's loud and the fumes find their way to the cab. Check your compression and leak down while your waiting. Thats a lot of miles.

Mid August?! He told me 2-4 weeks

I'd suggest buying megasquirt or AEM and tune it on a stockish car before turbo. Probably one of the best things you can do.

Honestly if the motor runs good, I wouldn't worry about the 146k miles on it.
Otoh if you want that motor to last very long, get MS. |
The motor runs strong has good compression across the board, and consumes no oil. I think it should be fine, i have a ms1 for em, i only plan to run 8 psi for now haha. I was thinking of fabing a ebay i/c set up in the mean time....

Water pump and timing belt. Unless you're sure that was done already

It took them a little while, but the wait was worth it. They were more than helpful when I failed to mention i had a 99 block. They gave me new parts at no charge for my mistake.

It was easier since i was local too.

I hope so, i'm still waiting for some parts (actuator and a bracket) and I ordered in early may. I was able to get everything else done, now i'm just waiting to slap on that actuator and make some hp. So for now, my baby sits......

-F The OP orders his system the end of June and you suggest the middle of August. Based on your 4 week lead time? And non standard parts? Call me crazy, but I just don't see the connection here. Stephanie |

I don't know if a fuel filter is a part of that list. But if not, you might want to do it too. :)
