Hi everyone, so my younger brother just bought a super charger for his cressida and ofcourse that made me wonder is he gonna beat my stingray. So I have a couple of brand new Garrett's 35 sitting on a closet I also have intercooler waste gates blow off oil lines however I've never installed a turbo on a v8 carbureted engine I dont want to blow up the engine on the first dyno pull, besides fabricating headers and pipes and getting a top hat what else do I need. I have a edelbrock intake plenum with matching 650 cfm carb can I modify it what's the most boost I can add I'm still building the engine so not sure how much compression I'll get before the turbo but I think is somewhere between 8.5 and 9.1 it has a scat rotating assembly with wiseco pistons, I'm still in the process of choosing cam and heads please any help on what needs to be done is greatly appreciated.

 

Never mind I'm getting a holley self tuning efi after all I invested on this build why risk it. Cheers!
