I think you also need a xr6t plenum ? and instead of the wiring looms and stuff you can opt for a electronic boost controller I think. not sure if the solenoid is needed.

and a boost guage!

the injectors on all the 6's typhoon/xr6t and na 4L are all the same, so if you run a stock map you can use your injectors, but if you tune it to run on 95 or 98 you will need to change injectors as they won't handle it. phooned explained what I was trying to but better lol.

I got a quote from autobarn for a 2bar map sensor for a bf turbo at $139 and I got quoted 165 from repco.. im sure you can find them cheaper

thanks phooned.

I dont understand using new heater pipes n hoses, are there any pics? cause im doing the same conversion but I seem to be getting more parts then required.

couldnt you just run a bleed valve to control the boost without opting for looms and solenoids?

lsd will come later, lol ive got print outs of the engine exploded view with all the part numbers so now need to sit down and work out what I need to order and what I can use on current vehicle will try to scan pages if my scanner works but im still unsure how the water lines go and where does the turbo get the oil from and where do I connect up my oil feed line from the engine I have a earls aftermarket one

pics would help

you either need to get a turbo sump or drill a whole into your sump for the oil that drains out of the turbo, where it gets its oil from im not exactly sure, I was going to use an after market oil cooler on mine where I think my mate was going to split into 2, on for the turbo line and one for the engine line.. I could be completely wrong but I think that's how it works :S

yeah im unsure too I know its under the inlet manifold in the block I think? I knew about drilling and tapping the sump. really excited about ripping my falcon apart and start the conversion. any pictures of oil/water lines routes or ideas where to go would be great.
