What do I need to put my turbocharger in my Eclipse GS?

Answer by  Expert19283 (173)

You will need to purchase an entire kit to supplement the turbocharger. If you have just the turbo, you will need to purchase: updated fuel system/injectors, new headers, Blow-Off Valve, new intake tubing, misc wires and accessories, new gaskets along with various other components from a standardized kit.

Just buy a complete kit. It should have the turbo housing, a manifold, intake and exhaust tubing, an inter-cooler, blow-off valve, boost controller, and all the lines.

You will need to make sure all the tolerances fit. You must also have the spacer plate set to the exact thickness or it will compromise the heads and create a fiery breakdown. You may also need to tap new bolt holes to fit it in place.

Upgrading your non-turbocharged engine is like overhauling the whole engine. The components inside the engine block needs also to be replaced to match the capacity of your turbocharger. This will optimize performance.
