    Pushing on with TB42E turbo upgrade

    So, as per the title I've decided to push on with a mild turbo setup on the Maverick.

    Straight petrol, no messing about.

    My shopping list so far is:

    Used GT35 off an XR6 turbo(good condition).
    440-500cc injectors, on modded standard fuel rail.
    Nistune board and dyno time.
    Intercooler(either used or ebay special)
    Various piping, silicone bends and custom exhaust(welded by me, so... badly).
    Boost controller and gauge.
    EGT sensor and gauge.
    Stronger fuel pump.

    Hours and hours of skinned knuckles and questioning why the hell I'm doing it

    Engineering so the plod don't canary my ass.

    just aiming for 7-10psi max.

    I've already got:

    a turbo manifold

    twin pot brakes to upgrade mine to help with engineering

    Two engines.


    With such a mild setup, should I need to swap out the airbox?
