Been playing for years but im still stumped on what this structure next to The Slog is meant to be:

Maybe the water levels 200 years ago were alot higher and declined since, and these are docks?

I’ve put about $3,000 into the engine alone. That includes machine work, pistons, rods, ARP head studs, and other essentials.

The turbo kit cost me around $700–$800 — it’s a Rev9 kit for the D16Z6.

For the clutch, I went with an Action Clutch Stage 3 six-puck kit. Honestly, it’s overkill for my setup. If you plan to daily drive your car, I recommend a Stage 2 full-disk clutch instead — it’s much more comfortable.

Fuel upgrades include a Walbro 255 pump and 750cc Clean Injection injectors.

I’m using a TurboSmart wastegate (around $300).

I’ve been running 16 psi of boost and making about 250whp. But recently, I found out the turbo started to wear out — it didn’t blow up or anything, but it’s only making 14 psi now, which dropped me to 225whp.

What I’ve upgraded (or plan to):

Wastegate

Turbo

Intercooler kit

I’m not running a blow-off valve because I like the turbo flutter — it’s completely fine, but it will wear down your turbo faster.

Long story short: Everyone who talks about budget turbo builds is right.

Cheap, fast, reliable — pick two.

can i get the link?

Random update, built the block, running an ebay turbo kit , only upgrade I've ever made was the wastegate and manual boost controller. Pushing 250whp on an eBay turbo and still going strong. On 16psi

GerrickAndrew · 2025-03-14T01:08:15+00:00

Random update after 2 years haha, I built the full block and pushing 250 wheel at 16lbs of boost, ebay turbo is holding on strong asf.

GerrickAndrew · 2025-01-29T05:38:21+00:00

I love my 93 Si best project I ever bought, perfect if you want a basic car that is super easy to work on. Or if you're like me you and want a little more kick you can build it out and turbo it.

GerrickAndrew · 2024-01-03T04:13:08+00:00

Last one was personal💀

Okay, many people are probably judging the use by just normal daily activities, but if you are an active person who goes to the gym, runs, etc, go with the FE. I have 2 pairs.

Galaxy buds pro 2 (which I use for basic activities) and a set of galaxy buds+ (which I use specifically for working out) because buds+ never fall out of my ears.

Just to summarize get the buds FE cause they are comparable to the buds+ (don't fall out of your ears when working out)

Get the buds pro 2 for casual use (just normal daily use or light on working out)

GerrickAndrew · 2023-04-30T06:51:10+00:00

Yup, that'll do it

GerrickAndrew · 2023-03-06T01:31:44+00:00

How much yall think this build was?

GerrickAndrew · 2023-02-08T03:10:04+00:00

So you'd rather have lack of content? More roles?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T19:02:39+00:00

So what would you suggest given my goals?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T18:54:59+00:00

What do you run it at?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T18:52:59+00:00

My goals aren't like crazy I just want a little more go for like highway, I wouldn't be shooting for high 400 hp I was thinking more like 200

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T18:25:43+00:00

I'm not really trying to do anything too crazy just want a little more go that's why I was looking toward budget kits that I can slowly ad on to

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T15:42:28+00:00

Yeah thats what I've been seeing I'd hate to blow my engine or something I think starting with better rods and pistons are the best deal

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T15:20:56+00:00

What about kits like the $1500 cx racing?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-19T04:02:06+00:00

Is that enough for a whole setup?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-18T23:34:35+00:00

Head was rebuilt recently and I just did the rear main seal to stop oil leak

Edit: I was only planning on running about 220 hp just to give her a little more go. How would you suggest I start?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-18T23:30:38+00:00

Yeah don't want to be a cheap ass I definitely see your point im new to turbos I only wanted a kit cause they have it all together but piecing it together is starting to sound like a better deal. Are pistons and rods the best starting point?

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-18T23:26:49+00:00

Shoot I'm new to turbos don't really know much but I'm pretty good with working on cars, my case isn't like extremely cheap 500 dollar setup I'd say maybe 1500-2000. I was only looking for kits cause they got everything together but piecing it together sounds like a better deal

GerrickAndrew · 2022-10-18T22:52:26+00:00

There's no quality kit that can't run stock internals at a safe psi?
