Default K04 turbo upgrade peice by peice...

So this post is more to reaffirm what I have read/considered/etc so I'd like your thoughts.

Buy the MTM k04 equivalent kit peice by peice.

I Already have GIAC chip/exhaust/high-flow cat

Going to get MTM down pipe, then turbo, then injectors and MTM software.

I know the k04 will run, albeit slower, with giac software just fine until I upgrade fuel and ECU.

I plan on keeping stock clutch until I rip it apart as I don't really drag it much, so I think it'll hold up for at least a month When it dies I'll get a stoptech clutch w/ flywheel.

Brakes, OEM bbk from ecs to clear my Axis NE-O rims. (Anyone ever use 10mm spacers on 19s [front and rear] w/o rubbing? If so, then I can go for a manly BBK.)

Finally, twin intercooler when I find the money and a timing belt change. I'm at 89k hwy miles so I'm due in the next 6mo at my current driving rate.

Of course if someone is selling a complete like-new t28 kit w/ software for less than $2000, that will put a kink into things.

Great plan. Another 2 people are doing it as we speak.

Default When the belt breaks you can get some higher flow cylinder heads.

Anthony at Greedspeed has the part numbers for the ones with better flow.
