Turbo Parts
I'm thinking about buying a custom turbo kit part by part over time. Can anyone make a list of every part needed for a turbo setup? And also what other factors need to be considered like pipe diameter? What needs to be considered when purchasing different parts to ensure they will all work together?

I dunno much about tubos but some of the stuff you need is:
-intercooler
-blow off valve
-turbo itslef
-all the piping
I know theres more but i cant remeber. Its easier to go with the kit itslef or a supercharger. Superchargers have less parts and are usually cheaper.

Ah, VTEC. All of the lag, none of the turbo. It's like waiting for bad sex

probably want a flywheel to go with a clutch.
Definetely a new diff
I would upgrade brakes and suspension if I got a turbo pushing the hp that you want.

the same thing that applies to e-30s applies to all cars.
the e36 just has a better flowing head which means you can get more power
