turbo on a sonoma gt

[wc623]

what all do i need to put a stock syclone turbo on my sonoma gt?

this has been discussed probably a hundred times on here.....

if you wanna make it work... lots of money.

if you wanna just put it on ur truck (zip tied to the exhaust or something) couple hundred for the turbo, and a few bucks for some sort of fastener.

seriously. you need a ton of stuff. exhaust manifolds, lower intake, upper intake (with all accessories like tps, mat, map, etc), intercooler of some sort, ecu, wire harness, turbo, downpipe, oil lines, coolant lines, turbo, etc, etc, etc.

then you have the problem of your motor. its not built to stand up to much... you would probably only be able to run like 5psi or something. to do more, tear the motor out, lower the compression, and put strong parts in it.

money is what you need. parts are easy to get.

so there is my $.01999 worth.

thanks for the help i think ill just by a supercharger.

Good luck finding one. Vortech (different from Vortec) used to make a V1 Supercharger, for the L35, but that was discontinued. I had one once. Gone now. But I am going V8 now, so screw a Supercharger.

Dont you think it would be easier to sell the gt and buy a syclone.

got a syclone rebuilding the motor as we speak.

It's easy.. Take the Radiator cap off the GT
move the GT
Drive a Syclone up and then put the radiator cap on it.
Viloa you have a syclone motor.
