    Injectors or Radiator?

    hey guys so my turbo kit arrived safely through customs and i didnt have to pay import duty or any taxes so i was quite happy. anyways so far i have sitting in my room:

    greddy turbo kit + emanage
    fmic+piping
    f1 racing stage 2 clutch.

    i want to get them all installed at the same time, but i still need: bigger injectors, a half-size radiator, and eventually i want a 3" exhaust. my question is: would it be better to get a radiator or injectors first? i want to run around 5psi on the TD04 to begin with, then when i get the 3inch exhaust and radiator/injectors (depending on which one i can leave til later) i want to get a re-tune to about 9psi or so. can anyone give me some advice with my radiator/injector dilemma? cheers

    Save up a bit longer and get Injectors / Exhaust together, then tune. Do it once. You'll save in the long run.

    Radiator you can get later if you just going to be running on the street.

    soudns similar what im going to do man.

    i think you should get injectors and exhaust done together and retuned at a higher level.

    but for the meantime i would just run the stock kit at the stock boost setting and tune on the emanage untill you collect all the parts, retunes cost money, so slap it all together when you are happy.

    btw how did you get away with customs? 'gift'??

    thanks for the advice guys. this is good because it means i can bolt the turbo on sooner. i dunno how i got away with customs, it only took like 10 days from me paying for it until it was at my door as well. i was really impressed. and excited

    u will probable need a fuel pump to....

    walbro 255lph, u can get them fairly cheap.

    but yeah as dean said save up and do it all at once. radiator isnt a big thing, u can do it down the track and it wont affect the tune of the car

    ur going to need a boost controller to.... other wise once again u will want to boost it up then u will need to get it retuned to handle more psi.

    save up for everythin at once so u feel a mad difference in performance,
    id get the exhaust first, run it on stock tune because it will make a huge difference, then get injectors n fuel pump + tune then radiator !!!!!

    upgrade your brakes if u can.
