You could always put RS200 ears on it... would probably work quite well.
Isnt that where the 200 intercooler sat anyway?

upgrading the clutch isnt neccesary if your standard one is in good nick. mine didnt start slipping til over 200kw atw. and that was after loads of abuse. theyll laugh at 150kw atw.

That was the whole idea of that setup, but he just can't get it runing properly and wants a SW20 now...

As it is, the cooler works quite well, but it could definatly be improved on.

yeah the stock one is worn from the owner in Japan I believe lol..

so the mentioned parts would be sufficient to start up the turbo base?

beacause I could get a 4agte manifold for 330$ off trademe right now lol.. (still have to ask if he will send to Brisbane)

turbo, manifold, exhaust, fmic and clutch..

oil feed, sump with return, piping, a sc14 will be alot cheaper and easier.

Turbo away then.
You'll need a N/A inlet manifold to suit as well.
