A few things before the swap..

This is for my '95 Z32 and like the title suggests I'm in the process of looking for the right pieces to the puzzel that is my tt engine. I'm still in need of an intercooler, intake piping, bov, boost controler, turbo timer and oil lines. Prolly gonna go ahead and get myself a new radiator and electric fan as well.
What would you guys suggest I go with as far as brand and price efficiency goes?
Any help is much appriciated.

I found this a while back:

Good read. As for the other stuff not sure. What you do to your car depends totally on what you want to do with your car.

Yeah I read that yesterday actually. Some pretty good info in there.
The other stuff may just have to come with my own personal research and time, as I'm mostly just trying to creat a beefy daily driver. Lol

What's the budget like? No need to discuss specifics but are you fairly unlimited or do you want to keep this pawn shop cheap?

Well I do understand that I am dealing with a turbo system here so I am already expecting like a $1200 price range for all the stuff I need but I really cant go any higher mainly because the swap for my Z is gonna be a pretty penny and a lot of work. I would like to shoot for no more than a grand, to answer your question. I kinda don't see that happening though. :/

Ya sorry to say intercoolers alone are going to eat up most of that.

You mean people don't just throw out brand new bov's and piping?!
Lol yeah I will probably end up spending around 1600 or so.
I've come to terms with this. I just need to know what I wanna go with as far as brand I guess.
