Tech - Twin Turbo Conversion Tips + Guide Part 2

Here's a list of parts you'll need. The parts below in the table are new parts I got from Mitsubishi, and they're mainly the oil and cooland lines, and all the bolts and gaskets you need for that and for the exhaust.

Turbos from a VR-4, either the TD04 9b's or TD04 13g's, with wastegate actuators
Exhaust manifolds and the manifold gaskets from a VR-4
Oil housing from a VR-4
Oil feed and oil return lines for the turbos, and all the eyebolts and gaskets
"Joint" on the back of the engine block for the rear oil feed line
Modified non-turbo oil pan to accept oil return lines
Water housing from a VR-4
Water feed and water return lines for the turbos, and all the eyebolts, washers, and gaskets
o2 housings and pre-cats from a VR-4
Downpipe from a VR-4 (remember that if you have Gen 1 pre-cats, you need a Gen 1 downpipe, etc)
Fuel injectors from a VR-4. The stock 360cc injectors are just fine.
Fuel pump from a VR-4.

Electronics/Gauges you'll need

S-AFC, S-AFR, or some other way to control the fuel.
Boost gauge
Air/Fuel ratio gauge
Exhaust Gas Temperature gauge (two is better)
Pocketlogger - very useful for monitoring everything, especially knock

Optional things, or things other might tell you that you need

ECU from a VR-4
Engine wiring harness from a VR-4
Injector resistor pack from a VR-4
Boost controller
