    M10 turbo on a budget

    Anybody have a complete list of items needed to turbo an 1.8l m10 ?

    What turbo would be a good choice to make about 200whp and have good midrange torque ? I am thinking I want to try this before doing a swap if it can be done for under 2k. I figure the most expensive item is the 666fab exhaust manifold and then turbo itself, that's half of the budget already. So another 1k for all the fittings, small IC and piping and MS ecu ? Or am I way off base ?

    I would budget a little more than that if you want a reliable turbo setup.

    -3 oil feed and appropriate fittings
    -10 oil return and fittings
    turbo
    wastegate
    exhaust piping/u bends
    DP flange
    Muffler
    megasquirt
    MS harness
    TPS, AIT, CT sensors
    injectors
    charge pipe
    BOV
    FMIC
    couplers
    t-bolt clamps
    gauges
    wideband
    catch can
    cone filter
    and any other various things I forgot..

    It doesn't seem like a lot at first thought, but it really adds up really quickly. I don't even know how much I have spend on my setup...

      ^^ you can say that again. I think im about half way there. The best tip I have is search hard for good deals to cut your costs.

        A friend of mine locally is almost done getting all the parts needed to turbo his 2.0l m10 in his restored 2002, so I now see how much it takes.... I am going m50 +s50 upgrades route instead as I have to deal with smog and he doesn't.
