Okay I've almost got all the parts for my Turbo conversion. I need a BOV. Not looking to spend more than $100 on one. Any recommendations?



Doing a S4 > Turbo bolt on.



Here's what I have so far:

S4 Turbo & Manifold

Turbo Intake Upper & Lower

93' RX7 Intercooler (which I will mount in the front)



Still need to get:

Gaskets

13BT front cover (for the Oil return)

CorkSport Downpipe

you got the oil return but you need to get the oil to the turbo. also lines for the coolant since the turbo has a wet cartridge.



I would recommend a TII ic than a fd ic.



Are you using the na engine? Since you got ever thing to fit already, it would be much easier to just get a TII engine and drop it in.

I do plan to get a JSPEC Motor and go through it, but I'd like to attempt this turbo conversion first.



The oil feed for the Turbo will come from the same place it does on the S4 Turbo motor. The front rotor housing far side. I will drill and easy out the plug that is in it. The other option would be off the oil pressure sending unit with a tee.



For the coolant lines I'll be routing them to the coolant lines that used to go through the throttle body. I have 550cc injectors and a Haltech with a 2 bar map sensor that will run it.



So it shouldn't be a problem to tune.



This is not an everyday driver, in fact I put less than 100 miles on it this summer. I'm looking to drag race it and get into the 11's
