^typical noob advice.

OP, +1 for you for keeping the d series. i personally would build up the engine first and foremost. like cam (not cams lol), cam gear, forged 4032 alloy pistons, rods, then titanium retainers, forged valves..ugh i could go on and on. but the first thing you should ask yourself is 'what is my power goal?' then some good advice can start coming. as far as headers for a turbo set up, id go with full race t3 mani (ram horn). youd want the wastegate to be positioned in the center so that way the exhaust gases from all cylinders go through it. (experts chime in if im wrong here in any way)

Yes do a bit more research. I only say this because you can't use a header for a turbo set up. Are you looking to do a cheap pieced together build?

I heard edlebrock makes a cheap complete turbo kit for D-series

thanks! im not really sure on what kind of power i want to get out of this. as of right now i just want to do slight mods. not really looking to do a whole lot of internals. just want something nice, safe, clean, and quicker. was thinking of running 8-10psi nothing too major.
yes i love the SingleCammerSlammer lol

To a typical noob question. s**t has been done TO DEATH, literally 3 mins of research and you can find dozens of cheap d series builds.

To the OP

cast mani from go-autoworks
mitsubishi adapter cause that mani is T3/T4
14b, or go for a 16g if you want to spend the money
dsm 450s
used intercooler+piping or ebay

In a best case scenario thats around $400-500 if you roll with just the 14b. Plus the tune, which if you have a chipped ecu I would just find a good tuner and have him burn you a chip cause more than likely they have tuned one of these setups already. This isnt including a pump or BOV or an extra pan and whatever but you can get the idea.
