Okay... Here's the list...
Ross Forged Pistons and total seal rings set at 9:1--- $590.00
(Stock is 9.6:1, and you don't need to replace the rods or crank because they will hold)
|
If your compression and leak down look good, you don't need either of these. If not so good, you don't need total seal rings. Get Altima KA rings. They work perfect. I've actually heard of some people having issues with the Total seal rings.

Rebuild gasket kit from nissan to to do the rebuild --- $132.00
Custom Build turbo manifold for a T28 ball bearing from a S15 Silvia SR20DET $250 - $350
|
T25 is WAY too small for the KA.

Silvia 370cc injectors from Ebay $100.00
(The KA24DE ECU can utalize these injectors perfectly since the ECU is set to run 345 ccs even though the car only came with 255cc injectors)
|
First the stock injectors are 270cc not 255cc. The ECU cannot utilize the larger injectors with the stock MAF. You will need either flashed ECU, Hacked MAF, or some sort of piggy back ecu, or full on stand-alone.

High pressure fuel pump from ebay $100.00
T28 turbo from an S15 Silvia rebuilt off Ebay $300.00
|
Again.. T25 or T28 both too small for the KA

Stock Sidemount intercooler from an S13 180sx/Silvia will all piping intact including recirculator valve $100 - $250
|
I think there are plenty of front mounts from older cars that you could get. The SR piping will not work for the KA, so that will have to be custom anyway. Starion intercoolers are common. You can get good intercoolers on ebay these days too. Some Volvo's also have good usable intercoolers.

Electronic Boost Controller and Boost Gauge $250 - $500
Misc. Parts and expenses $250.00
Aqua Mist system from Ebay $400.00
|
Aqua mist is absolutly not necessary on a budget system. Neither is the intercooler for that matter, but if you've got 3000 to work with..

|
This comes to a grand total of $2972.00 that's less than your $3000.00 budget and since you will be using total seal rings and an Aqua Mist system you will be able to boost around 16 to 17psi safely.
|
The engine stock can handle around 15psi on a T3/T4.. 16-17 psi on a t25 or a t28 and your just blowing hot air with a turbo out of it's efficency range and making no where near the HP #'s your claiming.
If you want some better info, do a search on "Junkyard turbo" or "Budget turbo" Lots of good cheap turbo ideas.
