95 f150 turbocharging.

Anyone know were I can get a turbo manifold for the 300 or how I could make one. Right now I have the two stock manifolds, and I just want one big one to use with a single turbo. Im thinking of going with a holset hx35. And will the stock computer and injectors hold up to boost? I realize I'll have to do a rebuild, and go with better pistons and rings, but what all do I need to do to achive a good budget turbo build for some good acceleration, and still hang on to my 17 mpg. Any input would be much appreciated.

the best bet is to make the manifolds you have work. weld up a Y pipe.

the stock ECM dosn't know what to do when it sees boost, and stock injectors are only good to 200hp if that. your going to need after maket stuff here.

your going to have to set some more deffinate goals if you want good advice.

I just need to know the basics of what I'll need for the build. Best place to drill for turbo oil line, best computer to use (megasquirt ect.) What size injectors to go with, how many lph does my fuel pump need to be, and were should I have my fuel regulator set to. Im looking for around 300 horses. ANd I plan on having the head ported and polished. But Im on a budget, so I need the cheapest possible parts. I dont have the money for garret turbo's and AEM standalone modules. I just need what will work for the best price.

And how would I go about welding up a y pipe with a flange?? Any pictures of how its done? Thanks.

take a long read with this thread, its not as simple as an aftermarket computer, injectors, and slapping on a turbo.
