Really thinking about doing a turbo on my 02 . I can't really find a lot of info on the fuel mods except a high flow pump. Anyone have info on anything else like injectors ,tuning etc.... I read an article where the owner of STS turbos had one on his Tacoma but all it said Is he had STS walbro fuel system.

Do a search for turbo rock lobster's build. He's probably the most well known and documented turbo guy here, if it's not in his build thread, he's pretty active and you can message him directly, I'm sure he'd be happy to help.

Consider however, for about the same cost you could super charge using the oem TRD kit without fuel mods, and alternatively add the URD 7th injector and injector ecu.

Without extensive knowledge on turbo systems, which no offence it sounds like you don't have, (I don't have a wholw lot of experience either) the supercharger is probably the easiest and most reliable bolt on power.
 
Superchargers aren't the easiest to find but a turbo is a completely different animal. Don't expect to just slap it on and be good to go.
 
I think that inexpensive supercharger finds will be few and far between until the hype from being discontinued wears off. Seems like the prices on them have jumped up significantly over the past 2 months.
 
You need bigger injectors. Larger fuel pump. Something to tune with and a wbo2.

If you run e85 it would be safest and make tons of power. You would need a walbro 450lph pump and at least 1000cc injectors. Also aftermarket fuel pressure regulator to keep the pump in check. The aem FIC fuel/timing controller would work great to tune it all.

If running gas you would need to watch detonation (knock) and could run 255lph pump and 650cc injectors.
 
Thanks for replies guys. I know it's not gonna be easy. But jus looking run like 6lbs of boost. If I could find a super charger I would prob go that route. But the more I research the turbo the more I like it. JayRolla any idea where to get injectors?

Aren't you forgetting an Intercooler and some other things?
 
Yeah I know it needs inter cooler also. From what I'm reading a high flow pump, bigger injectors and some kind of management is gonna be needed.

AEM FIC is what you want, Dylan (rocklobster build) just tossed that URD garbage in favor of my FIC write up. As others have said before you start contact him.

Except for the URD part right? :)
