Pistons may be a difficult purchase but the item below has most of the stuff you need. No one in the UK has turbo'd a V6 to my knowledge. Apparently people in the states use conrods from a 2.0 16v V-Tec (HRV's I think) as they are stronger.

Management unit would be something like a Megasquirt (full standalone) or Apexi NEO2 FR (which can take a map sensor)

You might need a couple of other bits but this should be about all you need.

-Godspeed TYPE-L INTERCOOLER (20X9X2.75" CORE SIZE) overall length 28"

-t3/t4 stage 3 turbo

- blow off valve

-fuel regulator

- wastegate

-oil return line with fitting

-universal 2.5" aluminum intercooler piping with silicone & t clamps

-5 bolt stainless downpipe

www.importperformanceparts.net you can order all that you need, including h beam conrods, forged low compression wiseco pistons, turbo, injectors, fpr, ems and all the other bits you need.
The only exception would be the exhaust manifold, but jeroentje has that one for you.
Make sure you get new beatings as well which are one size bigger. Recut your cranckshaft for best results. Do get a new lightweight flywheel and clutch and a new oilpump. Uprated timingbelt is a plus too. All of this is a lot of money!

i think someone has probably turb0'ed a v6, just not in a 323f, see a few turb0 probes on rocs forum thingy, never checked their location though

similar engine, maybe a good idea to ask over there for parts?

Howsit maaate!!!
glad Ive seen your thread- U could be a man I want to know.
Im in auckland and have dropped a klze in2 my type R- and I had a type X before too. tho shes long gone now.
Been thinking about the turbo conversoin but its always seemed like too much money, more than I can willingly part with anyway.
Look forward to watching your progress mate

Oh, and just to clarify- are u turboing a standard type X or a klze typeX??
