The title explains it all. Just wondering because I haven't heard of anyone doing it yet so I figured it might make for a good discussion.

Most of the ones I have seen are too small for a DSM. I think the new porsche ones are electronically controlled, which should work much better.

Ya but they're still not nearly big enough. We want a 35R-sized one that will spool at 2500rpms! Well I do, at least :D

How about a turbo taken off of a Powerstroke 6.0 diesel? I don't know what the model number is comparable to, but it is a garret and here (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-Garrett-Turbo-Application-unknown-like-Ford-6-0_W0QQitemZ170174391411QQihZ007QQcategoryZ33742QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)'s a link to some pictures I found of a shot one on e-bay.

I wouldn't mind a 60 trim that would spool at 2000. :robot:

There are some limitations though. A motor can only take in so much air, if you spool a big turbo too fast on a small motor, you get compressor surge. GT35R/61mm turbos spooling normally have compressor surge problems on 2.0l DSM and Evo motors, unless you have a ported shroud/anti-surge cover, which lets some of the backing up air flow back out the front of the turbo, instead of causing the compressor wheel to abruptly stop.

Haha, I just suggested the Garret off the ford because I'm around ford trucks, not dodges. :loser: But nah, I think we ought to put at least a little bit of research into these turbos.
