Turbo upgrades!

[sleepydsm]

For a nice 2G intercooler, I suggest the 'AGP Turbo' 2g FMIC kit. Turbo choice? Any kind of 16G will be plenty for your goals. But if you're gonna get all the fuel stuff, and a FMIC, why not take advantage of all that and what the stock engine can handle? Why not consider a PTE SCM "50 trim"? I have a BR 20g on my car right now; 20Gs are hard to find at a good price. I have to say my 20G is barely laggy. If there is any lag, its nothing to bitch about, and its just overall a nice turbo.
Injector size? again, if you go with a 16g, you'd probably be fine with 550cc's. Anything bigger I'd say get maybe 650cc or bigger.

When JasonR put down 423 on your turbo, he only had 550's in his car.

Big 16g ported for $300...Good deal or no? But would it be ok to run on my stock fuel system and intercooler at low PSI..

[CornFed2.4]

what do you consider low boost??? Good deal if new decent if used but in perfect shape ie no shaft play

[98gstaherns]

10 ish i dunno for sure

[CornFed2.4]

someone correct me if I wrong but you have to run stock boost unless U get an external wastegate

2G manifolds do not have the cracking issues that the 1G manifolds have.

I hit 308WHP with my Big 16G, 550's, Supra 255 pump, and a SupraSMIC on my old Laser.
(with Shane tuning of course )

2G manifolds crack just like the 1G's do, just not quite as fast.

See i just want to replace mine because i'm starting to think it is gonna go soon. Gonna have it look at tomorrow. But Hopefully i an get my Daily driver fixed so i can wait. But i need to get injectors 550, fuel pump, safc and a new intercooler set up!

[98gstaherns]

This is what he told me about the turbo!
The turbo is in good shape. It has a little surface rust on the wastegate actuator. It won't affect anything, but you could sand it down and paint it. I'm not sure on the miles as I bought it as a project that I never completed. It has very, very minimal shaft play. It definitly won't need a rebuild any time soon

[98gstaherns]

Do i need a 1g manifold for a big 16g?

Oh ok..Yea i know a ineed a install kit..But i thought it wouldn't fit the 2g mani. Thanks

[98gstaherns]

Ok no i need a little input about these injectors... http://www.extremepsi.com/store/cust...cat=429&page=1 Now for the Qty. Do i just leave it at one? Does it mean 1 set of them..

[Jakey]

I would certainly hope the 1 is for 1 set of injectors considering the price.

Wow.....

[98gstaherns]

Yea thats what i thought but i was just really confused...Sorry i'm dumb sometime...I like just going to a place and buying not over the internet B.S..

ExtremePSI is a very reputable vendor that has been with the DSM community for quite sometime. I would have no problem purchasing from them.

[sleepydsm]

Buying over the internet can usually net you better deals than you could get from a local shop.

[98gstaherns]

Oh yea i trust them but i just like talking and asking people!

[98gstaherns]
