hypotheticaly...

[focusedrage]

perhaps... there is a very slim chance that i could get a hold of my friends used evo 8 turbo.... now this is all hypothetical, but how would it compare to the evo 3 turbo? it would not be too hard to put it on a dsm, it is just a wonder. im suprised no one has made an adapter kit or anything.

 

[mitsugsx95]

well, no ones made an adapter kit cause it wont work. The evo 4-8's are all 180 deg switched from our engines.... hence the evo3 turbo we use. You'd be better trying to make it work on a 420a than a dsm 4g63.

i dont understand this logic... i like to call it "im lazy and uncreative logic" because im sure it is posible to... FLIP THE TURBO AROUND, ooo that is perhaps the greatest leap forword. I mean when i was just f-in around with my evo 3 i relized that it would bold up in the oposite direction... although to no good end.

i was ligitimently asking how it compars to the evo3 turbo though, in terms of flow, and what not.

news flash, cars can use turbos that dont bolt up, i mean people sell vatn turbos and i am suprised they have not been tryed on a dsm.


ps. dont mean to be a dick to you mitsugsx95 but i want to express the fealing to the state of mind.

If you look at what Buschur Racing has done with their EVO8 with the stock turbo, I'd say the EVOIII turbo is very similar. I believe they also sell a custom manifold that lets a stock Mitsu turbo bolt onto the evo8. Even if that manifold doesn't work on your car/turbo, it should give you some guidelines.

Is it really worth flipping the turbo around, and then having to clock the compressor housing, build a new O2 housing and downpipe, and then also totally redo the intake piping since it's not going right into your windshield washer bottle, just to get a turbo that probably isn't a whole ton better than the EvoIII 16g?

Well said. The meager benefits in no way out number the cost.

 

[mitsugsx95]

aye.

You did say hypotheticly, but you still said will it fit on a DSM. Dont controdict yourself.

Kpt's right, just get the right turbo in the first place.... nuff said.

i asked the question hypotheticaly...

Of, relating to, or based on a hypothesis: a hypothetical situation.

if saying hypotheticaly, and then describing the sittuation is contradictory then call webster's cause then the word has no use.

it distresses me how much one must push to get past the sillyness of these responses. i am curently installing the evo3 so i dont need to worry. i was just wondering how the two compared. i dont need to hear that it is hard, or difficult, i know.

if anyone can show me some numbers it would just make me happy... im not asking for numbers showing that "OH bla bla the evo8 turbo is only a little better so you might as well do it the proven way bla bla bla" i am doing it the proven way, i just want to learn the differences.

i mean, guys, im not some wild nut, i dont often post like this, you know "oh snap son, it would be bling as hell to drop the evo8 turbo in my ride, mad street cred, YA Herd"

 

[leakyfaucet]

i dont need to hear that it is hard, or difficult, i know.

Uhh, then why did you say this:

it would not be too hard to put it on a dsm

"not too hard" in my mind is short for "not too hard to make it worthwhile," so please don't BS your way out of this one.

People are just trying to save you from wasting your time. You really sound like you're going to try it. Don't be angry at people for trying to help you.

, thanks for your help. i am not gonna try it, im serious, im not in denial, this is soly hypothetical, i lack the funds, or the tools required to do somthign like that. i just want numbers. its like i could ask how a 4g63 compares to an sr20det, both small popular 4 banger turbo motors. but its not like i would put a sr20 in the dsm... its just questions about comparisons.

 

[kpt4321]

Your entire question was phrased around installing it on a DSM...

If you just wanted to compare the two turbos, you should have said that.

I don't know specifications of the EvoVIII turbo, sorry.

 

[sweet97]

The EVO VIII flows 650CFM @ 15 PSI. Unfortunatly it exits facing the drivers side. It is unique to be sure. I was told bt trbocargers that it is able to do 650 CFM with 16G wheels?! Go to www.turbochargers.com and they will show the turbo and the 650 CFM. At first I was told it would fit 5-speed cars then none due to the reverse output. They seem to have the most up to date info. Mark

 

[focusedrage]

thanks, now i guess some oen could close this thread cause im sure it will go off on a wild tangent anyway. but thanks for the info.

leave it flipped and ditch power steering to fit an intake, no problem =)
