East side,
Washington
I picked up a 14b 49178- 01010 - 12fin compressor side with what looks like an evo3 exhaust side 6cm housing. No in and out play, little side to side but Ive since read that is normal for these turbos.
I'm not in a rush to bolt this thing on and see what it can do, I do eventually want to give it a go though. From what I have researched so far the 14b with the 6cm exhaust side is a great setup for this turbo.
Wanting to put things together properly what injectors are a good fit for this thing? Is it safe to run with stock injectors at ballpark 15#? I do plan on getting ECM Link and need to do some other work on the car already before I even think about using this turbo.
As far as plans go this will be the largest turbo I will go to period. Quicker spool is ideal, I want around 300-350?hp I would prefer that the car lasts longer without breaking things and so far I have fixed many many non engine related issues. Some engine related too.
If anyone is familiar with how this will spool vs the t25 I am curious. I like the silly fast spool of the t25 and from what I read you still get fast spool with a 14b and if you use the smaller 6cm exhaust it makes it sing. I read some posts saying the 7cm will reduce spool time too much which I don't want.
Will I be looking at needing a higher flow fuel pump and or Aftermarket fuel pressure regulator I mean maybe for tuning but even to run it?
I have ridden in a 1g stock with cranked up boost on the 14b doing autocross and it was unreal! It was running about 20# but it spooled amazing and the car pulled amazing for the short road work. I just put koni's and eibach pro kit springs in.
