You are better off selling your NA and buying a dsm. Unless you really want to tackle the project, but its more of a headache than you think.

Have you done it, budda, or even read the How-to's? Mavisky says it isn't that hard, and it doesn't look very difficult in the how-to.

sell your car and buy a turbo car.. cheapest, easiest, less painful way to go turbo..

 

[buddahboost]

No, I haven't do it. Just the fact that the turbo models have... aggressiver timing maps, knock sensor, bigger injectors, blah blah..

Its all just a big headache. To run the knock sensor, you're going to have to drill the block or get a 4g63 block...

I'm just trying to give advice. VFAQ has a how-to turbo your NA. In the end, all the money and time spent on the NA could of been done to the 1g.

If he really wants to, do it. I'm not stopping him, I just want to let him know it isn't going to be easy.

no i agree..

You could always just find a turbo long block and repin the ecu and i think you need a better fule pump too

 

[buddahboost]

That isn't going to help him with the timing maps of the car. Repining the ECU isn't going to make his timing maps like the turbo ones. It isn't going to let the ECU know he has bigger injectors.

I was reading somewhere that non turbo ECU's can be chipped like an Eprom, but like I said, its more of a hassle. What about when you are switching injector sizing?

The safc can only go up to +50/-50 correction and 550cc's are already out the ball park.

 

[Locke]

You should really at least LOOK at the how-to before telling people it is not worth it.

"get a 4g63 block"? "buy a dsm"? "could have been done to the 1g"? WTF You could read up about DSM's a bit, while you're at it.

Wow.

His question was answered in post #2.

I just finished the conversion. If you have a semi good mechanical sense, and like you said you have the tools to do it, it really isn't all that hard. Mine was a bit pricey only because I went with all new name brand parts. But if you find them used or non name brand it could be fairly cheap to do it. The only headaches I had with mine was my intercooler piping didn't fit all that great and I kept blowing couplers under boost. Other than that it was time consuming, but pretty much bolt on easy! If you have any more question just ask man. hope that helps and good luck!
