I didn't read every post on page two but 2 things
1.) where the hell do you get 500 bucks for an external gate? Or is that the gate and the O2 housing? you can also order the hotside housing of some turbos with the wastegate mount on it and not have to buy manifolds or O2's (but must make sure there's room for it)
My other thing is this.. if you're trying to rev to 8K + RPM you're going to need a transmission built for at least another 1700 + shipping if you REBUILD yours in order to be able to shift at those RPM's without either being locked out of the gear or grinding the synchro's to dust... the stock mitsu trans really doesn't like to shift over 7k, 7500 RPM if you got good fluid, a nice working clutch and are lucky every shift in a race where you're trying to shift fast
I've revved my car out there and with a built trans it shifted fine, on the now stock AWD from the conversion, i'm lucky to shift above 7200 RPM if i want it to happen faster than in grandma style driving
I just started seeing a lot of mis-info tossed around and inflated numbers on both prices and turbo capabilities here.. not everyone can take a EIII16g and make 400hp with it, only a select few well designed builds are going to do that... for 1300 dollars you can buy a t3/t4 hybrid 50 trim, turbonetics cast mani with external gate provision + the external gate and have your whole package with a good basis to upgrade from should you choose and the 50 trim is proven to be able to get to or make more than your 400hp goal on pump gas with a good tune and maybe water injection you could get 450 on pump gas from it, still spool decent ot have a great stret powerband and something you can rebuild and get parts for should you need to...my last 57 trim lasted about 10 years of abuse and still put down 438hp with the blades about gone from errosion when i lost a filter in the winter and the bearings in it were still perfect after over 100k miles of use/abuse
if you look into "DSM specific" turbos you will burn through 1300 easily, if you look at a manifold and then the "universal turbos" that can fit it you can do wonders
oops that's why i said i didn't read all the posts on page two, i just pointed out somethings from page one. My bad for not noticing you already bought a good package, congrats. Just please tell me you got that in steel ball bearing version on the turbo????
Hello guys,
I need help for my turbo, my engine is down and I already sold my E316G with my ported 2g ex manifold....
My head cylinder have ferrea valves guides and seals, crower SS valves, crower spring/retainer. (am tryng to get 272 hks cams for a good price) and is ported. not valve job.
am just waiting to get my rods and turbo, am loyal to 2.0. everyhting is forged with arp everywhere, so am pretty "secure" on hard ware.
I just want a street/strip turbo, with the capibilties to hold at least 24 psi on pump until 8.5k rpm (thats my goal). I read tons of threads here regarding holset/FP green-red/ S256... and I cant find any specific threads with my setup.
I dont want external wastegate, i like the bolt on stuff, my budget is 1.3k$ for the turbo with the previous requierement.
any suggestion?
ps: sorry for my english, it's not my native lenguage.
) portion of a well flowing turbine section, vital to make good power.In the 500+ hp range, if you're nixing the idea of an external wastegate, you're shooting yourself in the foot. It's an "integral" () portion of a well flowing turbine section, vital to make good power.
