Hi all,

just looking for some input ont he setup i can get here in my country.

Engine: 2.0 turbo block, bored .20 over, manely piston (9.0:1) /rod combo, head have titanium vales with evo springs. OEM cams, 3g lifters, Forged crank.

so heres the deal, i may be able to get an e316g turbo (virgin state)... i already have a 14B (which is inmaculate also), walrboro 255 lph, FP Race manifold.

I will be using stock injectors, stock fuel rail and will leave the turbo at wastegate presure psi. Also will install a FPR.

What im worried is how the car will behave with this turbo, as it is not the stock one and i wont be able to get ecm link till decemeber this year or so!

Also, with the fp race manifold will this turbo spool way up high in the rpm range? i already had a spyder gst with a t25 so i know ill see boost later than with it but, do you guys think that i will get full boost before the 7k rpm red line? cause if ill see full boost at around 6.5k rpm im not sure if it will be a good option to use this turbo.

On the future i will like to see around 22 to 25 psi in the e316g.

Thanks
 
one thing i have learned from having dsm's is drivetrain only takes so much and with the 7 bolt they do not like strong clutch's. plus you dont even have to open the motor til like 400hp just throw in arp head bolts and a nice gasket and put some money in your tranny and other stuff like a safc2 and wideband o2 tuning is everything for a motor without a good tune you might as well flush away those nice parts you bought.

Thanks for the input...

but in not aiming for power... the motor is out, the block needed to be overbored, this is what im getting right now (if there are 10 eclipses turbo in my country its a lot)

the only thing i want to know, is if it will be safe to run all this with the stock ecu map.

I did deal with tranny issues with my first car, i know i cant simply put parts and let the fun begin...

Thanks

"Safe", yes - when the ECU see's too much air going through the MAF, it will cut fuel for you before you can do any damage.

IIRC, I was hitting fuel cut on my 14B with a Supra SMIC at ~18PSI on colder nights.

Honestly, I would stick with the 14B until you have the money for an DSM Link - you'll be faster. The factory ECU is going to limit your max power so you're going to want to "maximize the area under the curve"; i.e., get up to that asymptote as soon as possible. The smaller, faster spooling turbo will get you there.

nice!

well the lowest temp ill get here is around 25 degrees celcius....

its always warm in here...

i guess ill be very safe

thanks for the input... the only thing that really matter to me its fuel cut under 12 or so psi with the e316g before 7k rpm redline!
