t3/t4 install questions

[toppertopper]

This will be my 1st turbo upgrade..So i am not sure what i will need to get it in

Td04e a/r .50 a/r 63 (yes its ebay ) but its just kicking around . My engine will need to be rebuild some time any way ..So for this summer run it will do for now.

I have the exaust manifold for it also has the flange for the external waste gate (have that to)

What oil and coolant line fitting ?
j-pipe from stock intercooler how does that work
Where do i find the custom o2 housing ?
I am at a complete loss of where to start ...I was looking for a write up with pic's on an install , but found nothing ! maybe i was looking wrong ?

Pics of said turbo?

How much did you buy from ebay?

You do know you could have got a stock, or 16g turbo for about what you paid for that one.

I'm gonna wait for pics of the turbo.But I'm guessing it's going to be a forward facing compressor housing.Which means your going to need at least a coupler, or a coupler and bendy pipe, to attatch to the stock IC piping.

Haven't been able to upload pics in 2 days .. But i have pics of the turbo in another thread... http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/431998-external-waste-gate-how.html

Paid nothing for the turbo , exaust manifold , waste gate ..So it will only cost me the parts to install it ...Can't complain with that

Ohh this again.

EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts

Looks like its a garret style return flange. So theres your flange. But im unsure of the specs it needs for oiling.

For the feed you can use a adapter to 4an from the OFH or the head. Depends on the specs once again.

As for the exhaust, Im unsure of that flange But I know our o2 housing wont work with that. So you will need a custom exhaust and o2 housing. You will need a bung welded for the o2 sensor. Could it be a holset flange? I dont know..

Could the flange be this. You then could use a vband exhaust which would HAVE to be custom made. My guess the time and money you have in this exhaust you can buy a REAL turbo.

Again, I dont recommend this on your car. I would hate to see you go through this all to find out it only lasts 100 miles or a fin breaks and blows your motor. And depending on the turbo, It is crucial to have the oiling correctly based on oil pressure. Sorry if I came off hard.

o2 housing like this would work?

Sure that looks like it will work. Its hard to tell in that turbo pic. I dont know how much you have in this whole build so far. But if thats 95, you can get a good 16g for under 300. Just a thaught and it would be bolt on. That turbo doesnt use a j pipe. It a down firing turbo. So you would have to have intercooler piping for it or a long 90 degree coupler.

The turbo pics are horrible quality.I love the pants your wearing tho.

I'd sell you a 14b,but your in canada, shipping would be stupid expensive.

I would also not reccomend an ebay turbo on your car. And your going to have more lag than you did with the stock 14b, or even possibly a 16g.

But if you want to run an ebay turbo for less miles than a tank of gas be my guest.

Lol my woman is holding the turbo
20g's are direct bolt up to ? I can just sell it off and upgrade to 20g

 

[Bud92gsx]

Yes and no.I say both because, your profile says the car is bone stock.I would just go with a 14b, untill you need a larger turbn a pretty much stock vehicle, a 14b is really the beez knees.

Small 16g's spool a tad slower than 14bs, and do flow more air.Then it goes big or evo 3, 18g, and 20g for airflow and spool time.

 

[jpmxrider489]

I would go with a 16g. Don't jump into a t3 setup just yet. Get a bolt on turbo until you get to uunderstand everything.

 

[toppertopper]

I've had many 16g's looking to go bigger this time around .Need to learn how to do the turbo's some time ...going for turbo , injectors , fule pump and fpr , along with dsm link ..and 2.5 or 3" exhaust back..and with wide band of course
Already have full race suspension with springs , rear chamber kit .Gm maf and maft
Will be doing vac del and abs del

How to change a turbo.It's easy and only hurts your first time,.
