Thinking about buying a 20g

[96whitetalon]

Ok i have a big16g right now but its has damage to it due to the fact i blown my 7 bolt and parts of the pistion ring went though the exhaust turbine. So anywho i can get an used 20g for $550 shipping to my door now right now i have 550 injectors do you think i would need bigger injectors to feed this turbo or would they do just fine. On my set up now i have my safc on -18 on the HI setting so i think there is still alot of fuel i can feed this new turbo. So what do you guys think

Those injectors should be ok for lower boost applications...but man 660's are for sure the way to go for the 20G, atleast...I may go bigger when I upgrade this season...

be careful when buying used turbo's....

I woudl ONLY buy a used turbo if I could see it in person, but that is just me. Unless its like a break in turbo that you dont care about. But spending $500+ on a used turbo you need to be sure its what you want. If I were you I would consider a NEW EVO 16g instead...

what is the diffance between big16g and the evo3 16g?

 

[RipperXX]

oh only about 30-45hp and a quicker spool...

well to install an big16g on a 2g i need an install kit, will my install kit work with this turbo or does it even need one? and how much cfm does it flow i know the big16g flows 550

Measuring airflow in cubic feet per minute is useless. You need to also factor in the density of the air, which is directly related to the efficiency of the compressor.

I have datalogged my car being fed 44lbs/min of air from my Evo III 16G, however, which is mass airflow instead of just airflow (CFM).

The install kit is for any mitsubishi turbo (in terms of oil/coolant lines and gaskets). It depends on which turbo specifically you are installing on whether you need the j-pipe or not (some have elbows already welded on).
