Hi I got a turbo off a parts car that seems pretty big I was wondering if I could throw it on my spyder and make it faster? I have no idea what turbo it is it says
M12 on it and a/r .50 From the looks of it it should just bolt up. The spyder has a FMIC, Hks bov and I belive a wally 150 fuel pump I don't know of anything else that I would need besides maybe a 3" full exhaust which I got on the parts car I could use if need be.

And could I use the stock waste gate with this as well?

I will see if it has dsm link if it dose that be awsome if not o well I will just leave it be cause trying to use dsmlink is like Chinese to me makes no since and theres no tuners in my area. Im just doing every thing u can to speed it up w/o tuneing. And I dont plan to use that turbo even though the car it was one ran it just fine and I dont think it has dsm link or bigger injectors

Well go ahead and bolt that turbo on your car, turn it up to 20 and let us idiots know how long it last's.

Lol dumbass I was asking if it could be done and if u brotherd to read the post insated if trying to be a smart ass u would seen I ditched that idea long ago and o yeah I never even said cranking boost up on that turbo. That tubro is big as the one on the gsx so why in the hell would i put it to 20 :LOL: So another useless post that has nothing to do with my theard

How about this, bolt any turbo on there and turn the boost higher than 10 psi and see what happens. My first post was straight to the point on what needed to be done. You were given good advice, you than said "Ok maybe 15psi? seems like my stock gst was doing 12 psi back in the day and my buddies gsx was doing 15psi and he didn't have injectors or a tuner either. So I just keep it low then call it good." Even after you were told that you need injectors. Do you see what i am getting at. Why do you come ask questions if you only want to hear the answer that you want to hear. If that was the case than why ask a question in the first place if you already have your mind made up? Sit back, relax and actually listen to the advice you are given and realize that it is correct and them you will get somewhere.
 
OP: C'mon maaaaaaaaan! Link~Chinese? Naw dude. Its really really simple. Just go to ecmtuning.com and look at a few tutorials. I mean the hardest part is dialing in your mafcomps(if you dont go SD) so your target afrs match the actual afr. And thats really not difficult at all. Trust me, its easy to go fast even if you load the timing/afr tables they have. Without tweeking them you can make gobs of power.

The finer nuances of timing and getting afrs nailed perfectly comes with experience.
 
Wow such hate here no wonder people talk bad about these fourms to bad there wasnt some other sites where help is given and lazy posted non since is not. Thanks to the few that offerd help rest of useless posters can go f__k selfs



Umm yeah compared to 11,746 post id say a handfull :rolleyes:



And work wasnt done by me moron so 9k later yeah im suprized its not running right eather :boring:

Maybe if you did some reading and actually did the work yourself the 9k would have been enough to run right. Quick to dismiss and not take others advice, but yet your still paying to fix your car instead of doing it yourself. Who's the real moron?

guess there's a safe way to do it which is your way and there's the risky way to do things and some people just don't like to take risk LOL just cause its not recommended doesn't mean it cant be done. I know of a few dsm that has boost set pretty high and no fancy injectors or tuners.


umm why get my hands dirty when I can pay gear heads such as your self who have orgasms over this kinda stuff to do the work for me. And the car was all ready done when I bought it so u can smd!

do it your self fcuk it up and your out the money pay some one who knows what there doing and they fcuk it up there out the money. I don't care how much u read and think u know EVERY car is different and anything can go wrong when it comes to working on your car.

You can't physically get more fuel from the injector than what it will flow. The engine will run lean, you will melt pistons, damage rod bearings, and blow head gaskets. Did you miss my post where i told you that your injectors are smaller than turbo injectors.

Apparently it wasn't done if you spent 9k.. maybe you should learn to get your hands dirty and you might have some pride in your work such as us "gearheads" regardless if you used the search button you would have found those above and more.
 
Umm yeah it was done right cause the problem with the car has nothing to do with boost since it dose it even with out boosting what so ever. So the performance work has nothing to do with the problem. If I took the turbo off and made it a Non turbo bet anything the problem will still be there.

If you don't even know what is wrong with it, how can you sit there and say that it was built right? How do you even know what right is? So because it runs like shit out of boost it has nothing to do with who built it? Maybe the timing belt skipped, if so than that is the fault of who ever built it. There are way more aspects of building a car than just bolting performance parts to it. If it were that easy than every one could do it and you wouldn't see thousands of these cars being parted out. Post a pic of the engine bay and i would be willing to bet that there are many things that can be picked out at not correct.

Naw timing belt didn't skip cause it would run like carp from the min it starts up it runs fine then just gets worse. And your version of correct could be different then any one elses. Im sure there's a lot of stuff on it that u would be incorrect in your eyes LOL but doesn't mean it wont work nor causing the problem with the car.

and u see 1000s of these begin parted out cause people attempt to do the work there selfs and screw things up which is why I don't do it plain and simple.

That was just a scenario for reference. There are many things that could be wrong causing the car to run like that. Seems like it would be within your best interest to fix the gsx if you want to go fast, and keep the spyder stock for a dd. You should easily be able to go out and get it running good in a few hours or less right.

Which is exactly will happen to yours if you bolt any turbo to it without injectors and tune. There are also tons of them that are worked on by so called shops and dealerships that are ruined. Most of these cars that i have worked on over the years were at some other shop before they were brought to me. It would blow your mind how many shops out there mess these things up every day.
 
Wow OP..... You are one hard headed, ignorant dude! Some of the guys here have been doing this with these cars specifically for a long time. There advice is golden! Keep quiet long enough to think and comprehend what they are saying.... You just might learn something!

What boggles my mind about you is here you are, asking about turbos and how much boost and yadda yadda, when what you should be saying is, "hey fellas, my car is running like crap ever since I blew 9 grand on it at some shop! Please help me get it running right!"

You seem to want to walk before you can crawl... Smh

Either way, it's all up to you. Continue being hard headed, and NO ONE here is going to want to put up with you or help you out. I strongly suggest asking the right questions with the right attitude.

Just my 2 cents homie

Ha yeah golden advice only a few people had advice rest was just smart ass comment's which is useless to the topic such as this. And this thread was never about the 9k gsx car it was a simple will this turbo work yes or no thread. Which btw I didn't spend 9k at a shop LOL the car costed 6k to buy so I say I spent around 2k and that was for some people to tune it to e85 and add some 1100cc jectors. hell all the mods I put on my self cams,air manifold ect. all I paid them to do was to tune which costed out the ass
