just wondering if anybody has or knows of any1 who has turbod or supercharged an EP3R
i believe TODA had one
Itd be same as a DC5. Toda had one with about 220kwatw with a stock bottom end.
Just throw a 2.4 bottom end in Steve! Wont cost that much!
Check the UK and Europe CTR forums. They have been turbocharging their EP3Rs for years.
If you've got a good budget, turbo it...
Don't do it on a low budget just for the sake of it.
Don't cut corners on thermal management or engine management.
If you want something that works & lasts, just do it once & do it right.
The initial outlay may be more, but the end cost is less.
Turbocharged, the std engine is capable of 220~230kw @ wheels (@ 8psi)
A built engine is capable of loads more.
What you do with the thing is up to you...
If you like the sound of angry pigs, then maybe a supercharger is more your thing.
u the same steven i was at wsid ages ago ?? i did 3 runs and took off because it was 2 packed
yeh that was me u been there since r u cming this wednsday
haha awesome man hows things man ?? done much to ur car since then ??

and i wish i could go this wednesday but i cant go because they wont let me compete, i got a crack on my windscreen and i gotta wait for aftermarket windscreens to arrive from japan :(
thats got 2 suck but my mate has raced his commodore wagon a few times now he has a few big cracks in his passenger side windscreen. they did even look at it just had a winge at his helmet (didnt have a sticker on it).
i reckon the more ppl the more fun no harm in risking it!!!!!!!!!!!!
all thats new is just a set of headers and cai anything new 4 u?
haha ur mates lucky. mine is on driver side so definately no for me :(

i pulled a 14.1 PB is a 13.9 but

I think EGBOY has a Turbo EP3R.

hahaha 13's here i come :D
that is an awesome parts list EGBOY...just wondering what manifold are you going with? was gonna go down the boosted path, but too much hassels with boost
As Toda stated, if you do it, then do it right first time. I've been on boost for over 18months now and motor still pulls strong. People tend to think that with boost comes trouble, but if you listen to your tuner (hopefully someone who know's their sh*t), then you'd be laughin.
nice...what times did u run? and what sort of power are u putting out?
Well the run before I blew my clutch, I ran 12.85@118mph (2.2 60ft). That was in street trim less usual spare wheel, jack & sub, using s2k front wheels with Dunlop 2050s tyres (sh*t I know but it was a last minute call out from the boys and my 18's were bold). Hopefully when I pick up a new clutch and maybe some Adrenalins it'll run mid-low 12s.
Car makes 220kw at the wheels. Stock internals.
nice power figures. as he says. if u do it right the first time. and listen to the tuner. u cant go wrong. well said 7ypeR
