Hey i'm thinking about starting a turbo dc4 project.
i'm not specifically aiming for anything (ie. winning FWD autosalon dyno challenge), i just want a car that is fun to drive and can kick some arse when needed.
i don't mind on reaching the 200kw mark when boost is wound up however on low boost, traction problems would be a turn off. also, the main thing is my budget. the most i would like to spend is 5k.
some things i would like to discuss include:
which turbo?
what internal parts will be needed? (pistons? low compression plate?)
has anyone tried ebay turbo kits?
also, i want to know if keeping A/C is an option.
hopefully with all these issues sorted, i can get the project underway.
cheers in advance,
Kyle
Keep replies relative to THIS question. If you have insight , help out.
I just had a turbo kit installed in my EG5...
kit cost me roughly 2k i sourced all the parts..
Labour and tunning 2k
clutch went in 1 week and it needed more tunning 900
im only running 6psi but IT is safe and the difference between N/A and a T3/4 at 6psi is amazing!!!!
sorry guys, i dun have a 180sx, ca18 nor a sr20. it's regarding a b18b dc4.
Please dont argue here cos it can be a bit off-topic and sometimes a bit pointless to the topic. Thank you =D
locote, can you please pm me where you sourced your parts. What specs if your t3/4 and how much kw are you making with 6psi?
Every dyno in perth shows a different reading hehehe...
I gained 45hp at wheels on the dyno it was tuned..
my not sound like much but i know some one with a B16a with mild NA mods thats pulling same power i pulled on this dyno but he had his dynoed at another place....
Ill be taking my car to the track friday night for a few runs.
i could run more boost and make more power but i want my motor to last me a while befor ei have to fork out to rebuild it..
