Topic #12622 68 posts Started by powerkor
forkee and zipstrips,

What all did you use for this swap, just a turbo, intercooler, and some custom piping?? I would love to do this, but what's the parts list? >smile.gif>

hey 97sccelica i bought zipstrips turbo set-up. I have 2.25 custom exhaust do you think that will be good enough?

yea your 3sgte is cool but ill stick to my 7agte
also 97, what size piping did you have in the engine, running from the turbo to the intercooler back to the TB?

My turbo setup is lacking parts like a wastegate and intercooler, guages etc. little things like that so it only works sometimes and either boosts my car on occation or bogs it down. Nobody in my area will help me fix it and my engine needs re-sealing so I just took it off and it'll have to wait till later when I go back to the west coast. My car was dyno'ed and they didnt ever give me any results. But I dont think they were good and thats why. When it works I can beat a lot of cars off the line but when it doesnt, it feels like its gonna die. I cant change the timing on the car.

no it will just use the turbo at high speeds when i dont need it, wearing it down faster

yes yes i would love to see video. or maybe a detailed map of the engine and all the places youd have to hook into. when i started the project I didnt know very much about it. My turbo was tested and still pushes the norm 5-7psi after 6 months.
