20G Or 16G Turbo Possibility


c7024

Recommended Posts

Wassup Ya'll. I'm bored of my small 13t in my c70 and am looking to upgrade. I know a 16t is a simple and not too costly way to go, plus the speeedtuning chip will help it all work in harmony. But here lies my prob, my boy is willing to let his 55k turbo go off of his 2005 Evo for dirt cheap. He claims it's a 20g which is good, but can i swap that turbo onto my 2.4L with no problem? If there's anything that needs to be done what would it be? Also would speedtuning make a chip that will make it all work?

This will be done during the spring before the show in Carlisle so I have some time, but to get all of the parts ahead of time and install them all at once is the key since $ is an issue as usual.

Thanks in advance for the help

Stock turbo on EVO is 16G unless he upgraded.

A 20G on your stock 2.4L is pointless.

To make it work you would just need a couple things, custom exhaust manifold, custom oil/coolant lines, custom intake hoses, intercooler hose, new downpipe, and a custom tune. Pretty much the least bolt on turbocharger ever in existence. . . .

Lol, ok. So it's basically not work the investment. Thanks for the help. 16T it will be.

If anyone knows about a good 16T,please let me know. I will check the for sale daily.

Even though you got scared off so quickly, lookforjoe did a pretty good job of describing his ordeal with the 20G.

It is not a drop-in and he is having trouble getting a good tune.

Lookforjoe is NOT using a LPT engine :P

Those are rebuilt EVO IX turbos, they are 16G's with a 20G wheel that are redone by that member just like the one's Spanky does for us here on VS.

Quoted from the selller on that site, "They are stock Evo 9 turbos with the 20g wheel put in them, if you want a stock 9 turbo i can get you that too. It would be $750 shipped. Remember People No CORE REQUIRED on these prices, you get to keep your stock turbo." Peeps need to read :lol: .
