Custom Turbo Apllication

Recommended Posts

ok well i have been thinking about this for a while (not that i plan on doing it anytime SOON if at all). Could you just get a big jerk turbo put on an already turbo car. I know everyone upgrades to a 18g or 19c but couldnt you just go to a shop and let them somehow affix a massive turbo in place of the old one?

How about somethin like this?

with that thing you would be worrying about making your engine more durable and not ripping your tranny to shreds WAY before you hit its limits. I mean that thing pushes 800 cfm instead of like 550 with a 19c

and considering they are selling them for $670........ That plus a couple hundred for fitting and your still in the ballpark of a 18g or 19c.

I mean would there be any huge problems with this??

I don't even know where to start.

Actually, you should go pick up the book called Maximum Boost by Corky Bell.

Also, learn to read compressor & turbine maps if you want to have an idea of what size turbo your engine could use.

get you started... http://www.turbosaturns.net/articles/compressor%20maps.htm
