is a greddy td04 turbo to small to use on the acura engines?

some dude around here uses one on an ls crx. its pretty quick car...i seen him run 8.3s in the 1.8th.

t04 small>?....I dont think so...that is exactly good turbo side for an acura...
It a small car though, so that turbo size may have little lag on it cause it big ...
I say If you have an integra, I wound go t3/t4..good sizing, fast spool up, pick up boost fast ...Well that what I think...

B_1_8_hatch

i have an ls motor in my eg hatch. don't have an integra.

you should post more information on your car's intended purpose, details about your engine, and more details on the turbo for somebody to help

blah I misread the other guys response..

not TO4...TD004...the turbo that comes with the greddy kit.

intensions....i'm running 15.3 on a stock ls motor in my hatch with shitty 60 foot times. i just want to run low 14's...like a 14.0-14.1 or possibly high 13's in my hatch. i will run about 8lbs of boost also and will have 2.5" exhuast piping.

i will probably get some other stuff too...just later on down the line.

What's an Acura engine? Never seen one.

It's a good turbo. I don't know if it will carry boost all the way to the LS redline. It'll spool nice and quick though.

probably cause your still supporting the d series motors :D j/k

you know what i mean foo!!

You just shooting for 14s with a turbo?..hmm let see
greddy kit is 3k
install 500-1000
dyno tuning 300
need better fuel management for reliability 400+.....
- wow all of that for just 1 sec ahead, you think it worth it?...I would go a swap.. cheap supercharge can get you that second ahead too...

hmmm he could install it himself...and get the Greddy Turbo Kit for D-series...and have Tinker219 make him a custom manifold so it can fit the B-series motor..and run AFC-hack..those prices that you posted are way too high dude

Happyman

This should be more realistic:

Greddy D series kit - 1500
intercooler - 100-500(depending on condition, fmic etc etc)
Injectors/resistor box/fuel pump - 300
vafc - 250
bov - 50-200
thats pretty much it

i'm getting the kit from a friend of mine. it comes with an intercooler and some other things. i'm not even paying 1500 for it...i'm paying less than that.

why would i get another swap? i just swapped an ls motor in my hatch!

i already tried the jrsc on my ls motor...didn't do as much as i thought it would. so i sold it and now i'm getting a turbo kit.

B_1_8_hatch

here you go:HKS B-series turbo manifold(cast-iron)
Greddy/Mitsu Tdo4(no shaft play)
Downpipe
Spearco FMIC 26x8x3(polish)
Charge pipe/intercooler pipping
Blitz's Blow-off valve
Walbro 255lph intank fuel pump
FMU
Missing Link
VDO boost gauge
sArd's(jdm) turbo timer
Brass fittings/SS feedline/return line

buying this will be a lot cheaper than getting another motor. i have a 98 ls motor in my hatch with only 36k miles on it. so i have no intentions on getting another swap.
yeah...i could just get a 65 shot of gas and be a high 13 with some bolt-ons,but i want to hear the sound of the bov.

i dynoed 200 whp in my single cam with the single cam greddy kit at 10psi, i dynoed 242 with my b16 with the single cam greddy kit, i ran 8.60 in the 8th. this turbo is by no means too small for the motor, but i am upgrading to a t3/t04e.

any other opinions??????
