Take the vacuum line of the FRP, losen the locking bolt and then with the allen key screw that in or out untill you set your fuel pressure to 5 on your fuel pressure gauge. Then tighten the locking nut back down while holding the adjuster with the allen key so it doesnt move. then reconnect the vacuum line and you will be all set.

Alright guys, I turn to you all for some help: I bought snoflake's DC and it's time to get a new turbo. My ultimate goal is a vtec head and around 500hp on high boost, my goal for the time being is just above 400hp. I guess I am asking for the best of both worlds: decent spool and I dont want to run super high boost (28+). Also I don't have the funds to get a bb turbo quite yet so what do you guys reccomend? This car IS daily driven as well so I want it to be streetable....thanks!

Like snowflake says, What good is anything over 350 on the street? You will not go anywhere with that much wheel spin. 250whp on the street in my eg and 1-2 gears are pretty much usless under boost LOL. The DA being heavier im sure will get more traction but again its going to be usless with high output.

If you want good spool and 400whp range then again snowflake is rigth get your self a basic t3/t04e with a 57 trim. shoudl spool up relatively good and meet you power goals.

Either that or stick with what you have right now and save up for a garrett GT or ball bearing T series turbo. I happen to be selling a mint turbonetics T4/T04E. its not going to meet your spooling demands. I get about 10 psi by 4500 with an easy gate setting on my boost controller. On wastegate spring alone 10 psi is more like 5500 rpm. Amazing what a boost controller does for you.

Good Luck picking a turbo, you may also what to condiser a T3/T61 with a .63 a/r. This will closly match the power of a 60-1 and keep a little better street spooling.

As for your ultimate goal of 500whp vtec head and high boost. Well High boost really wont be nessesary. Moderate boost easily pumps out 500whp on a vtec head. Do a poor mans itr and 600whp is attainable on moderate boost meaning mid 20's. Possible mid to high 20's depending on your tuner.

the oil seals are gone on the turbo now so i'm just going to upgrade, but anyways the more HP, the better! I have ridden in a few honda's w/ over 350hp and although they have traction issues (apparent in virtually any boosted honda) they are still more fun.....there's a t3/t04e for sale locally, 60 trim, .63 ar maybe i should ****** that up...

thats the same size t3t4 thats int he car right now!!!


ive said it a million times.. #'s dont mean anything....i will swear i can have that car run 10's in the 1/4 with that same set up as the car sits!!!

that turbo is a t3t4 60 trim .63 A/R
and if u wanted to upgrade... me and a friend had similar set ups..
he was 84mm i was 85mm.. he was 8:8.1 u are 9:3 comp....with a stock GSR head in a GSR he ran 10.80's with the 62-1.....talk with jdm sl33per he now has my old 62-1 and is throwing it on his 2.0L LsVtec.....watch how much he likes that turbo!

My turbo not only has the small leak but makes a really weird crackling sound when reving it up in neutral and letting off..

I can get it rebuilt for 300..

I have a appointment at inline pro for wednesday they suppose to change my drain line to steel braided because the dumb *** who did it has it kinked. I also suppose to upgrade my manifold from the drag to the inline pro. And get a used turbo they have thier..

Thier charging me 750 for a used stainless inline pro manifold and a t3 57trim used it has a 48 ar or something another on the exhaust side if i'm not mistaken.. They said the car would be just has fast because it would spool way quicker but my old turbo was bigger..

My old turbo was a t3 ar 60 with a 56intake and a 60 exhaust how do they compare??

Do i set the FPR running or with the car cut off??

that sounds like a pretty good deal .

Car running is how you set it because the fuel pump needs to be continuosly running and only way for that to happen is for the engine to be running.

Scrap that old turbo and get the inline pro setup

Samuels

Whats the big difference in the turbo setups??

Will it hurt me hp wise or hurt my track times??

Most people just tell you what you wanna hear or BS you and honestly i'm not sure i just no mine was way bigger...

I want to run a high 12 sec pass..
I have the turbo setup with a 10psi tial spring
RC 550's
Inline pro fuel rail
Walboro 255
3inch exhaust
3inch DP
msd cap and blaster coil
And i have 20x8x14 slicks

I need to get me a new Intake manifold,bigger Throttle body but that'll probably be it.. Looking for a high 12sec pass is it possible...

The car ran a 13.2 at 8psi on the old 60 trim setup with street tires..

Samuels

I'm dropping 1k at inline getting it all installed,oil drain steel braided, and they gotta do some welding for me..

Its just killing me dropping so much into the car. I keep thinking about getting mine rebuilt for 300 and having money for a IM,TB,rims etc but then i have the downtime that i don't want.. But the thing is i've heard the drag manifold is garbage it cracks and causes crazy boost creep which will kill a stock motor..

I'm just ready to put 500 miles on my new clutch and let MSHUE tune it so i can get on it hard, its been a long time since i was boost and that was my mr2 damn i miss it..

k9n

Yeah I saw JDM S1's car and have spooken with him, its nice! But my question is why get such a large turbo and not shoot for high numbers?

Is there any particular way i should have my feed line facing? For instance, should i have the fitting facing towards the motor or towards the radiator? Also, how did u guys route the feed line? Through the transmission side, or timing belt side?

how do stock manifolds hold up under boost? im building a lsvtec turbo and ill be using i think an ls or b16 mani. lookin at about 375 hp with i dunno, lets say 16psi (guessing)

D-t

????

Stock manifold?? There's no way. You have to use a turbo manifold. The only motor you'd be able to use a stock manifold from would be on a d15/d16 I believe. Using the HF, or std manifold with an adapter plate.

error

intake manifold, not exhaust.

stock b16 intake manifold is good for about 700whp and outflows all aftermarket intake manifold up to 8000 rpm. the bigger aftermarket units are for 8000 rom and higher.

Im assuming this is all in an EG hatch correct? Well i ran a 12.50 flat on street tires not dot's straight up nitto street tires making 240whp and babying the car off the line. That should give you an idea of what your aiming for. Its easy to run a high 12 in a EG hatch. That 12.50 pass was literally one of the first times i had even been on a track so its not like i chopped down the tree and got a serious 60ft time either. Any amature can get out there and run what i ran. 10 psi air pressure and slip the clutch out at 4500 rpm is how i did it.

As for intake mani get a blox or skunk 2. The box style like im running you will loose a little torque as there designed for higher rpm. The skunk2 and blox are basically a B16 remake to fit an LS head. The b16 flows very well and has a decent length runner to keep low end torque.


I FINALLY SOLD MY TURBO AND TURBO MANIFOLD!!!! YEAHHHHHHH ORDERING MY GARRETT GT35/T67R FROM FULLL RACE THE END OF THIS WEEK. IM STOAKED
