Hey i got this info from turbonotics...here is the info..does ne1 know about this brand of turbo, i heard them before, but dont know if they r ne good. Also if ne1 has one, r they capable of holding 300whp..
Sport Compact Racers like Matt Scranton, Christian Rado, and Ara Arslanian crush the competition with Turbonetics turbos and now you can too. These complete turbo kits come with everything you need to make big power - up to 260 horsepower on a stock 1994-2001 Integra GSR! Built around Turbonetic's T3/T4 hybrid, the kits deliver fast boost response and high airflow capacity. The kits come with turbo, plus Spearco intercooler and pipes, manifold, downpipe, Turbonetics Raptor blow off valve, Evolution wastegate, Lucas 440cc injectors with pre-programmed injector driver, map sensor, and vent lines. Complete with all hardware and installation instructions needed to turn your car into a fire breathing racer!

 

say what!?!

 

Thats the info i got...is turbonetics ne good?..and could they hold 300whp?

 

there are so many different sizes out there, get the exact specs and we might be able to help you out with power output.

 

yeah bro, turbonetics makes a great kit. i have one on my 94 gsr. I'm not pushing what im looking for right now, but with out a boost controller or any other parts, im pushing 215 at the wheels at 6 pounds. Im installing a thicker head gasket to lower my compression, a greddy boost controller, 750cc injectors, and a hondata stand alone. The T3/T4 .60 trim turbo that they offer with the kit can handle over 300 horse. The only thing i didnt like about the kit was the instructions and the injectors. The instructions suck!! The kit doesnt include 4 additional injectors, it come with two that connect in the upper intercooler pipe and comes with a controller. Thats gay as hell, but they work decent. Let me know what you buy.

i thought thicker head gaskets raised ur compression. because i read on the spoon 2 ply head gasket it said since its thicker it raises the compression

 

yea i thought thicker head gasket raised compression numbers too.

 

No. Go to hks.com and check out their 2.6mm head gasket for a gsr. It lowers the compression to 8.58 or something close to that.

 

hmm, always thought that thinner gasket = higher compression due to it being closer together.

 

no 2 ply would not nessicarly mean thicker, in the spoon case it lowers it but 2 ply is better quality than the stock one.

 

1Sickteg.....whats all ur mods done to ur engine to handle ur turbo right now...and u said ur running at 6psi?...is that the setting they provide, or can u run higher.. but i notice u said u need a boost controller, so maybe u can raise the psi w/that..haha..im not stupid, im just learning new things.. askin stupid questions makes u smarter!..also, the injectors arent the best that they supply u with? Then, whats some that would work good?... Also, how does the BOV sound?...Hey thanks a lot.. Its a lot of trouble sometimes to find a turbo that works, im glad i know some1 that has used this turbo! thanks

 

LOL, OMG we have a bunch of noobs here. no offense.

Yes turbonetics makes good turbos. i've been running turbonetics' for about 3 years now and they've held up great. my current turbonetics turbo i've had for about 1 1/2 years and it's been doing great. now about their kit...i don't know for sure how great their kits are. i've never had or known of anyone with any experiences with these kits. IMHO, i would never go with a kit that supplies additional injectors that plug in somewhere else. it's just too much of a hassle and later on down the road, you'll just end up plugging those additional injector holes with a screw or something.

as for a thicker headgasket, it lowers the compression. think about it, when you put on a thicker headgasket you're putting more distance between the head and block and making a larger combustion area.

 

First off, there's no such thing as a stupid question. That's why we're on here, to learn things right? Right! I dont have any mods done. Its factory internals now. All I have is an apexi v-afc2 for vtec and fuel control. Vtec kicks in at 5000 now. And I have a custom 2.5 inch exhaust from the turbo back to an apexi N1 muffler w/ no cat. Oh, and msd wires with ngk iridium plugs. Thats it.
The kit says it comes with 8psi normally, but mine runs 6psi. You can ofcourse change that with a boost controller, which is what i plan on doing. I've heard you can run up to 12-14 psi with factory internals with a good tune. But dont quote me on that, Im still learning too! I'd say get the turbo and run with the lucas injectors for now, but when you're ready to upgrade, go to precision or rc injectors. Or whatever you prefer. Anything else you wanna know, just ask. I'll let you know what im running when i get my stuff installed and tuned.--Dave

 

You say your LS is running over 380 horse. Is that with a built motor or factory internals? Whats your setup?? And yeah, the additional injectors for that kit are bogus! Thanks- Dave

yes my motor is fully built. and turbo setup is custom with AEM EMS w/UEGO wideband as management. if you live in st.paul, mn you may have seen my teg roll around. it's an all white teg with white rims and all w/Elite Autosports sticker on the side windows.

and Dave, you can't boost over 10psi safely without a standalone. and you really shouldn't go over 11 psi without a 3 bar map sensor. it's possible to go over 11 psi with just an FMU/Missing Link setup, but i would definately not recommend it.

Would you like to elaborate on that?

 

I dont think I've seen your car around, but it sounds nice. My turbo kit came with a missing link and it is installed on my car. Would you recommend elite for honda tuning? I had my v-afc2 and turbo timer installed there and ever since then my tachometer doesn't work on full throttle. They screwed something up and didnt offer anything to fix it. I haven't been there since. You know any good honda tuners in the midwest? Im looking to get tuned with my new gasket, injectors, and hondata. I've heard i can run more than 10 pounds, but i dont want to blow my motor up. Thanks for your info bro. One more thing. I'm looking for a crew or team (C.C.) to roll with. You know of any around here?

i always install stuff on my car by myself so i know what's up...the only thing i do over there is tune. i don't think i can anyone else working on my car unless i know them personally and know that they actually have the knowledge. as for tunning, Isaac isn't there anymore so i'm not sure who does the tuning for those. but if you're looking for a good tuner in the whole midwest or near MN, the a lot of people suggest Payne Tech in MI.

as for running more than 10psi, you won't be able to unless you hook up a 3Bar Map since you're gonna be using hondata. it's fine with a very good tune, but your stock parts won't last too long.

 

Do you know the city that the shop is located in michigan? I assume you hang out on university in st. paul on the weekends, maybe ill see you down there. I've got a red teg with Konigs and a spearco fmic. Say hey if you see me and ill do the same. Thanks for the help! --DAVE--

i do go there every now and then. i don't right now since i'm waiting on a clutch fork for my transmission...but maybe i'll have it done this Friday and might be able to head out there. i'm not sure where the shop is so you'll have to look it up. i think there are a few from MI on this forum. maybe they might know. sorry i couldn't help you out with this. maybe you can go to a integra dyno day with us at propulsion in april after you get your car running right.

 

I tried iming you aout the propulsion teg dyno day, but maybe i did it wrong. I dont know my way around this forum quite yet. What is it and when? I didnt know propulsion had a dyno. But yeah, I'd meet up with you down there. Im always up for meeting new peeps with imports. You have helped me, so thank you.
