What up H-T

Basically a friend of mine has a turbo kit he'll give me for $200 lol and i was wondering if this would be a good deal..this is what it includes..

jaimu t3 t4 (i think its ebay) but its brand new...
big FMIC (without piping)
tial wastegate(used)
greddy bov(used)
550cc injectors(i think they are meant for a truck)
mini turbo timer..

I know ima be needing somethings and a tune(maybe a fuel pump and clutch but hopefully what im aiming for ...i dont have too)..and its going on a 95 integra gsr..stock internals..just looking for a lil power..maybe boost 6 or 7psi...im aiming for 240hp and something torque....


Here are my questionss????

1. is that turbo decent?
2. would those injectors fit?!?
3. AND SHOULD I GET THIS!!??!

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME much appreciated
Happy Holidays!

 

the WG, BOV, and IC are already a steal at $200

 

yeah thats what i was thinkin too but...iono about the turbo tho

 

mannn 87 views 1 reply!??! common guys this is easy for you

 

take it

 

Ok. I'll keep it simple.

1. Nope. And TiAL nor GReddy style are not the same as the real thing.
2. Yep. The injectors fit for that power level
3. HELL NO!!! Stop looking on E-bay for the sake of all that is holy. (And to get this crap just to resell the rest of the crap to someone else on this or any other forum is ludicrous.

 

not another one of these threads... :facepalm:

 

never heard of jaimu turbos and your probably right about it being ebay. i would shoot myself in the c**k before USING that setup, but if it was only $200 bucks you could always buy the kit, do more research and learn about turboing a setup the RIGHT way, then sell that junk to a newb for 2-3x the amount you paid and make some money off it for a REAL setup. just my .02

 

The way I look at it is, you get what you pay for! Ill admit i once did it the cheap way and nothing worked out for me. I wouldnt even get it to sell to someone else. Save your money and get good stuff even if its a blox or inline pro mani.. GL with whatever you do

 

to do a turbo right with new parts on a gsr, all said and done will run you about 4,000 including the clutch. if that number scares you or you want to cut corners just keep it stock.

 

The headache and hidden associated costs with trying to piece together an ebay kit and considering the likely damage you'll do to the engine, it is safer and maybe even cheaper to just save up and get the quality kit.

 

But you know he's gonna install it anyway.

 

cheap sloppy install ftw **** on all the vtak

 

Yeah if they are real and not fakes.

 

yeah i understand you guys input! thanks i think ima just get a type r muffler...call it a day.. cause i already got i/h/and the rest of the piping..just need a muffler... ANYWAYS they have ruger double action revolvers on sale right now

ill spend the money on security

 

Or do what I did and buy a little bit at a time. Took me 6 months to a year but all quality stuff.

 

+1

 

still adds up to similar cash.

you ever add up every little piece you bought? all i need is a BOV and a couple gauges. comes in just over $4000 for everything

 

^Yes thats true, but sometimes when your the "younger generation" its hard to save money (at least for me). So every check i get i put in the bank during lunch and come back to my computer, click on GO-Autoworks and order one part at a time before i spend it on beer,pizza,girl ect. So far with a intercooler,WG,BOV and charge pipes i think im exacally at 1,073 w/ the cyber monday 10$ off lol (wastegate comes today!!)

Either way OP, this is a rich mans game. spend it now or spend it later.

 

i did the same thing and i even make fairly decent money. turbo here, manifold there etc. and with a background in building cars. all the little parts, lines and small pieces would kill a noob trying to do this

 

^^^ I second that. Like i always say, tuning car's heavily isn't for people on a budget....and going from NA to FI is what i class as heavy & i'm sure many others will agree.

 

get it. resale what u dont want

 

Ebay turbos are hit and miss. I've had an Ebay one in my car for more than three years now and it's still completely fine. No shaft play at all. I realize I'm running on borrowed time but I really don't care that much since it's a beater car anyways. Things like the BOV and wastegate are authentic though. I'm using DSM injectors.
