And could it be used in a custom turbo setup for an 00 DX (stock motor)?

And what would a good price on the stock turbo be (18k miles)?

 

somebody gotta be knowin'

 

it small similar to t25 very good spool time etc.

 

Its comparable in size to a grapefruit...

 

its da stinky poo.
id say a t25 is better

 

13b... it was better as a rotary engine than a turbo.

 

my *******..... i donno they are tiny, and they have a cute little headshield on em

 

good deal for 200?

how would it perform compared to a greddy 15g?

 

these are out of an Impreza GF8



STi



$200 would be very cheap

 

well it the turbo is still nice w/low miles i'd pick it up for 200!
aren't they BB too?

 

the turbo from the wrx are IHI ball bearing turbo... compare to a t25

 

i have a stock wrx turbo for sale.......$200 includes shipping to anywhere in the us. i take paypal.

 

good price but i already am talking to a friend about this deal.

bump for anyone else interested though.

are the housings oriented on the wrx turbo so that it would be an easy install or are the oriented different than say the greddy 15g?

If they arent positioned for easy installation on a d16 can the turbo be disassembled so that the housings can be rotated?

Not exactly...its tech. a sleeve bearing...not a true ball bearing ...like a PE 1818 or a PE 1820

 

if using a stock wrx turbo... what flange?... 4 bolt?... 5 bolt?... other?...

 

The turbo that comes on the 02+ American WRX is a Mitsubishi 13G. It also came on the 89-94 automatic turbo DSMs. The Greddy Civic EX turbo kit comes with a 15G turbo, so it is smaller than that. $200 is a bit pricey in my opinion. Check out http://www.dsmtrader.com and get you should be able to find a 14b or t-25 for less than $200

Hey man pass some of that stuff my way. Just as stated Auto 1G DSM's. Aint that bad of a turbo. Usually the only problem with factory turbo's is they are both oil cooled and water cooled. So you have to run coolant lines.

dude water cooled turbos are way more effeicent in disapating heat form the turbo core!
**anyone know what manifold will work?

 

Oh geez. No kidding man, why else do you think factory turbos come like that? I'm not saying that is a problem with the turbo, I am saying trying to hook one up to a Honda or non-turbo vehicle is more challenging.

 

Just to update this so people don't go around thinking its a TD04-13G.. The WRX turbo is a TD04L-13T.

The "T" wheel gets jiggy "uptop", but the TD04L housing makes it spool like crazy.

It will lose a little power up top, but not like the TD04-13G 1G dsm turbos.

factory turbos come like that because people who drive turbo scabs and volvos don't let them idle down and they need to last 200,000 miles. Most people just don't hook up the water lines, which fine do if you idle your car for 45sec after getting the turbo hot. So it's just like any other aftermarket turbo to install.

Oh and for a WRX turbo 100 bucks max. it's even small for your little engine.

 

This topic is 6 months old, I just wanted to correct it for the archives.

 

i'm using the td04L off '02wrx and it's an excellent turbo. running 10psi and it holds to redline, spools quick, and allowed me to keep a/c with my ghetto built kit. they are supposed to be good to 15psi.

So a turbo that produces 227hp in a 2.0L is "too small" for a SOHC 1.6L?

If your goals are realistic and you're using a STOCK motor, you shouldn't be running anything larger than like, a 14B @ 10-12psi anyways.
