turboing your car

**polaris800** · 8-22-08, 21:34

anyone who has put in a turbo after you put in the turbo how much did it cost to get the car running right?

Pretty much everyone who has turbocharged their 2nd gens story. Mine too.

you have to be way more specific than this. Start out by saying what car and what your goals are first.

Lock or flame will ensue, perhaps ban, or just tell him nicely to search more?

Yet another pointless thread by polaris800.

Whats the asuna dudes website, polaris should probably go there.

To do a proper turbo setup with megasquirt and all the supporting mods is going to cost you at leasy 5K, if you start motor builds upwards of 10K

This topic of turbo charging a non-turbo car has been asked so many times before. Even though there are plenty of threads that show detailed descriptions of how one went about turbo charging, how much what costs, what did work, what didn't, and anything you can think of.

This thread is pointless because the answer to your question could be easily found using key words in the search feature. As shown in Turk's post above.

Just quit while you're ahead man.. haha

wtf, I mean WTF is a "stage 3.14159 clutch" ???

what are the friction materials on the disk?
sprung, unsprung?
stiff springs, stock springs?
pucked non pucked?
how many pucks?
Pressure plate? pull? push? pressure?
multi plate?
diameter?

I'm thinking to accurately describe your clutch in stages you would need at least 47.9123456938493 different stages of clutch system in the catalog.

Speaking of which, next week I *may* upgrade to a stage 2.718 BOV hybrid to aid in exhaust tone :-)

Fred.

On a more serious note (not that PI and E aren't serious, but...) Stealths figures are pretty much perfect for someone like yourself. If on the other hand you have a fair idea what you are doing you could do it for a bunch less. I spent maybe 3kus to build my system and I took very few shortcuts and had a very successful result.

This thread is pointless as you have been told already to search the forum for your topics before making far to general of posts. This thread has been done more times than Paris Hilton. This is not a General Automotive topic as it relates to a 2nd Gen model. View the 2nd Gen section, read the Forced Induction threads over and over until the idea is clear. At that point, you can start asking questions.

I hope I don't have to read another thread like this again from you...please.
