Too bad, thanks

 

also out the back of my work, there is a 2.2l turbo motor out of a mitsubishi galant/lancer, does anyone know if this turbo would be suitable?

 

Cheers, Rob

Hi awesome thread!! I'm looking to turbo my 4k in my KE70 wagon. I was thinking about using the injection setup from a Honda City Turbo. I would have to fabricate a custom intake plenum and custom exhaust manifold which wouldn't be a problem. Does anyone have any comments on using the injection setup?

Oh my god!!!! and some people think that my setup is "agricultural"!!!!!

atleast he's done the fuel system the right way with the rising rate reg!

 

 

Slideways32, reckon you'd be better off trying to find a k-series efi setup for around $150 rather than trying to adapt the shitty.....sorry city efi. you're still obviously going to need the ecu etc to run it, but rather than having to make all new plenums, manifolds etc, it will just bolt straight on!!

who cares that its not pretty. in a ke30, that thing ran in the 14's with an old 3k on 20+ psi. :D he just added a copper head gasket. cost him about a grand all up including car. the guy (jmac) is very cluey on blowthru systems.

 

i've got the fuel system from that car. :)

I had a look at a Datsun L20 Turbo today.

 

Its a blowthrough carby setup and looks well suited for a k motor.

 

Has anyone else seen one of these setups?

No I don't care that it doesn't look pretty, mine didn't used to look real good.

what I meant more by the comment was the use of other bits and piece like the compressor valve etc. kudos for using his brain. :P

 

and 14's on 20+psi!!!!! :dance: Has it had any internal work done!!??

Hi,

With those turbo fittings some one wanted info about turbos in a certain rage will have the same bearing housing size so the oil fittings and snail shell housings will fit it. So all you need to do is go to a turbo shop as for an oil fitting off any turbo with that size bearing housing. As turbos come with a bearing housing up to a certain compressor size when the comp gets to big for thrust bearing to handle they go to larger bearing housing with bigger bearing then repeat.

 

For a turbo I have with a small 3 inch compressor inlet diameter I have the mid sized compressor for my bearing housing so I use a few different parts on mine eg oil drain as on some applications the oil drain for my housing had a few neat tight bends it in and saved me bending it to fit the oil lines. So I bough it and not the original to fit.

 

Also for the oil inlet my turbo had a BSP thread so go to ur local nuts and bolts and get a 1$ fitting to fit. I do this run 110PSI turbo oil pressure no leaks and a LOT cheaper than the fitting from mack or someone..lol

 

cameron

Wait...you run 110psi of oil through your turbo?

What would the best carby be to use for this setup?
