Turbo Sizing Offer by Scootin

Well, since it seems to me that many people dispute the sizing for turbochargers on the various Mitsu engines, I've decided to try and be useful. If you want to figure out what turbo is best for your application, post up your engine size, performance modifications (to the extent of "heavy engine mods" or "not so heavy engine mods"), number of cylinders, and amount of boost you want to run. It would help greatly if you post up a few ideas for which turbo you want to run so it will be easier on me to search for compressor maps. Also, post up your AIM s/n so I can get a hold of you if I need to ask you some questions.
btw, if there are a bunch of posts in here, look through before asking me to size your turbo to make sure someone didn't already ask for the same sizing. Eventually, I'll put together a list that will have the various engines and boost pressures and the turbo you should run for each. Hope this helps somebody.

Just to help.

good idea scootin :wink:

This ain't exactly Quantum Mechanics....

Just reading, is this a typo?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>Example: a boost gauge reads 0 psi before it is hooked up. Hook it up, boost the car, and it reads 17 psi. 17 psi is the gauge pressure, the absolute pressure at sea level is 14.7 + 19 = 33.7.</div>

Shouldnt it be 14.7 + 17 = 31.7? WHere did the 19 suddenly appear from?

4G64(2.4L 4cyl)--7-9lbs--with intake, plugs, wires, high flow cat, muffler

4G64/63 hybrid(2.4L 4cyl)--7-9lbs--with same mods above

fully built 64/63(2.4L 4cyl)--10-16lbs, possibly more--hybrid with same mods

should help most people there

Give me a day or two and I'll run those numbers through.

And yeah, Chikago, I'm fully aware it's not quantum mechanics, but it's beyond the talent range of most people on TGC and I figured I would try to help out.

I retract my earlier statement Scoot to avoid Wrath of Mod.

a 4g64 hybrid motor will have more thatn 2 liters of displacement

The 4g64/63 hybrid you are talking about is, I assume, a 64 block with 63 head(not 63block with 64 SOHC head lol) which is still 2.4L. Now somebody make a crank/rod/piston combo for a stroker 64 package. That would own.
