Thank you for that huge boost of confidence you just have just given to any person that has a 7g and wants to boost it.Quote:

14b can be found for under $100 and can boost up to like 20 psi
16g's are a little more expensive but boost more, and they have bigger lag time.( not that much slower than a 14b)
on the dohc 64 you can even go evo 16G, thats how beastly it is!
if you just want to keep cost down, get a 14b, you can change to 16g without modification.
you talking about sleeper and spicy?Quote:

every time the turbo subject comes up i learn alot since every time there is something new......
now i was wondering can you run a turbo set up with out having anykind of a/f controler(safc or something)?
also what down pipe can we use(90 gsx pipe?) posibly?
finaly which 3 guages are mandetory(my guess boost, oil presure, a/f ratio)? EGT is kinda pricy is it really needed?
No because you would never get it to idle with the bigger injectorsQuote:

vac/boost, egt at minimum. Egt is a must because you don't have a knock sensor so you need something to tell you how the engine is doing. If funds permit get a wideband a/f controller with a guage.Quote:

He was but she took the win on the last one we ran like 2 weeks ago. btw info travels pretty fast :lol: .Quote:

As for no fuel control, you could do it, but it wouldnt be fun or safe, and gains wouldnt be near what they would be if you did have a fuel management system.
If anything, at least get an older SAFC.
i heard that a certain person with an auto evo swapped 8g beat a person with a turbo sohc 5spd 7g, a turbo 6spd maxima 3.5L, and an integra boosted - if u wanna see this auto galevo lose.. come to the race against the blue supra running 40psi... at an expressway near uQuote:

2 weeks later... lets go 'one more again'.. tranny fixed... boost turned up a little - maybe it wasn't tuned right cuz after 3 wins.. the 4th run had me breaking up under boost due to fouled out plugs - nevertheless... i got it -
i need to still get some tranny work done.. that way i can run the boost of wat an evo motor should be running or more... but in time.. im not tryna break anything just yet..lol
we already discussed... videos will be taken - that way tgc can view fellow members on the road rather than in pictures.. i like the idea..what do y'all think
Pics are decent, vids would be nice ... but I think you should come pick me up and give me a ride so I can feel the beast 8) (actually that applies to anyone with a turbo galant.) :PQuote:

turbo!!!!
^^ Stop post whoring my thread. :evil:
... Anyway, i've decided that I will be going turbo. Now I just want to see what all I am forgetting in my list of items needed to have the swap go smoothly.
I already have the manifold, o2 housing, fmic, 450cc injectors, gm maft, adjustable fpr, wideband o2 sensor, and all necessary gauges. I am in the process of getting a turbo so i'm not worried about that.
I know that I will need all new gaskets, oil and water lines, custom IC piping and a custom downpipe along with either a 2g oil pan or drilling my stock one. Is there anything else that I am overlooking?
Input would be greatly appreciated especially from those of you that have turboed your g's already.
Well I haven't turboed yet, but Some things you may want to consider is using a 2g eclipse turbo downpipe. That will fit with a turbo setup from a stock eclipse.
Didn't see what type of engine mgmt you were using but don't forget about that like safc2, maf t, etc.
good luck on your turbo build otherwise...
On the oil i belive you can run a sandwhich adapter if you wish....Another thing is if you dont want to sit with your car buy a turbo timer....Will make the turbo last a little longer....Caking oil is a bitch!....It looks like you pretty much got it down....And you may want to get either a bigger fuel pump or do the pump rewire....Just to make sure you have the fuel you need....Good luck!
Good looking out, I forgot to mention that I already rewired the fuel pump. Thanks for the quick responses.
I know it has been a couple of days, but I have two quick questions. One, could you use the knock sensor off of an eclipse, and two, did someone already make a list or could someone make a list of the necessary parts for an sohc turbo build? Thanks
