How Turbos work ,the math and tech behind it.

Exactly!!!! Hence it not really being worth while IMO!

But it can be done!

I say don't be cheap and destroy the car, grab a 1.6i head and larger pistons and get the block bored. It'll be quick

Maybe some of the kombi pistons? Like the 2.3l, could take it to around 1.8i but a quick revver.

Yeah Dont be cheap.

Get yourself the following items

1600 16V head.
Arias or Wiseco L/C Pistons
set of 550cc injectors
High flow Fuel Pump
Have a custom Intake Plenum Made
Make a custom Turbo Manifold
Get yourslelf a Full 63MM Stainless steel Exhaust.
Gotech Pro Management
Turbonettics T3/T4 Turbo
Turbonettics Evolution RaceGate- Waste Gate
HKS Super Sequential Dumpvalve SSQV
Incar Boost Controller
Decent intercooler

That's what I did and check my smile

THen you would be styling

Dont play games, do it proper

I think the pistons are overkill

The exhaust isn't dire
Management, well whatever your tuner can do properly

I've ALWAYS loved Netics.

Stop the crude insults and just accept that none of these people care for your opinion on this subject.

NO-U

But you're still wrong about the use of inter-coolers. And btw. not all cars use oil to cool their pistons.

SBSP · Post by **SBSP** » 15 May 2008, 15:45

Fag!!!

Bit offensive there

I34z1k is no fag.

At least he gives relevant info worth something

And not come with Oil Inter coolers and bragg about compression ratio of 13:1.

LOL

You wont think pistons are overkill once you start pushing cast pistons through the block. 3 times

INcar Boost controller LOL you say?
Setting the boost while driving has saved me from a PK a couple of times. Damn Rotary engines.

Wow, did someone have to start make personal attacks to make him feel better?

Think what you want dude. I haven't seen your message as it has been editted, but I can guess.

Dude, I have proven once again, that you are not as smart as you like to think you are. I won't speak about a topic if I am not sure about myself. I know the limits of my knowledge about this topic, so I only comment when I am certain of something. You're claims and comments have been far from the truth so rather just keep them to yourself as it is obvious that nobody here cares what you think.

SBSP, what's your budget? You sure you want to turbo? You will have major heating issues as the 8valves are mostly U flow, which means intake + exhaust is on the same side. Most turbo'd cars are crossflow as it gives more space and better cooling for the turbo.

@ Map, I'm saying for his application bud

Forged pistons + rods are overkill for what he wants and the in car boost controller will just be abused

LOL @ the pk

about 2 seconds later he leaves a 30meter long set of snakelike treadmarks for me to follow 8O

Turns out to be a 13B Turbo inside that thing 8O

A Great tuner told me once.

Your motor is only as strong as the bolts holding it down

Post by **maxxis** » 15 May 2008, 16:20

@Maps.

I need go good tuner in the Randburg or Northern Joburg area?

Snails in Honeydew? Just need to get the Civic tuned up and valves set.

Don't have anything with me or a garage to do it in.

Hmmm. You could Try Turbo Boost Tech, The guy I work with usually is currently swamped with work, THe quickest even I can get my car in, is about 3 months from now 8O

I have a buddy who owned a GX with a 13B. Makes for an interesting ride, but damn, don't even think about putting on the brakes- what brakes?? The funniest for me was the way he modded the car. He stuck a Tiburon wing on the boot, and had the Cone stick out the bonnet. Three weeks later we counted at least three different cars (two of them GX's) with the same mods. Just different paint schemes.

Same buddy who then swapped that GX for the Golf (previous post) which he then swapped for one of those 1979 left-hand drive RX7's. With a carb and a turbo. So I know for a fact that you can turbo a carb motor. He mentioned two methods- push-through (force through) or a suck-through method. Dunno which he used on the RX7 though.
