I'm finally posting the pics I promised I would have. Info about my turbo kit. I've pieced together my kit which basically consists of parts that would come from the Star Performance Turbo Kit. I brought my car to my buddies shop early morning this is what she looked like. [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp58%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A6459%3Bot1lsi[/img] I was really excited to finally start installing the turbo kit I pulled off the front end with in 5mins. [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp63%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A77557ot1lsi[/img] Once the front end was stripped we bolted on the Star FMIC [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp63%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A77565ot1lsi[/img] Then we removed the stock exhaust header and the best part was trying to remove the downpipe from the cat :rolleyes: . This is when the torch came in handy . We unbolted the oil pan tapped it for the return fitting cleaned it out to get rid of all the shavings(sorry no pics). We installed the Star turbo manifold, Turbonetics T3/T04 Turbocharger(.63AR T3 Hotside with a 50 trim wheel), Deltagate Mark II Wastegate and 2.75" Exhaust Down Pipe. And since I didn't have any gaskets for in between the mani and turbo, and turbo and downpipe my buddy had a sheet of metal which is used to make your own gaskets(not sure what its called)so I traced out flanges and cut out the gaskets. [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp63%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A77577ot1lsi[/img] Removed the oil perssure sensor switch (located at the back of the block its the last sensor closest to the tanny housing) Place a T fitting size is 3/8" NPT in the location of the oil pressure switch and place the pressure switch to the other end and place a fitting at the top that will fit with the braided SS hose that goes to the turbo. (fitting were purchased at Cisco in Mississauga Dixie just north of 401) [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp63%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A7758%3Bot1lsi[/img] Bought the couplings at EuroSpeed (near Dufferin and Dupont) Installed all the piping.

Installed a walbro 255lph fuel pump. Pump is located under the back seats on the passenger side. Was a pretty direct swap with the stock pump(no pics). Placed my FMU 12:1 in between the brake and clutch fluid resorvoir. I had a set of relays there before but relocated them behind the washer fliud reservoir. [img]http://images.snapfish.com/34358%3A5923232%7Ffp45%3Dot%3E232%3C%3D4%3B%3C%3D759%3DXROQDF%3E23237%3B%3A%3A77588ot1lsi[/img] Installed a air filter on the turbo and that is pretty much it. I also installed a boost gauge, A/F gauge, EGT gauge and a greddy auto turbo timer but will post pics of that later on. Here are pics with of the kit completed on my ESi.

Probably not wise to run any more then 8psi on stock internals. Check out 2gnt.com for any answers for questions you may have. Good info there. Another issue with turboing a n/t is the stock axles are weak and its not unheard of them snapping under a given load. You may want to look into some drive shaft shop stage II axles depending how hard you planned on beating on her.

Would a spacer help at all? Or is the starter in the way in reference to the position of the outlet on the manifold? Basically do you need to go left-right or just further out from the motor. A spacer would help you in this case.

I don't believe the starter is in the way as someone on the 2gnt forums has installed a 14b on stock manifold. But has said the a/c would have to be removed. And as for computer as of right now i'm running on the stock computer and at 6psi. I'm planning on installing e-manage soon. Purchased it a while ago just haven't had a chance to install it as of yet hopefully i can get it done this year.

HAHAH 300hp on stock internals and 10psi no way the stock engine can't handle that. Unless he has his fuel and timing tuned to the T even then don't think he will be making 300hp. Pretty much the setup i have can be anywhere from 190whp-220whp at 8psi depending on how well your engine is before you turbo it.

As for the engine... stock it can hold about 330hp at the crank.. the rods start to stretch at this point... with rod and piston replacement.. some people are getting 600+hp out of the engine... stock head (no porting) stock cams.. stock crank, mls head gasket... http://www.allpar.com/mopar/2.html Don't ask how I found that one... Oh and I realize it's about the SOHC, but your weakness is in the block. Wow... they are making sound that my winter beater 420a ESI engine is stronger then my GSXes 4G63... i would never believe that but then I am half way building aturbo kit for mine, FMU and 255 already in, waiting for the mani and the turbo with FMIC etc... to arrive and we shall see how strong that engine really is @ 5-7 PSI with 48 A/R T3 turbo PS: As per picture posted here, it's a mitsu turbo so exhaust housing is on the right, good luck making a DP without melting half things around it, T3 setup (compressor is on the right and exhaust is on the left) is the only safe and easy way of doing it.

have you worked out how much it cost you in total to turbo it? Well I have some great deals with SBR (I got reseller acc) and Ebay addict. I didn't want any too crazy so I got exhaust mani, gauges (AC S7) with pod, oil lines, FMIC, FMIC Piping (great kit for 60 bux, just cut and fit) off ebay and won an auction for $900 T3 turbo for around $350 or so. Total with everything shipped and taxes was like $1500 CAD and I got full stage 2 kit with many extras.
