i own a 94st and want to put a turbo on it. the only kit i have found is for the 5sfe engine. does anyone know if there is a difference in the exhaust manifold between the 7afe and 5sfe. what i really want to know is would this work on the 7afe even though its made for the 5sfe? turbo
this is the kit i was looking at. any input will help. |

The 5sfe is not an ideal engine for any kind of forced induction... The compression ratiio is why to high to maintain any level of boost above 0.7 bar.... That and all of the kits I have seen for the 5sfe are above $2000... add that to all of the other parts you will need to make a turbo work on a 5sfe and see any kind of boost above 8lbs is going to cost you around $4000...
Buy a 3sgte motor and do the swap... WAY better results for the price. --------------------  99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |
