i want to turbo my 7A-FE can anyone tell me how and what parts are needed. i went to jgstools.com and they had alot of parts listed
but i want the cheapest, best value i can find, so what type of parts would be in this "turbo". i also found sum cheap intercoolers, turbos, and a Bosch bypass valve on ebay(is that a good idea?). oh and do i need a new "turbo back" exhaust system. i relize i will need a new fuel pump too. also for the intercooler piping $299 seems alot for me can't i just got to the hardware store and buy quater inch steel tubing and bend it myself with a pipe bender? -------------------- |

yeah true. it's just, i'm really not a strong believer in building a turbo Econo-engine...just doesn't seem right...that same 180-200hp out of a 4age or somethin like that would be a lot more potent. higher revs, more quality power.
-John- edit: and about the standards and all, nah, not that high, if i had high standards i woulda just called the person dumb in my first reply, and said the ONLY way to go would be the 3sgte...but i dont believe that, i realize the 7afe can be a good turbo motor, it just takes A LOT. not just a turbo kit and intercooler and little fuel system. i myself plan on the 4agze route, just cause i, like you, aren't into the all out drag car, i just want more pep in the twisties, and that LSD tranny..also, somethin like the 3sgte would be way too much power for a FF platform IMO, but that's a whole nother story. -------------------- |
