im been wondering how to make my turbo spool faster, so i been searching a lot and all i find is junk. some say to port my exhaust inlet some say not to do it. other say so upgrade to bigger exhaust piping....... its confusing..
has anyone here actually tried doing something like that and notice any good results? i ask this because my turbo starts spooling at 3000RPM and i reach full boost (11psi) at around 3,800 rpm. i would like to reach full boost way before that.... i got a generic t3t4 .57 trim and i believe the exhaust side is .63 on my 94 gt, internal waste-gate w/ manual boost controller, 2 1/2" exhaust piping all help is appreciated |

Remove fuel + add ignition timing = quicker spool.

= BOOM! add a 25 shot of nitrous, that will make you spool much faster This is the most realistic advice so far to work with what you have. Getting a smaller turbo as stated by PhoenixTech is the best advice. A turbo boosting 11psi at 3800rpm isnt what you want unless youre using and upgraded valve train and bottom end. Using that big of a turbo youre really taking away from the fun that this car can be with a snail. Things you can TRY to do? get a larger downpipe and do a cutout right after it, make an intake for you compressor where it can get colder air (theoretically better efficiency means faster spool), a better exhaust manifold (equal length tubular maniflold) will net you better spool time, but all of that is minimal, youll get maybe 200rpm out of all that money. Coating everything in ceramic or heatwrapping everything, using a compressor blanket etc is also beneficial... higher temperatures mean faster exhaust gas velocities. Smaller turbo. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
