Having never dealt with turbos, I was wondering if any body knows of a kit that would work with my 250ci with minor modifications.
That's really interesting. How does it oil/ return oil?STS makes rear mount turbo kits for 4.0 to 5.0 liter engines using a 59mm turbocharger.
STS1000
Oil is still supplied by the engine but is returned with a pump.That's really interesting. How does it oil/ return oil?
Seems lag would be relatively long.
Big horsepower and cheap for sure.Big horsepower, cheap, or easy. You get to pick two.
Then it won't be easy.Big horsepower and cheap for sure.
Fair enough. I don't mind physical difficulty as long as I have the know-how. But I don't.Then it won't be easy.
I'm no turbo expert either. You can learn and figure it out, I'm sure. That's part of what prevents everything from being easy. I do all my own work except for machining, so I'm into the sweat equity too. I enjoy it.Fair enough. I don't mind physical difficulty as long as I have the know-how. But I don't.
Any opportunity to whip this pic out hey, lol.Please do some reading on the subject before you do any thing, A Graham Bell has a good book, forced induction. https://www.amazon.com.au/Forced-Induction-Performance-Tuning-Graham/dp/1859606911
I would also add that a positive displacement blower will give a better all round feel on the street, the level of difficulty is slightly higher, but IMO performance is better. PS the kit shown above will require a LOT of work to get installed and running well.
I have a blown 200 crossflow down here in Australia, its great on the road, I did all the fit up myself, I did have the advantage of being in the Auto trade. I have had turbos and the big cam carby thing, blown is best.View attachment 18975
Yeh I know, I cant help it. LOL I was never a showman, but this gives me a bit of an opportunity to throw it out there. Still, Im very happy with it, especialy with the low cost. "poser"Any opportunity to whip this pic out hey, lol.
Yeah I "like" it every time- cause it is that sharp IMP.Yeh I know, I cant help it. LOL I was never a showman, but this gives me a bit of an opportunity to throw it out there. Still, Im very happy with it, especialy with the low cost. "poser"
I think its great and with an Aussie blower even better.Yeh I know, I cant help it. LOL I was never a showman, but this gives me a bit of an opportunity to throw it out there. Still, Im very happy with it, especialy with the low cost. "poser"
So the question needs to be asked.Big horsepower and cheap for sure.
The eternal l question. The answer, "speed costs money, how fast do you want to go?" i rekon i spent about $3000, and that was mostly for junk, and i did all the work for free. A light car, (around 1300kg) only needs about 200kW to be quite zippy on the road.So the question needs to be asked.
How much power do you want to make?
