galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

hey people their this guy i know he got a galant vr4 using 16 g turbo and he say he run 23 psi and12.3 1/4 mile and his car basicly stock is this true ? stock can handle up to 23 psi ? damn that crazy

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

ive seen other dsms run that much, so yea, i can believe it.

Mitsubishi 4g63 turbo engines can take alot of abuse.They can handle up to 400-425hp with stock internals, this is on a first gen 6 bolt engine though. The later engines are somewhat weaker.

Bullshit, simple enough.

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

the motor can take it, but he still might be lying

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

It's possible to do it, yes. But that ETA still seems off, maybe he's a worse driver then I'm thinking.

The early 90 VR4s are damn good boosters. Very similar motor to the Eclipse isn't it?

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

it is an eclipse motor, and its a heavy car

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

Is it an RS motor or the actual turbo engine without a turbo?
I can see that being very feasible, if they built the coolant channels all the same and kept the oil flows the same.

galant vr-4s are turbo, and yes they have the same 4g63 as the 1st gen eclipses

Re:galant VR4 run 23 psi
 

yup, he's probably not lying. the earlier 4g63's can take a lot of abuse. the 2nd gens limit out at around 450whp, the first gen 6 bolts can make a little bit more power. if he's got a big 16g and a few key supporting mods he could easily be in the low-mid 12's w/ some good ass driving..
