anybody else?

 

I'm using one similar to it. I have a Garrett T-25 with trims .49 in the compressor side & .48 on the exhaust. I think it will be sufficient on your setup depending on how much boost you want to achieve. That turbo will provide good spool, but may drop off in the higher RPM range.

What are your goals? Money you're willing to spend on this setup?

 

I'm planning for a good 230hp on a b16a stock. Nothing really. Just need to know if its good enough for that power. I got the turbo for like 50 dollars. I don't want to spend anymore money on the setup. All I need to pick up is fuel pump, and oil line kit and ecu w/ basemap tune on crome. What do you think. Just want some inputs on it.

 

I can't guarantee you'll reach that much HP on that turbo. I know for a fact it will make nice power goals though.

For only paying $50, I'd say go for it.

All long as you put yourself on a good tune, I feel you'll be in over 200 HP. Of course you'll have to get it on the dyno to be certain.

I shouldn't say much about the whole ECU tuning, since I'm only running a FMU setup on my automatic Accord. I will say my plugs look the best they've ever looked and have never seen any so clean after 900 miles of around town driving.

I'm only running 8 lbs tops as of right now, but I will say I've had the turbo hit 10 PSI and pop a CEL.

How much boost are you planning on running? Stock internals? Waste gate internal or external?

 

I'm planning on boosting only 7psi maybe to 10psi at the most. I have an external wastegate w/ 7bl spring.
I just want to feel a little boost. I know I'm going to get a tune. WE have a crome tuner in Concord, NC. He did my friends car ls/vtec all motor. He came out with 200 whp. Thats pretty good for stock injectors. I think he charge like 300 flat rate for all day tuning. Thats what my friend thought me. I hope everything goes well.
I just wanted to know alittle about the turbo and what it can do on my motor. Thanks for the information.

 

Good luck on your adventures. Let us know how it turns out, and some pictures in the process.

 

How much hp do you have? Since you are running that setup? What kind of setup?

 

Stock HP, before the turbo upgrade and ---- was 150HP.

I have not had my car put on the dyno yet, because I'm more than likely going to be doing an auto to manual conversion soon. It slips a little on a 2nd to 3rd gear shift.

Everyone on here says my car's transmission will start slipping at around 200-225 WHP, so I'm estimating right in that ballpark.

My setup includes:

94 Accord EX
F22B1 Vtec engine
Garrett T25 turbo
Running about 8 lbs.
Stock injectors
12:1 FMU setup
Check Valve setup
2.5" Exhaust straight through.
Front mount intercooler
2.25" intake charge piping.
