Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

what????everyone sell me those difficult to configure turbos real cheap since they are so worthless. have you tried to use one on a honda yet? i'm loving mine at 8psi and about to tune to 10psi. still have ac too.

turbo it now...why wait unless the engine is newly rebuilt-first oil change like a brand new car.

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

yeah new engine, needs to break in etc, first oil change..

reason i ask is becuase i will need to tune on the dyno which means full WOT 7000rpm runs... when is the car safe to do this? maybe 5000miles?

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

Hell yeah turbo it... My car was basically brand new, and I started buying turbo peices. It will probably void my warrantee, but I don't give a ----!!! I want boost Damnit!!! >:(

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

5000 miles will be more than enough.

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

ya, do your first oil change early though. There will be alot more crap in it then a 50,000mile car. Has to seat the rings and get the cyl walls matched up.. I say do oil change after 500miles, then do another one at 1000, then turbo it.

wait till the warranty expires... my $.02

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

so after 5k miles, you saying more car is ok to redline like hell?

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

even at 1000miles you are ok
but around 500 miles you should bring ur r's up to like 5000 or so then after about 750-1000 bring em to red line

I second........

Re:How long should you wait to turbo for new car?
 

---- that, if it fucks up again, put your stock ---- on again and get another new engine, again and again and again
