turbo charging a malibu
 
this question is for jeff the dude with the turbo sunfire. how much would you charge to make the same turbo kit for my malibu it has the same 2.4lt engine as the sunfire. all i need the whole kit minus the turbo. i plan to get a t3/t4 hybred turbo. or if you can send me instructions on how to make everything. i plan to buy forged pistions and connecting rods so i can boost the car to 15 psi and a 50shot of nos. as you can tell i really dont like to lose. thanks any info is helpful.

you can't turbo that thing. I heard it has EMF chip that limits the amount of air flow through the engine and will cause a total lock up via the ignition.

Dats what Im talking about! the stupid EMF chip I hate that sh!t I came across it like 3 freaken times on 4 free malibu's. I knew something was up with that chip.

See the thing is no one ever freaken turbos the malibu so no ones knows about this stupid thing! Damn it! When I figure out more I'll tell u... I'm still trying to read it on the internet!

If you're referring to me it's Jon....

Not trying to be an ass but this homemadeturbo.com... not willyoumakemykitforme.com You will learn far more by doing this yourself than by having someone else do it for you.

I wouldn't suggest starting off with all that....turbo the engine the way it is, push about 8 psi with adequate fuel mods and then after you blow it up or become comfortable with you're setup...build an engine.

I made a post a long time ago on everything I did https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...87638#msg87638

I did a lot since then, including a different turbo and upgraded the fuel setup some. An fmu will get you to 10psi, i'd also use 35# ford injectors from a mid-late 80's 2.3 ford turbo car, an adjustable accel fuel pressure regualor (made for a corvette) to turn down the base pressure for compensation of the larger injectors and a larger in tank fuel pump. My air fuels looked really good with that setup.

I'm actually selling my whole turbo setup, gauges, charge pipes, manifold, turbo, fuel mods...everything. But someone has already agreed to purchase it and should be buying it next month, sorry.

hello have u guys heard of a ford probe gt turbo pushing 18 psi??

Re:turbo charging a malibu
 
No, can't say that I have.... Then again I've never played with a malibu. The engines are the same, i would think the PCM's have to be almost identical too but there could be something there.

I used a check valve on the map sensor so it bled off the boost, some map's see positive pressure and freak out. Although I've never seen that issue with a 2.4, it seems to be the map on the 2.2 O/C that freaks out.

What does the EMF chip control on that vehicle? and how is it seeing too much air...per the map sensor? If thats the case than a checkvalve should solve the problem.

first of all, heres my sc61.. look at the size difference, the sc61 flows alot of cfms= lots of power, your vj11 flows like 185 cfms = too small for a lawnmower.

a stock probe gt has 330cc injectors, a shitty smic, a bov that cant hold 18 psi without leaking, a shitty 12 vlave dinosaur engine, and its heavy as ----...

i found a probe gt on the net just now on 17 psi with more mods than u im sure..heres the results.
2.2Liter sohc (4Cyl)
Mileage: 30000 miles
Aspiration: turbo-charged[17 psi]
Transmission: 5M
Max (RW/FW)HP: 198.2 @ 5010 rpms
Max (RW/FW)TQ: 262.1 @ 3610 rpms
Estimated Fly Wheel Horsepower: 236 @ 5010 rpms [assuming 16 % drivetrain loss]
Estimated Fly Wheel Torque: 312 @ 3610 rpms [assuming 16 % drivetrain loss]
Room temp / Inlet Temp (F): 0.0 / 85.0

thats less than a stock 5.0 stang everywhere, = your car is gay

a boost controller will do nothing but allow you to blow unefficient ang\d hot air into your car.

18psi on a ihi rhb5 is lkike running 5 psi on my sc61...pathetic.

and btw
