does anyone know how well a 7m n/a car will work if i turbo it. i have a ct26 and a factory manifold getting an intercooler and piping soon and seeing if anyone has done this before for and can tell me any expected issues/problems with the conversoin.

thanks :cheers:

ok got everything i need eccept the knolage of it working or not so if anyone could please tell me any results, if it was ever atempted before.

thanks:cheers:

So you have the extra oil lines and egr plates???

It'll cost you the same as doing a gte engine swap.

make sure you look at your fuel system also and realise your compression ratio is higher so a metal head gasket and arp hardware is advised hell just go 1jz or 7mgte swap a lot less agravation

i have: a comitic 2.0mm h/g, arp head studs, 4an braded stainless for the oil pressure, 6an for the return, 6an for the coolent, the manifold, fresh rebuilt ct26, front mount and 2-1/2" piping, tial bov, and tons of check vaulves. and why the hell would i need egr plates... irelivent because i made them of 1/16 aluminum plate. im getting an areomotive fpr. once we mock it up we will make a down pipe of 2-1/2" flaring at a 30 degrees to a 3" down to a 3" exaust y'ing of to 2 2-1/2" side pipes made of manderal bent piping. I just need info of how the ecu will react to a higher air flow... and if i will need to get larger injectors to run low boost (about 6lbs) if i bump the feul pressure to about 60lbs with a 1 to 1 rise. The factury injectors are either 360 or 380cc injectors. i fugure if i hook it up and pull the timing to bout -5 or 10 degrees with the factory safe gaurd pulling on the happening of knock it should be a good enough set up to prevent pre-det. by the way the head is ported .075" over on the intake and .055" on the exaust. if wort comes to worst i have an 88' turbo i will just put the ecu and wiring harnis in along with the coil packs and extra knock senscor... no biggy, and i dont want to lower my compression because my uncle has a 526ci mont carlo with 14.5:1 compression and runs hes blower at 16lbs (13% load rate) and makes around 4000hp and runs 5.60's in a 1/4 in the high 230's to low 240's mph. my brother and i have a business "Lethal Addiction Racing" with all the machenery we could ever need; which makes my life easier.

if anyone has attempted this before can you please tell me what the he ll the ecu will think.

It'll probably think WTF when it gets all the sensor readings. Especially if the air flow or density sensor is before the turbo. I would recommend reflashing the ecu to a 7mgte program and fine tune it from there. Just my $.02.
