Please tell me that long hose is for the pcv, and that its pre turbo, post amm? and that the hose going to the cold side pipe is for the idle air control valve.
Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
After reading this article, it makes me want to do this to the 90 244 dl I just bought. I have all the turbo parts (exhust mani, garret t3/t4, intercooler +piping, water lines, and oil lines, +their fittings) i need from my 84 244tic, so this looks like something i can do with my 90. I plan on running on 5-6lbs of boost, the motor does have 2xx,xxx on the clock, but has been well taken care of.
Questions for this project of mine ( just like this one lol )
You say you can use the stock N/A injectors, resistors, ecu, and icu, but how well does the N/A computer compensate for the turbo, will this project make my car run like a stumbling idled fool, or will the N/A do okay untill I get the brains from a 740? Also how much is this going to kill my mpg is another thing? Im just worried about how well the N/A computers will do with the turbo, as im looking to keep this as my DD just a bit under the under DD, thanks guys!
Here is mine. Just an example. Excuse the body panels that are missing...
don't use stock injectors. that's a bad idea coupled with bad mpg.
since your car is a 90 you'll have lh 2.4, which for +t car's is about the easiest it gets. go grab turbo and ignition computer from a lh2.4 turbo car and you're set to go.
as for injectors you need the resistor pack,and some green top injectors, which needs to be spliced into one wire (super super easy). on my lh 2.2 car I actually spliced in the resistor pack, and put in my injectors and turbo computer even before my car was turbo. drove it around without a turbo for about 4 months no problemo. then put the turbo on...everything worked, and still works like a charm four years later almost, and 50k later on the whole turbo setup.
so for fueling that's all you have to do . after that go and boost the hell out of your engine.
I hear 850 turbo Injectors are high impemdness and are just a drop in set up for my plan, is this true? I still haven't tried the setup yet due to it being cold as hell!
Yes they will work well... I plan to go this route with my +T.
Whats the most mileage on the motor, anyone has done this mod with; Mine has like some where short of 300,000 no joke lol; It's just had to find another b230 here in OK to build
Ecu and ezk are worth it for sure, but if you are in a pinch you can leave n/a stuff in and run really really low boost.
