Has anyone bought an

Drick · November 3rd, 2007, 09:30 PM

Ebay turbo I know they are shit but would it last for a year or two. I dont have the money for a good one right now. I just wanna buy something that will give me some HP for a year or two until I have money to build my stroker. You can get these for like 300 in there and if I bought one how long would it last and would it even work on my car.

Drick · November 3rd, 2007, 09:33 PM

Im saying if I even got a year out of it it would be worth it

hopefully we got some answers from expierence here

Drick · November 3rd, 2007, 09:52 PM

Thats what I was counting on lol

But I think I will just save my money now unless they are a good deal wich i doubt they are. They are problly missing alot

i will just save the money for some Hooker LT's or something

Would there be a noticable difference just by switching to LT's

BWAL · November 3rd, 2007, 09:56 PM

Hooker LT's FTW!

are you talking about the little electric fan "turbos" if so those are ridiculous and could never move enough air to cause boost even on accident

he does make a good point my uncles boss built a v6 mustang with 350 hp using junkyard turbos he ended up spending like around 1000 total i think

it was in fast fords or whatever that magazine is

mattstang · November 3rd, 2007, 10:23 PM

find an old diesel ford 7.3s had garrets and buy some generic bends and get a cooler some clamps etc etc and go to town on it

Drick · November 3rd, 2007, 10:24 PM

cummings
i didnt know they made turbos

MSO · November 3rd, 2007, 10:36 PM

you can use a holset from a cummins if you want.. you'll need a rather hefty intercooler to use its full potential

but yea, JY turbos are ftw

there we go thats the name the guy after me still got it wrong lol

Drick · November 3rd, 2007, 10:46 PM

OK this actually interests me So tell me about this whole exhaust thing I would have to hook to it.

I will admit it that I know nothing abotu turbos N/A ask me but turbos no no

MSO · November 3rd, 2007, 10:51 PM

turn ur header around, im pretty sure that works for you guys

then you'll need a downpipe from the exhaust side of the turbo

the other side of the turbo would need piping that leads to the intercooler, and then into the intake

MSO · November 3rd, 2007, 10:54 PM

here are intercoolers you can get at the junkyard
