Turbos On A V6

myPONYisHARD · December 14th, 2007, 11:57 AM

i have a v6 3.9 and im going twin, can i use the stock turbo off an 02 wrx? also what size would complement it. i know that its fairly small. i dont have the eexact specs of it yet.

you can use any turbo , it just might take some work i believe

Drgnracin72 · December 14th, 2007, 01:38 PM

you dont want to put too big of a turbo as youll have to wait for boost to build which isnt fun. youll need to do some reasearch and see what people are having the most succes with. you want a nice balance of boost and street manners, ie: not waiting for the boost to come one. there no reason for you to run a 77mm turbo on a v6 stang unless its arace car, or your only racing it,

Have you ever seen the stock KKK turbo from a 1.8t VW?

The inlet is MAYBE as big as a silver dollar.

COULD you make it fit and get the car to run with it on there? Yeah, probably, but I wouldn't advise it.

a turbo can be make to work on any car the thing is the size..

u will not get any h.p out of a lil one (well yes u will but not a big thing)

a really big one will take some time to spool up

ask torres

becasue of different exhaust flanges, and the exhuast side may be way to small or way to big

TurboLX · December 15th, 2007, 12:36 AM

What are you stupid?

are you gonna run a tiny 40mm turbo on your car? hell no you blow the fawking thing apart

you gonna run a 90mm?

hell no cuz that shit will never spool

TurboLX · December 15th, 2007, 12:38 AM

not to mention you cant run a little flange nor a big one cuz then your fawking up the whole flow of it

ESG-642T · December 15th, 2007, 12:46 AM

He never said it would be effective, he said you CAN USE ANY. which is true, be it a 40mm that blows apart in 5min, or a 108mm that doesn't spool till tomorrow. He never said it was a smart idea!

TurboLX · December 15th, 2007, 01:06 AM

well then good luck to you... it's pointless, this shit is becoming more of a science then a hobby... i think Torres will agree

itschristorres8 · December 15th, 2007, 01:54 AM

turbo size has deffinitly come down to a science
its kinda rediculous
you have to judge the car by its power and exhaust flow before you can even think of a/r size then a turbo and what exhaust flange you should use
then your wastegate if you should go big or small or wait

luckily most cars people have already tried turbo'ing ALOT so V8 mustangs have it pretty easy with turbo size, i'd say twin v6s and single turbo 4cylinders have a lil more trouble picking the RIGHT turbos

what kinda turbo comes out of the wrx sti?
i thought all those cars that came stock with turbo had TINY turbos. at the car show audi, mini, all them cars had like a -T1 flange on there lol with like a 2mm turbo

myPONYisHARD · December 16th, 2007, 05:10 PM

haha its off an 02 so its only a wrx turbo. i will be using it. my question was what other size turbo would compliment it. (like a larger t4?)

twin t4

t3s for a v6 twin set up would be ideal
single deffinitly t4

El_Cangri · December 17th, 2007, 01:30 AM

wait u want 2 t4? thats like wayyyyyy to much..

or ur talking about a small wrx turbo and a t4? set up in sequential?

meh just get a t4 and call it done

myPONYisHARD · December 17th, 2007, 09:02 PM

a small wrx and a larger

MWWarlord · December 17th, 2007, 09:37 PM

I'm planning on a TT down the road as well. I was thinking I would go with a t2 and a t3 set up in sequential. That way I would get good boost through the whole power curve, and the t2 would spool pretty quick. How does that sound to everyone? hey chris do you think 2 t3's would be better?
