need some 14g info. wastegate setting...

hey guys,

could someone give me some specs on the 14g turbo that came in the eclipse. mainly what is the stock wastegate setting?

thanks.

Are you asking about the 14b or the 13g, there is no 14g. ;) 13g came in 1g Autos, and 14b came in 1g manuals. The 14b has a 9 psi actuator, and stock boost on the 1g is 11 psi.

wops, 14b it is.. :)
.. so its 9psi? is there any way to bring that down to 6-7psi? im considering using the turbo for a custom project.

thanks.

*shakes head* what kind of car are you using it on? 6-7 psi is a joke. if you're going to run that low you might as well get a super charger or just not get a turbo. this is of course my opinion... so you don't have to listen to it. the 14b isn't that big of a turbo and I doubt that whatever you're running it on will have trouble taking 9 psi... unless you're turboing a moped

Turbo a go-cart! :D

If you want a little less than a stock 14b, use a T25 or 13g. I don't know how you would change the actuator without replacing it. No DSM company would bother making one, so it would be custom is my guess.

I believe the t25 has a 6-7 psi actuator. With some creative bracketry it may fit on a 14b, who knows. Or you could just use the t25. If this is for a 2 liter or smaller the t25 will be very efficient at 6-7 psi (its good to 15 or so on that displacement) and will spool very fast. The 14b would spool well to, but then youre using a 25 psi turbo in a 6 psi application.... BOth turbos use the same manifold and O2 housing/down pipe. But the compressor outlet is very different (and oil feed lines). Odds are the t25 will be easier to work with in that repsect.

Turbo a go-cart! :D

hey who took my idea... lol but i really am making one! i made a go-cart with a Ski-doo 440cc snowmobile motor last summer and that fucker hauled ass! now this summer i want to turbo it! :iceslolan

the plan is to put it on a ka24e nissan motor. obviously 2.4 litter. i was thinking that the compromise between larger displacement and lower boost might work. im noot looking for high power numbers, just a little more. if i run it at stock boost on stock parts, things will blow... i know it for a fact.

and opinions are welcome, as long as they have reasoning behind them :)

thanks guys.

sorry to get off topic but i have to post this up! since we were talking about turbo go carts... this thing would be tight as hell even tho its a scooter!!

That thing is awesome!!!
I think I would be scared to drive that :(

that is sweet. i also saw some vids of a gocart doing some serious burnouts and picking the front end of the ground... now thats power :)

anyhow, back to the topic :)

fuckin A that thing is SIIIIC!!!! intercooler and everything. i wonder if it has wheelie bars, and a parachute!!! LOLOL

back on topic, i think you are going to either blow your engine up because a lack of the will to do it right and strengthen everything internaly. exhaust all other options of upgrades and then boost that shit. :)
