Non-turbo turboed track time

nates6969 · #1 10-28-2006, 01:49 AM

Hey guys so I turboed my 91 non turbo talon 4 or 5 months ago, running a totally stock tsi setup with 9:1 non turbo pistons. The other day we went to the track and ran some runs. On 9 psi I pulled off 14.4s at 99mph. it was so cold out that I kept spinning through 1st and 2nd, but I thought it was still pretty good seeing a non turbo talon there was running 18s. I wanted to run way more boost seeing as I wasnt knocking at all but my boost controller was being a pain and not working right. does anybody else out there with a nonturbo to turbo setup have any good times to brag about? Im curious to see what the NT motors have in em.

Well i dont have the video link but i believe it was on youtube and there was a talon with a turbo 420A that was running 12s without the slicks. Im highly interested in turbo-ing my talon just looking for the sacraficial donor turbo car

theres a guy near where i live who has an eclipse rs-t. he just put a 60trim in. its running pretty bad, because hes having tuning problems. he had an evo 16g before, with 550's and daily driving boost at 18. i think he easily ran 13s then, when he gets his tuning issues straightend out, i think he'll be in the 11s.

wow thats very impressive! ya the main thing holding me back now is my fuel pump, running out of juice around 6200. I plan on replacing that pretty soon. So was the rs-t a 420a or a 4g63? Ive seen the 420as do some impressive times however I would imagion the 4g63nts to be a better motor. I hate people that tell me I can't put boost to my motor! Sure these internals were never meant for boost however the 9:1 pistons were designed with the exact same material properties as the 7.8:1 pistons, only difference is higher compression. therefore just run a bit lower boost thus lowering the internal compression ratio.

he has a 4g63. and something i didnt mention before is that this guy basically rebuilt a 6 bolt and put it in his 98 eclipse. isnt the 420a an automatic? i think when i replied to this thread i thouhgt you just hda a stock 5 speed 4g63 with a turbo addded on. yeah he rebuiolt it with pistons and connecteing rodds and all that goods studff. i think

420a automatics? No, mine's manual.

nates6969 · #7 10-29-2006, 01:06 AM

no a 420a is the motor they put in the 95+ N/T DSMs. Its the same motor they put in the neon. Its pretty sad actually that theyd do that to a dsm although w/ turbo they pack some punch

Wholly god that's a huge turbo for a RS. No wonder he's having tuning issues.

well he has a built 6-bolt. i think its alright. and when i first saw this post and oddly enough everytime after that, i was buzzing everytime, and didnt really get the question. with a clear head i tell you this... its basically just a rs shell. the motor is a built 4g63 6 bolt.

I don't get it. So he swapped the 420a out for a 4g63? Or what? Because if he did then he should make a writeup so we can finally give something to all the newbs that ask "the question"

I agree... Those are some pretty good times on your 420a there nates6969. What else does it have? Built internals yet or is the 9:1 stock for n/t's?

eclipsed at 3am · #13 10-29-2006, 09:47 PM

theres writeups for 4g63 6bolt swaps all over.

gthompson97 · #14 10-29-2006, 09:52 PM

Dude I know that, but do you not realize that the RS comes with a 420a motor which is opposite of the 4g63. And if he swapped a 4g63 into a RS, then there should be some writeup because there aren't many of those around, and there are NO writeups for it and millions of noobs that ask the question.

maybe it was a gs?
