Turbo last?

I was thinking i would upgrade to a new turbo and intercooler last.

Get the exhuast n intake manifolds, injectors, fuel pump, n all that stuff n then nitrous. Last do the turbo. I wanna do this becuase i want the money for nitrous. Purging is so nice!

I worked with my cousin on his supra adding nitrous. Kinda wanna show all the ricers i know around here wut a fast car really is...(nitrous in mind)

Would this be a good idea?

Re: Turbo last?

if i were u... i would do the turbo first intersooler second and the last thing would be NOS...but that is just me... if u wanna show off infront of frens i think a good BOV sound is enough pppppssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh or add a pimping jl w7 if u intend to setup a streo system later u can also follow this link to see the steps to increase the power without harming the engine ..

nitrous is dangerous unless you know what your doin... like how to tune your car for it, i.e. timing, the fuel system, when to spray... some other little stuff that can fuck up your engine in the long run, i would suggest getting a MBC, Exhaust, then upgrade to hard IC pipes, fuel upgrade, FMIC, then upgrade turbo, and if that still isnt enough power, a 50-75 ZEX wet kit!

Re: Turbo last?

Running nitrous along with turbo is risky business if you dont fully understand how all this works. Especially on a turbo that likes to blow hot air and cuase knock at nearly stock boost levels. The only time I think nitrous makes sense on a DSM is when you are running the largest turbo you can still spool, and you still want more power. MAgnus ran 10.06 with not nitrous, then a 9.6 with it. I'm not too impressed with nitrous in that example 400 whp isnt hard to do with just a turbo. You just have to know what you are doing. If you dont know what you are doing, nitrous isnt going to help you anyway Your call though.

Re: Turbo last?

your 'simple sentence' was incoherent, and also "having nitrous for purging" is backwards thinking.

This had nothing ta do with the question, bringing everyone sorta off. I know a good deal about nitrous n how it works.

To be more specific, yes iam planning to have about 400 w/ no nitrous. I was just hoping ta get nitrous sooner (for a little show, not just the go). Basically i was thinking just wut 95eclipse-gsx said the first time, that there would be to much power for the intercooler n turbo (thanx for tellin me wut i was thinking, lol).

95 GSXracer do you know?

Re: Turbo last?

i do know that "wut" and "ta" are ont english words. But unfortunately, while I do know a god deal about how nitrous works, I have never run it personally or on a car I have worked on. So I will refrain from commenting. I will just stress again that DSMs can go very fast without it, and turbo systems are complex enough on thier own Wish I could help more.

how did it not have anything to do with the question? you asked if that was a good idea, and i replyed by saying get the nitrous last since its dangerous if you dont know what you are doin to run it with a turbo!!! just like Kevin said, if your goin to use nitrous with a turbo, use it just to spool it up like i do, or you have a really good chance a recking something! i have a 20g on an RS thats the only reason i use nitrous! and since you say you know a good deal about nitrous, tell me how you would run it... i'm saying this cause if YOU (not your cousin!) have never put nitrous on a turbo car and tuned it before i suggest you do that last! and have many people inspect it! i took my car to 3 shops just to make sure everything was correct before i even tried it to see if it works, cause i was too afraid to screw something up...

I would just like to add that while i dont know much about all this, i have read that nitrous is the best bang for the buck in terms of hp vs. $. And w/ the stoutness of the 4g63 it seems like it could take a beating and keep on going. And isnt nitrous just adding basically colder/denser air in the chamber? wouldnt that help the hot turbo air thing? Im still learning so feel free to disregard everything thats nonsense.
