Re: INSTALLING a t3/t4 turbo on my eclipse

umm... hmmm

where do I start with this. It sounds like your car is stock and you are putting on a huge turbo.

First I would like to know what have you done with this car already.

Second your stock injectors are not going to be able to keep up with this turbo anyway, if that you are going to need an AFC to compensate with the larger injectors. also bigger fuel pump
In general, I believe you are going to need a lot of supporting mods for this turbo. IMO

Here is an article that I believe you should read. It has given me inspiration for my car, (car in story is a 2g however, I have a 1g GSX but still the point is the same) and it just shows you don't need a lot of supporting mods to get the car running fast. tune every part out.

http://www.roadraceengineering.com/marc-tuninginfo.htm

READ THE WHOLE THING. he got his car into the 11 seconds range which is pretty impressive with as few mods as he has and full weight of the car

Spend your money in other places first before a big turbo.
A turbo that you might want to start out on would be a Evo 3 16g. bolts right into place of everything and is larger then the 14b. Plus you will want a clutch

Also, this looks like a description from an Ebay knockoff kit. I would never trust one of the turbos in these kits. I believe all the other parts to be ok to use but the turbos are something not to trust from these companies.

Re: INSTALLING a t3/t4 turbo on my eclipse

I wouldn't purchase that kit if someone PAID me to put it on my car. The manifold is most likely a POS, the turbo is probably glued together like most of the other knockoff ebay turbos, the wastegate and bov are most likely knockoffs and probably won't work either. My , wait and do some reading, it sounds like you need a little bit more knowlegede before you start slapping on some big turbo.

My suggestion is to buy a T67 for about 500 bucks and run 30psi daily on it.

Sweet mother... You have a lot of learning to do. Read, read, read! I cannot emphasize this enough.
