what single turbo would match the 2 stock vr4 turbos?

[VR43000GT]

Quick question, why are you going to all the trouble to go to a single turbo? There is really no reason for it at all.

stock vr4 hardware looks like shit and is hard to get to .
plus if I have one turbo away from the engine it will stay alot cooler with my cowl hood

I realize beauty is all opinion, but you can get prettymuch anything under the hood in chrome or powdercoated form...from intercooler and intake plumbing to valvecovers and manifolds. And it's not that hard to get really. Just look on a partout thread on 3si.

I dont think you have a clue.

Have you ever seen underhood pictures of single turbo 3s's? They are just as crowded as a TT.

If you think parts are hard to get to, how do you think you are going to pull off a single turbo conversion?

[farner85]

I meant hard to get to to service .not hard to come by.
I hear exaughst leaks hapen alot around
gasket areas with any turbos on any vehicle.
I just want to put one one the left hand side of my motor I just bought a
nice fiberglass hood with air induction and If the turbo is away from the engine it should stay alot cooler than two hugging the motor.

What I was saying is if you think its difficult to get to parts service parts then why do you think you can pull off something as difficult as a single turbo conversion?

How the hell are you going to put a turbo on the left side of the engine? There is no room.

Also exhaust leaks are only going to happen with age. Its not something that is going to happen once a year. I had a turbo DSM and had the turbo off about 6 times, reusing the gasket every time and never had a leak.

Stick with the twins. Doing a single conversion is not for the faint of heart. There is a lot of planning needed and many modifications required to make it work.

well theres plenty of room on the left hand side and thats were its going to go!
fab work isent a problem I have a full shop and a auto salvage yard 500+ wrecks and a few vr4s for parts !
I dont know alot about turbos just the basics that why Im asking!
what single turbo would match the stock twins without tunning
a stock vr4 computer air /fuel mixture

[Stealthee]

People go single to go big. THere is no point in going single to match stock TT's airflow. It will be a huge waste of resources.

Again there is NO ROOM on the left hand side. The left side is the drivers side.

Theres a reason single turbo 3000GT's are few and far between.

Keep it TT.

[farner85]

ok sorry right side then
