Garret Turbo.

So my friend pulled this Garret turbo from a 4cylinder Volvo. If I built Custom intake manifolds and all that ****, do you think it would fit on my s4?

maybe with a bit of fabrication, to tell the truth i doubt it will be big enough to support the rotary engine. i'm sure it will work, but efficiently? i doubt it.

Hrmm, Yeah the Turbo is really tiny. Would it spool up enough efficent boost to boost my hp by a decent amount? Well at least for the amount of work I will be fabricating the Intake and exhaust manifold.

smaller=less gains, smaller=faster spooling though but quicker peak HP with less room for improvement. as far as how much of a gain you will see depends on the other mods you do, with a standalone EMS and front mount intercooler you may well see close to a 100HP increase but that is just a guess since no one has actually tried this before.

Well, Let me be the first to put a Garret turbo out of a 4cylinder Volvo (2.2ltre we think) and configure out everything I need. I wonder what i'm going to about all the ECU stuff, If you guys have any tips please let me know.

you could probably talk to IntegraLS and mimic the setup the supercharged n/a guys used with the megasquirt.

It's a T3.
It's too small for a 13B.
