I am new to the FC and had a few questions, I've searched and still found no conclusive answers.

1. Can I use a Tommy Makinen Titanium Turbo on the FC with a stock turbo outlet (i.e. will it bolt on?)

2. Can I transfer a set of the front 4 piston calipers to the rear? Will it really help?

Thanks for all your help.

 

1 - No idea

2 - There isn't a point in doin this. The better majority of braking is done by the front. Its not a 50-50 distribution, more like 80-20ish.

 

Never heard of it... is it some Honda or Mitsu turbo application???

No point, waste of time and money... The only reason you want to do that is if you increased the front brake area (6 piston I suppose) to the point that the rears were no longer balanced

 

Is this a troll???

NO.

Yes.

NO.

Thanks, yes the Tommy Makinen Turbo is from the TME Lancer Evo 5, it is thin wall cast with titanium internals and makes boost really low, and sounds really cool.

PS- is there a exhaust manifold that will allow a 16-G or similar turbo?

 

No, you'd need to make a custom one or build an adapter.
