Going turbo... i need help completing the list of parts
It's an S5 w/ a street port.
has 3 inch exhast from header back. i need the whole list of parts to grab. stock turbo setup and/or T3/T4 + front mount setup aiming for 320-350whp |
stock turbo won't get you there so you would need something like a T04B-E to get you in that range.
you will also need a standalone, fuel pump upgrade, larger injectors, custom downpipe, T4 manifold, wastegate, upgraded radiator, intercooler and a chunk of time and fabrication skills. you will also need auxiliary injection or run an even larger turbo due to the high compression engine limiting you to about 11-12psi on premium pump gas with that 9.7:1 CR engine. figure out who is going to tune the engine and go with their recommendation for the engine management system. |
i went with an NA to t2 swap. lemme tell ya dude, its a pain in the ass and is expensive. basically, i just went ahead and got a stand alone and bnr stage 4.
|
a hybrid will save a few bucks, sacrifice some response and upper end power. not like a high compression engine would need additional low end response though, probably will be fully spooled in the low 3k range.
|
i have s4 t2 irons, s4t2 housings, and s4 na rotors.
|
i just need turbo/manifolds n shit, the motor is already ready to rock.
|
Turbo swapping is never just slapping on turbo/manifolds n shit..
|
i started out with the same idea of 6 port and bought lot of stuff, but decided to do t2 swap

never underestimate any project or you might wind up broke, homeless and sleeping in a car you have to push around. i know i probably invested at least $7-8k into my TII just to get it up to par to get into the 350-500whp range(i keep it modest around 350 whp to keep it alive and it has never let me down). |
it's street ported and low mileage that's all i know about the motor.. any way to check if it's got turbo irons/rotors without taking it apart?
|
if it has 4 intake ports it is a turbo block, 6 they are non turbo.
no way to tell if the rotors are turbo or non turbo with the engine together. |
