'92 eclipse with 31K on the clock, how long as its been sitting in the yard for? No idea where to find a manifold for you

 

[reyscivic]

i work at a jiffy lube and one of the new guys had it when he bought the car brand new. and he is the org owner of the car and its daily driven.

So you have a T25 turbo most likely. You will need the appropriate flange on the manifold. Tthe turbo is probably smaller than something I would use on a Honda, but it will work for a low budget build. Make sure to check for shaft play (in and out, and side to side). The good news is that the turbo will be clocked correctly for your application. You can make it work with some creative piping.

it has an internal waste gate can i bye pass that for a better one?

 

[Matt.]

sure... just gotta completly disconnect it and cover up any holes... But for that turbo... internal will work well enough.

 

[reyscivic]

is there a benifit to a external one???and for a fmu whats good out there thats not to much money?

 

[TypeSwede]

oh my god. no FMU's. please, if you are going to do this, do it right. and if you want an external gate (pointless on a T25) you will need to get someone to weld up the internal wastegate hole.

use an hf manifold, they are cheap and then get you a flange made or make it yourself.

Its the same thing.

 

[fsteclipsegst]

Its the same thing.

lol hell no!

its like night and day!...

DSM guys (me) that have 2g's and are on a budget always get a 14b.... i got a friend that ran a high 12 on his 2g AWD.


back on subject...

get the HF manifold and just get the adaptor plate from Ebay. and LEAVE THE INTERNAL WASTEGATE!

its fine...... leave it alone.

dont forget to get a fuel pump, fpr, injectors, and either a chipped ECU or vafc or sumthing...

been there done that... dont take shortcuts.

 

[reyscivic]

how much boost does the turbo have? with the the stock waste gate?

 

[ryan89crx]

Its the same thing.

uhhh...no

 

[majorahole]

how much boost does the turbo have? with the the stock waste gate?

stock wastegate is usually around 8psi, some have expierienced less, some (like myuself) have had more.

 

[Matt.]

I thought a 14b had a t25 flange?
