my friend just upgraded his turbo on his 04 wrx...he's wanting to GIVE me his stock turbo but i feel bad if i took it...i offered him $50 so i'd feel better but my question is will it work for honda's d or b series engines? i wanna boost this 93 dx hatch i want to buy but will it be worth it boosting a dx?

im guessing it will work. wrx turbos usually go for around 100-200 on nasioc and clubwrx. So even if you dont use it take it and sell it. =)

just do your piping right and s**t, and it will all work out..

your little honda engine is a tad smaller than the wrx, i agree that your going to have lag. its going to be a totally custom job installing it. its completely possible though and probably reliable if you take your time building the setup.

im clueless in what u just said but imma try and answer it, im turbo illiterate...stock turbo specs for the wrx i dont know but he upgraded to what i think is called a suprazilla turbo? i might be wrong..

wrx run td04-13t, very similar to the td04-13gs but different turbine housing. Oh and they are made by mistu :lol:

i was under the impression the td04l-13g is the wrx turbo

im running it on my y7/y8 mini-me. its a quick spool torque monster thats perfect for stock D's

there's info and pics of my setup on my site:

Any turbo is going to have some lag on a B-series motor, especially a 1.6L. A WRX turbo however, would be an ideal turbo. They are quick spooling, not oversized, don't have an outragious lb/min rating (probably between 25-30 is my guess), so lag shouldn't be very noticable even if it was on a D16.

If the stock WRX turbo is comparable to a TD04-13G, it's going to spool fast on just about anything. Automotive wise, the 13G is the second smallest turbo Mitsu produces (only topped by the stock 2G DSM T-25 aka: T-2small). A 13G is quite a bit smaller than a stock TD05-14B for the 1G DSM, which flows right around 30lb/min. Lots of people have used 14B's on boosted Honda apps with great results.

If you want a quick spooling turbo, OEM stock is the way to go. WRX, 14B/T-25 DSM, K-03 VW, Ford, ect... This turbo sounds like it would do just fine on a stock internal, street driven Honda.

common misconception, there was a huge thread on this over on nasioc maybe a year ago. It is a 13t VERY similar to the 13g. Pretty much the same thing though...
