Alright well Ive now saved up enough money for a turbo but I do have a few questions before I decide to go in head first. The turbo itself that Im lookin at is a T3/T4 T04E TURBOCHARGER and Ive heard people say you can getaraise in max horse powerare 25 percent. But my real question is will my engine be able totake the abuse and not crap out on me. Its justthe stock2.2L I have a few mods(Intake, exhaust, headers) But I dont wanna be racin that then blow my engine! Its an automatic right now and Imconverting it to a five speed soon. So themain thingis will I still be able to run this and not blow my engine up!

 

Do a leak down test and post the numbers you get.

 

i did my f23 turbo a few weeks ago... no prob so far... stck internals.... AT... 110K on it.... same turbocharger as the one u mention...

 

i almost forgot... it all dpends on the amount of boost u wanna use... i would recommend 6 psi and u can swich to 8 psi whenever u are gonna race... that's pretty safe...

 

Have you looked at the turbine and compressor maps for that turbo? Yes you can through any turbo on you want onto any engine as long as the boost is right, but you put a larger turbo on and then lower the boost to suit the engine and you'll have so much lag and airflow disturbance you will actually lose performance.
