semi custom turbo piece together
 

In consideration of a T3/04B Hybrid turbo whats the cheapest you think you could get a whole turbo setup doing it part by part vs a whole package?

RE: semi custom turbo piece together
 

mmm you could probably get a package with most of the big parts that you will need for under a thousand, but i think you could do the whole thing for under 700 if you do it piece by piece and do it right.

the t3/04b hybrid by itself is around 700 lol usually safer not to go used on a turbo but piping and an inner cooler and hoses and what not yeah i can see those being used

around $2k.

Example of custom setup on stock motor
My girlfriends 89 prelude Si:
Turbo manifold: 300
Piping : 350
Intercooler used saab 9-3: 30
New Precision 350: 220
Injectors (DSM 1g 450) :45
Walbro 255 fuel pump: 100
Downpipe: 150
BOV DSM 1g: 20
Used T3/T4 from 90's Saab 900: 60(pull yourself junkyard) 150-300 ebay
Turbo rebuild kit(diy) complete: 80 (ebay)
Oil feed line: 60
Oil return line(stainless w/an fittings): 80
Hondata S200/P28 ecu: 900
Boost controller: 30
Stage 2 clutch w/extreme pressure plate: 400
The most important part Dyno tuning: 400
Result:
Stock 95 whp Boost(9 psi) 204 whp 225 wtq

...... New Precision 350?
and was the stage 2 clutch really needed for that? Though im sure it helped with the torque ^_^

RE: semi custom turbo piece together
 

The clutch made a huge difference. No clutch slippage or hop. It is a little stiff but works great. The Precision 350 was suposed to be listed with the intercooler. We just ordered it to replace the Saab intercooler. The problem with the Saab part is that it is steel so it is a little ineficiant. The Precision should reduce intake temps as much as 50 degrees. Our tuner said that with the new intercooler and her cam gears tuned we should see about 240-250 whp at 9psi. The Hondata is the biggest part of the set up. Her car runs better than my 03 Accord.

Yeah, that turbo setup really offsets that old engine..... and i realize what the 350 means for Precision 350 lol, are there any plans for head or block work? or has some already been done?

RE: semi custom turbo piece together
 

That is the next step. We are buying a set of Wiesco 9.0:1 pistons this week for 200. We plan on having the block sleeved, new rods, pistons port the head and intake mani, B18 and B21 cams, equal length exhaust mani, new turbo(bigger don't know which one) and some other stuff I cant remember. This is all for next summer. We are aiming for around 350 whp. Won't get started till my Accord is turbo'ed(next) and our Civic gets its H22 installed.
As the car sits(New intercooler not installed) it does pretty good against even a Cobra Mustang. It deffinetally was walking from us but not as fast as I expected. The B20 really like boost and makes mean torque.
The F22's have some real potential. At the dyno day this last fall someone brought a built F22 95 Accord running 16psi of boost and got about 340 whp. It was scarry and looked stock except for the front mount intercooler.

RE: semi custom turbo piece together
 

if you have a t3/4 hybrid turbo already it should have a min effeciency of like.... 250 or 300 hp, all you should have to change is the waste gate spring... unless your talking about that civic, but yeah it scares me how radically different the f22 engine is from the f23..... but i still have faith in the strength of my f23 which is why im aiming for over 300 hp but that involves a complete engine rebuild and i should be able to get over 200 hp off of 9:1 pistons without a turbo ^_^
