Turbo Setup For Our Car? What ya Think About This One.

[vt_maverick]

Come on UNIVERSAL? I can put this on a GEO Metro or a Caddy or a Hummer or Civic?

I know of the superchargers but has anyone done a turbo app yet?

And as far as those "UNIVERSAL" kits are concerned...they are a joke. My brother got one for his eclipse and he spent months just putting it together...not to mention he spun the bearings on his turbo as the compressor was too small for his app.

No false advertising here, turbos are like centrifugal superchargers, because they don't bolt directly to the engine manifold like a roots/Eaton-style supercharger, they're not terribly application specific (with the exception of needing to choose one of sufficient size for your engine). What does have to be specific is the mounting and piping required to route the gases out of your exhaust into the turbo and out into the intake. Those pieces almost always have to be fabricated from scratch, and since most people don't have professional pipe-bending and metal fabrication equipment in their garage, installing one of these without professional help is extremely difficult.
