  1. inaccurate, depends on the holset used. the Hy35w's with 90 degree elbows pre-cast into the compressor housing fit without the use of a spacer when clocked right. grind off the stock wastegate actuator flange, the clock it so that the 90 degree elbow is either very close to the intake manifold, or very close to the frame rail. it will fit.

     

    Excellent information. Thanks for the clarification!

  2. Someone correct me if I am wrong but I think it may also be a locked dizzy so it doesn't pull a bunch of advance timing. I may be totally wrong there but I think that is why.

    Correct. As NA and turbo motors require different ignition curves, in order to keep an NA dizzy for a turbo swap the mechanical advance needs to be locked.

  3. I have a more practical reason for you to not drop a V8 in there: you're getting a car with questionable structural integrity (rust, etc) and don't plan on doing any chassis reinforcing. That's a recipe for a twisted chassis when you throw in the torque from a V8, or even a turbo swap. Also, in many cases an American V8 swap into a relatively rare "JDM" vehicle will decrease the resell value should you decide to ever sell it.

  4. Hey Evan, This turbo has a pretty small compressor map. You can use this site squirrel Performance and kinda get a idea to what you are looking at. Does the surge clear up at a certain RPM?(my guess is around 5 Krpms)? You will see the surge line to the left. If at any time you are over in that area, thats when you will get the surge. so if third gear is a really long gear and your at say 300 and nail it.. you could be over in that area until the higher RPMs to where the turbo is working for you.

    here is the link to the site. you can punch all of your data in and see what turbo combinations are good for you

    Not trying to threadjack, but that Squirrel Performance site is very useful. Does anyone have any engine-specific.... specifications that we can plug in there? I.e. VE for stock L-series or RB?

  5. Garrett GT3582R turbo w/ .70 compressor housing & 1.06 turbine housing- $700

     

    My buddy has this f/s let me know if your interested and I can forward contact information.

    If onlt this had a .70-.82 turbine AR :(
