Ok so im in iraq and using all my extra money to put together a turbo for my lsj.

In Custody:
garrett GT32 73 Trim .78A/R
tail 50mm bov
tial 38mm wastgate, 20 psi spring
60lb injectors and harnes

Needed:
zzp turbo manifold
hahn intercooler
hahn sheetmetal intake manifold
hahn portfueler

what am i missing other than the obvious things....like....TRACTION
also where can i find bigger injectors

Go with a smaller spring in the wastegate. You can always increase boost above itbut it will be hard to tune and you may run into other issues if your lowest boost will be 20.

i have a 1 bar and .5 bar spring. just threw the 1 bar in cause it sounds cool..fast...i mean...you get it....

Hey. This is somewhat off topic

Will a T25 housed turbo fit on a T3 manifold?

bwalker0510

well i ordered a gt32 with a divided t3 inlet flange. truthfully im not to sure. this is my first time pieceing together a turbo kit. i just bought a premade kit for my old crx. try out this site and see if it helps

i think intense racing sells bigger then 60s.

by the way thank you for serving our country. im sure i speak for all of us over here when i say we are greatly in debt to you all over there

RC makes a 71lbs injector that fits. This is what I am using. But I should mention at WOT at 350WHP I am only using 47% injector duty. You might not need something that big.

It is about time bro!!!

I can not wait to see it done. Hopefully mine will be done by time you get back!

Kind of a turbo noob..
But isnt that turbo a bit big? I have read not go really go over a 50 trim on an engine this small, well for street applications atleast.

restonSS

you are right, that turbo is gonna take a long while to hit full boost. im talkng prob in the range of 4200-4700 rpms. but he will make some SERIOUS power when it hits. its gonna take a while to get used to on the streets.

Well today I just impulsed on a GT3071R..so I guess we can compare builds. I went with the 630cc injectors and 255lph pump to get to 400whp

thats the nicest thing about those injectors you never have to worry about maxing them, and there disc style so they don't get any pintle bounce.

what are you using for tuning on your saab? i currently am using the 2.0t manifold, that thing heat soaks bad.

pjk91

what do you use for tuning, frosty?

Frosty288

Unlike you bastards I have to use Nordic, which is a few dudes who comes down from Sweden once or so every year and tunes Saabs. Though they can tune for absolutely anything, I understand it's a lot more in depth then HP tuners at the moment.

It's also gunna cost 1250 bucks to get it tuned.

edit: I'm not sure if the 2.0t and 2.0T manifolds are different

idk if theres a difference either, my manifold was pulled from a saab 9-3 2.0T just like yours though. works great for my application, just need to get a composite gasket for it to prevent heatsoak. and someone sent a log file from a saab 2.0T to hpt allready, idk if there gonna support it though.

i know that turbo is kinda big but thats the point....big power...im tryin to hit around 450whp to 500whp. im gonna go with the diamond pistons, but im still searching for rods.

F%&K Iraq.

i dont know anything about turbo's, but good luck with the build!

bwalker0510

ok, so im thinking about putting a ls4 throttle body on this to get some extra air in. has anyone proven gains with this and is it worth it. also, until i finish the engine build i ordered a s/c delete kit from www.atpturbo.com instead on putting the hahn manifold on. anyone used this?

Maxim_X

I have the SC delete kit. It works well. You can do some mild porting on the bottom side to get a little better flow.

GL! with the build and hopefully you have some really good tools and a lift cuz it makes it a ton easier.

bwalker0510

i did the install in my drive way. now its at the shop getting the dp done and the intercooler piping ran. it was actually pretty damn easy.

those are some big numbers to hit, not saying it cant be done but good luck hitting them, if anyones going to do it first I see ( is it paul ) from ny hittin 450 500 first, since he was the first to break 400

MarqueDo7BabyBalt

oh thats coo, I have to do the same for the dp lol.
