Hey luders

I'm new here and i hope i get an answer, i tried to search the forums but there was no results.

I have found a turbo kit on eBay and it looks good and i have done my research and found that there is a specific turbo that i should not buy which i dont remember the manufacturer but it wasn't RX Raceparts:

RXRaceParts.com > T04e T3/T4 Turbocharger

Any thoughts ?

Note: this is 1st stage for me then later on i would do a better custom turbo setup on the 2nd and 3rd stage.

My initial setup for my Lude '93 Siis the following:

1- Darton Sleeves
2- JE Pistons
3- Eagle Rods
4- 1000cc Injectors
5- AEM Fuel rail
6- Walbro Fuel pump
7- Hondata S300
8- H22A Swap with P13 ECU (Done already)
9- P2U5 Tranny (Done already)
10- P28 ECU
11- Custom Exhaust 2.5 inch with Turbo Muffler (Done already)
12- Short Shifter
13- Gutted interior
14- Light weight 17-inch wheels (Done already)

Hope to hear from you guys soon.

What's your gut feeling when considering a $150 turbocharger?

Have you seen my baseball?

Well, thanks for your replies, but the thing is that no one said anything about it's being bad and stuff, BUT my first concern is to get the main items for the turbo setup (Intercooler, piping, clamps, BOV, WG, hoses and etc..) the turbo is not a big concern since i have all the parts i have mentioned, i won't be worried about my engine to be broken and stuff cuz i can buy another engine for $350

So we gave our thoughts. Please feel free to come back in a few months and complain about how your new sub-$200 turbo setup is a complete piece of ****.

I'm sure nobody will laugh.

Why'd you go with an Accord transmission?

hoooba · 12-22-2009, 02:38 PM

The reason why i went for an accord tranny cuz here in my country, we don't do 1/4 mile races, we do more than that, like 1 km or 600 meters (dunno how much in miles).

Tee-Dot: i only need it for a few months and not longer

cheap parts mean more money spent in the end.. that thing looks like it wouldn't work on a bigwheel..

Don't cheap out on the stuff that will make the power. Go with a brand that has some vouches for it.
