I'm an idiot when it comes to anything turbo and I'm bored so here it is: Can someone clarify or tell me what the best turbo kit/upgrade/combo/set-up/brand/etc..... for the '88 TII?? Also, what other works need to be done for best results.. I'm leaning more towards the 'daily-driver' set-up rather than the heavily modified version.. And oh yeah, $$$ is very limited for me right now so the cheaper the better, I think!. (let's say a budget of under $1.5k)

Not possible...

NjFC3S,

Hey just use the OEM turbo and max out the stock setup. The stock fuel system maxes before the turbo.

FEDREX

Series V turbo and manifold w/upgraded turbine wheel and compressor wheel.
Haltech F5 AIC
single 720cc plumbed
Profec B 9psi (low) / 13psi (high)
HKS FCD

I'd give you more info but I haven't done some of this YET. There's a local shop in West Palm Beach that runs TII's like this with excellent results. www.japtrix.com
You don't need FMIC or E6K so you're saving about 2 grand there.

amemiya

ok here is the best I have came up with.

garrett t60-1 roughly $850
torbonetics wastegate delta $200
hks manafold $245
custom down pipe roughly $100 ( I hope you already have 3')
apexi afc $300
wellbro 255lph pump $100
atleast 1000cc secondary injectors $300

=$2095
so save a little more and please dyno it before even trying to take it above 3500 rpm

Ryde _Or_Die

You would need 1000cc injectors for this? I thought 720s would be good enough. Please correct me people if I am wrong.

amemiya

it depends how far you go and how big of a port. A t60-1 is a good size turbo and would need big injectors. soul assassin runs 4 1000. some people run 1600cc.

Deltagate= crap

Plus you left about 1400 off for a Haltech and dyno time...

Dyre

Just MAX the current setup.
10psi-12psi should let you make around 230-250 flywheel hp.
Full Exhuast, Intake, Ported wastegate, FCD, Walbro Fuel Pump with rewire. Maybe a better BOV just for a cleaner install.

Once you max the stock setup, you have to make a decision. BIG POWER ( =$$$$) or about 300-350 flywheel hp.

They sell these items at Walmart now? where are you getting these prices? I have been shopping parts for weeks now & half of those sound way lower than what I have seen

Maxthe7man

Yah them prices are a bit low, and how much can you do yourself..
From my own reciepts and experience
to4e 750.00
haltech 1400 with everything
walbro 125.00
injectors 180.00
intercooler 500
wastegate 450.00 and don't bother with the turbonetics ****..
blowoff valve 165.00
stainless tubular manifold? built by me 100.00
odds and sods probably 500.00.. I am doing everything on my own and build my own stuff but my price is tag is still around 4200 bucks doing it the right way.. I guess you could use the stock ecu with piggybacks to run the to4e, but you are never going to see max power or reliability...Max

Turbo's are not cheap, and all the other stuff isn't either. If I was on a limited budget and wasn't looking for a bunch of ponys, I would modify the stock setup.

amemiya

hey he wanted cheep thats what I gave him. I wouldn't use any of that stuff. Here is what I got goin on.

3 rotor = $3,900
T51R KAI= $2500
AEM= $1400
1500cfm/fmic= $795
conversion mounts=$450

amemiya

the stock turbo is a paper weight, use less
