Do you think this will fit on an 88 na?

yearrgh

Technically it would, but if you need to ask, you wouldn't be able to pull of the install (No offense intended) Also, I'm not an expert, but i'd be concerned that it's oil-cooled only. No coolant lines.

Cobra_R

Well u know id like to turbo my na but i only got like 1900 to spend and cant really to any custom stuff some im always looking out for na turbo kits and things like that.

SDrotary-FC

you can always swap the turboII stuff on for a cheap turbo kit

scathcart

Many, MANY aftermarket turbos (i fact, the majority of makes) are oil cooled only, no coolant.

Cobra_R

so how exactly does that work?

ditto that, it isn't all that hard to find T2 parts to do the swap and it wouldn't cost an arm and a leg, if done properly you could boost up to 12-14psi and push out close to 300RWHP without blowing things up. note those are close to max figures and doing upgrades accordingly but the T2 turbos are not a weak setup unless you want huge power.

Um... no, that would not "fit" on a normally aspirated rx-7..... For that to fit you will need a turbo exhaust manifold (and get your exhaust to hook up to it) and some type of modification for intake (a turbo 2 intake manifold with adapter plate works)..

(exhaust) something like
this

(intake) something like
this

(fuel needs for much boost at all) something like
this

(intercooler for cooling turbo intake) like
this]

and a bunch of piping to connect the turbo to your intercooler to your intake.... and then ideally you would get bigger injectors, a new transmission, a new clutch, and a new driveshaft..

lol, i just made a turbo shopping cart for some lucky person.

Cobra_R

Yea i could easily find the t2 parts to convert the na engine to a turbo engine but i dont know if id be able to do the work myself and labor costs would probably be huge. Id like to do the full t2 swap but only got 1900, so im trying to see if theirs a way to turbo my na for that, if not ill do something else.

Wow thanx!

Don't be in such a hurry to spend all of your money. Save up to do the swap right if you don't have the money now.

Cobra_R

So could i use the stock: turbo, intercooler, turbo exhaust and intake manifold, and turbo transmission, clutch, and driveshaft to convert the engine to turbo?

this thread should help you out

I sound like a broken record...

SSAutochrome / Stone Racing / XS Power / Master Power is CRAP.

Sheez, it looks like they stole the Tial BOV design to manufacturer their counterfeit crap.
Their "HKS Replica" wastegates are crap - they sieze and blow your motor!
So, if you happen to get all of this running, it'll kill your engine in a few days!
All these bitches can do is do crappy copying of other good products and call it theirs.
"You get what you pay for."
Stop supporting ******** like this!
Do a search for vendors before you start threads like this - you'll find your answer quicker!

i'd listen to Jager on this one. if you have 1900. wait a couple of months and do it right the FIRST time. you can buy the motor and tranny with turbo and intercoller for less than a $1000 shipped to your door, all you have to look for afterwards is the computer and harness and misc parts. depending on what you want to do you could end up spending less than 2500 on an entire swap that will make you MORE than happy, that's what I did. just be patient and look around.

I'd also listen to REted. This guy has a lot of experience! I thought about the same turbo kit for my TII swap but decided it was not worth it. I'd rather save my money and do it right.

$1000 Motor Tranny turbo intercooler shipped to my door
$250 for ECU and harness
$80 for AFM and Pressure Sensor
$100 for hood
$300 mazdatrix driveline (if you dont want TII rear end)
$300 exhaust (full)

Total= $2030 runs great!

Trust EVERYONE that tells you to search it's worth it! You'll probaly never have to post.

Cobra_R

Hey thanks for the list, ive been planning on doing the t2 swap but thought it would be around like 4000 so i was looking at cheaper alternatives, but 2030 isnt to expensive so i probably will save my money and go for the swap.

or you could sell your car and use all of your money and just buy a good running T2.

Cobra_R

lol, thats what im trying to do right now, was looking on this forum.

well i do have to say one thing though, the SSautochrome turbo back system isn't a bad product for $200.

Cobra_R

whered u get the mazdatrix driveline, i looked on mazdatrix.com and couldnt find the driveline.

lnlycrpr

I actually bought that system and it fits perfect, sounds great and looks good. It comes out the drivers side instead of the passenger. I havent had any problems with it and i think for that price you just cant beat it. I'm not willing to spend an extra $500 for a stamp. I had an apexi N1 catback prior, the canister was bigger but i still like the new one. Still have the N1, if anyone is interested pm me, i'm in Lowsianna.
