with a stock engine, 3 psi is low enough. i might not even feel it

Chrisman8995 · 03-23-2003

i wish people would speak english..........but anyway 3psi is not enough to make a difference,,( unless you are going for the mental satisfaction)

Dr5D · 03-23-2003

why would you want to spend all the money for a turbo for just that little amout of boost???

CapYoda · 03-23-2003

geez u can boost 5psi stock and it'll be fine

but yeah if ur engine dies dont come to me and bitch.

but come on, 5 psi is LOW

imagine 3. why bother with the turbo setup if you're just going to boost 3psi

MadWheel · 03-23-2003

keeep in mind psi is one thing, but the cfm is the rate the air actually goes into the motor. A bigger turb can run lower psi and produce more power than a smaller turbo running higher psi. 5 psi is fine on our engines, it's been done.

maybe u havent noticed but im not frm america and all where i live vics r the only type of cars ppl modify n race here. there only a few rx7s and a few bishi FTOs. and no one races em any way.its all vics.

and as for the 3psi, i chose it cuz ppl told me ill need EMS or some computer shit and i cant get that due to several reasons. so all i can increase the fuel by is 7%. so like i said if some one is 100% sure that a 5 psi turbo will do than ill go with that but i cant risk damaging my engine in any way so tell me wat to do.

and will NOS be safer.

MadWheel · 03-23-2003

5 psi is a very common application with our cars. the highest is about 7psi before you should look at an intercooler. with 5psi, either add an extra injector or a fuel return line, then you're good to go

GanariGuY · 03-24-2003

You have RX7's and FTO but they dont' race it!!!!!!!! WTF???

If i had an FTO i'll be at the races every night hahhahaha

But listen to everyone on this thread..... your car will be fine with 5 psi......

If yo want 3 psi get a boost controller.... and set it.....
But don't waste your money on a turbo that's max output is 3 psi

Not worth it

drag · 03-24-2003

aight than ill get a 5psi turbo but tell me bout the fuel return line thingey, i kno we dont hav one so how do we jus put one in.

and i hav a small intercooler too, shud i use it with 5psi.

and wud a 7% increase in fuel b enough

Chrisman8995 · 03-24-2003

drag, i meant no offense to your english, or lack there of, i thought the whole pakistan thing was a joke, i was really referring to the people who leave out the vowels or whatever.....any way no harm meant
