Turbo interest?

[Mental Addiction]

If I was to produce a turbo kit for the 1st gen BP1.8 what kind of interest is their? WOuld you want something similar to my Revised Sleeper or something that is more budget?The testbed car will be a 92 Protege.

[Salmon_Rob]

something more budget would probably be more in lines with first gen people. not neccesarily a huge turbo, maybe a 200 whp kit or so, with all fittings, fmic etc, but if possible without the need for stand alone. the stock ecu can control up to 10 psi IIRC

[ne3ek]

If I were you i'd start off by making a manifold and seeing how it sells, 1st gen guys make it hard to make parts for lol. I was gonna make a couple manifolds this sumemr but I may put off and just do stuff for honda guys, I need to make some cash.

But a nice ramhorn maybe with and ext w/g optional would be a cool part you may sell.

[Salmon_Rob]

as pat said, keep it cheap and they will maybe buy lol

[pdhaudio83]

bump!!

[elscotto80]

Sounds awsome. I need an upgrade from the VJ-20.

[Salmon_Rob]

if you need to sponsor someone to test the kit, if i can get it at cost or something, ill test it for you

[pdhaudio83]

He recently aquired a 92 Protege I believe :)

[Salmon_Rob]

i mean for a consumer tester ;) first gen will be back on the road in early summer, need to run one 14 second pass, then i can boost it ;)

[Mental Addiction]

The ram horn manifolds are $1095.I don't feel theirs enough interest from the 1-2nd Gen guys to come out with a high end all out race header.If i do a turbo kit it will use a log manifold, unless theirs enough 1-2nd Gen guys that want the best that money can buy.If this is the case I will make a tubular manifold.
The turbo kit will be come with the following
Manifold
T3/T4E
2.5 or 3" downpipe
Front mount intercooler
Greddy Type S BOV
silicone,etc

[Salmon_Rob]

whats base price looking at?

[D323]

Would be interested in seeing a kit put together....

FMIC's are always a fun job to route the pipes and get proper fitment.... other than that, it would be nice to see a turbo kit put together...

[Salmon_Rob]

[D323]

any progress?

I was thinking about it the other day, and I wanted to do something different than the usual GTX turbo for my 323.... IF this kit was made, I'd be interested in sporting it.

[Pro5Lani]

Hell yeah, I was just thinking of a turbo kit for my 1st gen. I really don't want to do a GTR/GTX swap, if possible. But, I would like the kit to be budget.


I'll probably be getting me a DOHC soon, so yeah...

Besides, my 1st gen is going to be my race car.

[Mental Addiction]

We will have the car here on Friday.Right now we are backed up on a few projects and with the new shop.We will not be getting started on this project for 4-6 weeks.

[ze_reyinal]

hello my name is Reyinal, i will like to know if this turbo kit is on sale yet, I wanted to buy one for my protege ES, I live in Panama(central america), i want more info on the same one, photos and testimonies of people who already have the turbo kit working in their cars

thanks

[Captain KRM P5]

i think this kit is dead in the water

[ze_reyinal]

somebody knows of some turbo kit that I can buy for my protege ES, I do not want to buy a BPT engine, i will like to use my original BP engine with turbo, without so many complications

[AZDriftR]

its would have to be dirt cheap. u can get the bpt from japan for alil over 1k. wish i still had my 1g

[ze_reyinal]

I can use the same wiring of my BP and the same ECU.
how many boost my stock ECU can read

[ze_reyinal]

I found here in Panama (central america) the BPT engine with tranny(4wd) and the ECU for only $900 box, my question is again, I can use the same wiring of my original BP???, since the new engine does not bring the turbo wiring

[AZDriftR]

most likely not. and you wont be able to use that 4wd tranny. i would sell that and get you an ECU.

[ze_reyinal]

Someone know if i can to use original tranny that has my BP engine yet ????????.
I want to find information of someone who had done that swap or of some site where it leaves like making it ,because in this week I am going to buy the BPT
