turbo

[coupecop]

Just want to know if any one has ever used a turbo of a srt4 neon on their mustang and where they got all the parts to adapt it to the car a friend has a turbo of his neon that he will sale to me for $200 .

probably too small for a v8? no? i would go atleast with a t70, how big is it?

Maybe if you could get a 2nd one...

 

[coupecop]

It would be the stock one of the srt he has run 19lb of boost on it

Don't bother, the SRT-4 uses a Mitsubishi TD04 Turbocharger...small for a 5 liter engine. If you had a second one it would make a great turbo to do a twin setup.

If I would to go turbo I would be looking at a nice sized single setup, with the torque our engines make there is no real need to go with 2 small turbos.

You have to remember that boost is an indication of backpressure. Think of it this way: put a turbo on a stock Mustang and make say... 10lbs of boost. Now put that same turbo on a Mustang with H/C/I and make, I don't know... 6lbs of boost with the same turbo. Which car is faster?

The SRT4 turbo probably isn't a bad unit, but it's only feeding a 2.4L 4cyl. You'd need quite a bit more airflow. If you were able to grab another one for a twin setup, you might be getting somewhere.

Ask S&B here loves SRTs more than mustangs

look for a garrette turbo from a dodge diesel. they push a 5.9 liter 6 cylinder.

what other turbo would you all suggest.

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

a master power t70 for one, a neon pos be way too ****ing small for this, maybe 2 ike other people have said but, you dont want just one, look into how they work and look at the compressor maps and all that first and study them, and then youll know around what you need.. but there is a dude here local, and he is making over 415hp and and 480ft. with nothing but a systemax intake and a b&g turbo kit with a masterpower t70 at 10psi.

Ok for starters look on turbomustangs to get a lot of info. Like already said the neon turbo is way to small. In reality the correct sized turbo for a 302 is a 60 or 62mm because it will take longer to spool a larger turbo. A MP70 would be fine though, people make plenty of power out of them and they are cheap believe around $550 new.

 

[Scorcher2005]

not worth it. you can find quite a few turbos on ebay for $100-$500. That, some universal piping, couplers, intercooler, supporting mods like injectors, pump, etc... and you can build a kit for under $1500.

 

[foxmustangman]

There's a complete turbo set up for a 5.0L on ebay right now for like $700

 

[bentley429]

Yea and its junk....you get what you pay for.

Very good point.
