Hey i was wondering how much boost can i push into the stock bottom end of my es lancer with out hurting it. i searched and didnt find a consistent answer. I am going to use a t25 turbo intercooled setup on a 5 speed thanks

 

Just read another forum discussing boost on stock internals. About 7 psi to be safe and 9-11 if you feel lucky.

 

the most you can do on stock is 9psi. Atleast that's what I would set it at just to be on the safe side...

 

Thanks i was asking because i am thinking of getting a used turbo kit and the person that is selling it said that the wastegate is set at 10 psi and thats too high for my stock lancer right ? just a note what do u guys think of the kit

i think 7 is the highest you can run for stage 1 due to fuel requirements..
i have read of a lot of people running between 9-11 with no problem with stage 2 , i am one of them .., but if you get that kit for a good price why not just go straight to stage 2 .. that is what i would have done. that way you dont have to mess with the setup.. , but you could always get a boost contoller and turn it down ..

 

12 wusses.

Alternatively, search.

 

Come on man, you know you can't be boosting in Addison!

J/k bro

Run 10psi just because of the boost spikes.

 

Soo its cool to run it @ 10psi ? the kit comes with a fuel pump and regulator and ill put on an a wide band and SAFC then would it be alright? (sorry for the lame questions just trying to understand.)

Just another way for Addison cop to stay busy

 

none of that stuff is going to do you any good without injectors.. everything else soulds good but you definetely will need to change the stock injectors.. if you want to run 10 otherwise you will lean out and detonate..

 

is that Addison,Texas? also stage1 I/C is 7psi safe.....cause of fuel....now add more fuel i.e. bigger injectors and standalone/RRM Stage2....10-11psi is probly the max.

 

No its addison IL

Any way the person that was going to sell the kit to me found a better buyer

Any one selling a turbo kit in the 1600 to 1800 range?

 

Addison cops are cool, besides the new rookies.

If you want to meet up send me a pm.

 

If you have fuel and timing management, you can get up to 12psi like AirQuez states. Most of the kits on this forum are set to 6-ish psi on Stage 1, and 9-ish psi on Stage 2 because the FMU solution to boosting sucks and you need to take precautions. With a properly tuned fuel curve and timing adjustments, you can hit 12psi. Life of the engine will be shortened though. I wouldn't go above 10 without forged internals.

 

Well, sorry you missed out on that kit. There's one on Ebay here for $4000 ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/lance...01189635QQrdZ1 ). Believe it's the RRM Stage 2, but just look at those extras you get. Man, love'n that gauge setup on the dash...

 

great googly moogly.
