What's up guys, I've been thinking about throwing a turbo in my ES. I have a few questions.

I've read that the 06 ES Lancers have a returnless fuel system. Is it still safe to put a turbo in or should I spend some more money and make it a returned fuel system?

Also, how much boost should I set it at for a DD? I'm thinking either 7-8lbs of boost.


Any comments would be great. I know just a little bit about turbos and I am still learning. I know there's a lot of smart people on this forum and any help would be appreciated.

 

I would start by reading the threads in the forced induction section. All of your questions will be answered there. Good luck.

 

+1 no one gets off this easy you have to do the research so you know what your getting into. I asked the same question and got the same response

 

haha yeah I feel ya guys. I wasn't even going to turbo my ES, but a friend of mine who owns a auto shop is going to do it for $1,700 and it includes, parts, tuned, and labor.. I can't pass that up. RRM wanted $4,200 + $800 for labor = $5,000 for their turbo. RRM's doesn't pass smog and mine wont either.
