im been wondering how to make my turbo spool faster, so i been searching a lot and all i find is junk. some say to port my exhaust inlet some say not to do it. other say so upgrade to bigger exhaust piping....... its confusing..
has anyone here actually tried doing something like that and notice any good results? i ask this because my turbo starts spooling at 3000RPM and i reach full boost (11psi) at around 3,800 rpm. i would like to reach full boost way before that.... i got a generic t3t4 .57 trim and i believe the exhaust side is .63 on my 94 gt, internal waste-gate w/ manual boost controller, 2 1/2" exhaust piping all help is appreciated |

Boost leaks will make you not only "spool slower" but reach peak PSI much slower. A small boost leak is enough to notice a difference.
Adapters are more of a con than a pro, they are there just to "make things work". Ideally, you'd get a twin-scroll t3/t4 or a ct-26, or use a tubular t3 manifold with a t3 turbo that has an internal wastegate (to avoid having to use a wastegate adapater as well) http://www.ebay.com/itm/91-95-Celica-MR2-S...r#ht_3029wt_952 You need that, and this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/All-Honda-T3-Inter...r#ht_2450wt_952 BTW, "eBay turbos are crap" is history now. They've long since improved in everything, especially their turbos. You should only verify the wastegate hole is as big as the flap. Usually they are smaller (much smaller than they should be) and people bore them out to avoid boost creep) it only needs to be as big as the flap. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
