Bigger Turbo?

[Mandi]

So does anyone make a biggere turbo yet? What is the stock turbo? I've come to understad its made by Borg-Warner.

Can't answer that question on the Sky, but going to a bigger turbo can have a ripple effect. I used to have a Dodge SRT-4, and a lot of the folks went with a bigger turbo. Depending on the increase, they wound up getting larger injectors, fuel pump, reprogramming the ECM, larger intercooler, etc. Plus, there's a chance you'll have more turbo lag with a bigger turbo.

Yep....just curious whats out there yet. Lag isn't to big of an issue really, becuase I would make sure everything else is properly designed to reduce it. Perhaps we'll just do a V8 swap down the road.

stock turbo is a Borg Warner K04.

There's a guy over on the sol forums doing a larger turbo swap right now. Baldturbofreak is his name. I believe he's dropping a gt30r into it, but i could be wrong.

A gxp owner is currently installing a gt30 in his car with some custom made flanges. http://www.solsticeforum.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=39654

What turbo and software are you using? What mods to get the new turbo to fit?

Just the wheel??? Did you keep the same compressor housing? If you can, I would love to hear more about this.

Here two pics from turbo.
first one is orineel.

I think he meant the compressor side. Adding a bigger turbine section wouldn't have that affect.

What kind of software are you talking about? Any other specs on the new wheel and who swapped em out?
