there dont seem to be any "kits" but using that manifold which is actually made by SPA turbo in brazil u can piece together something. Only problem is there are no real drop in chips to suit our ECUs. So stand alone is probly the only real option at this stage. Check out some of the UK builds on www.vr6oc.com
One guy even used his stock ECU with a rising rate FPR. Although his A/F ratios werent perfect. They were reasonably safe.
yeah the stock chip with stock timing , you would think could handle around 7 psi , no proof but i would think it would be able to handle it . and the rising rate reg would help .
plus you make much power and you going to need a diff and new clutch.
yeah even at low boost from what i have read VR6s seem to make really good power. Ive exchanged a couple emails with a guy in the UK that sells the SPA turbo kits for RHD. and he said at 6psi its ok with stock ecu.
Its a shame we dont seem to have anyone locally that can remap the motronic like how they do in the US.
Personally i dont see the need for 300+ HP in a fwd unless u wanna go drag racing.
yeah i would just want a nice increase in power 220 at the wheels would prob make me very happy
Wouldnt it be cheaper to get one custom made rather than buying from overseas?
nnnnnnnnup not unless u can make it yourself
Why not supercharge it, the dude from the cruise Beau reckons that its not good to turbo a car, he suggested supercharging it. Only saying this because I was considering it aswell turbocharging it that is.
the vr6 engine is tough as. why not turbo it? the only argument against doing it is the price! and the fact that youre gonna break stuffff!
i've been slowly putting money away to get a turbo set up.
I was thinking of getting a new car but then i thought instead of spending craploads on a new car ill just get mine rebuilt/turbo'd and have a freakin weapon. Gonna be a while till i get enough cash together though!
