do they do a Turbo Kit for the standard Starlet SR Engine?

[scutch0]

there was one on eBay for a while that starletsr spotted.

This kit includes: a CT9 Turbo, Manifold, Front Mount Intercooler, Turbo Water Cooler, Blue Samco Hosing, HKS Blow off valve, 5th Fuel Injector, Polished Aluminium Water Injection Tank, Head Gasket, Fixings. This kit will need to be installed by a professional or someone with good mechanical knowledge. The turbo i believe has done around 58,000 Km.

it went for £500 in the end.

dont know about any other purpose made kits. some one else might thou.

Rich.

you'd also need an ecu and it setting up, might as well just do the swap!

gud point ;)

Also need a oil filter relocation kit.

You'll need more than just a kit. To withstand the extra power you shold need new driveshafts, gearbox, hubs, brakes, basically new running gear. Fensport charge 1250 for the complete kit. toby

is that too go on my engine the kit or the full engine replacement kit? n what bhp shud it take it up2? 0 to 60 time around? cheers ~ Daz.

toby you would be fine with the hubs, gearbox, brakes and drive shafts that you have right now.

all the gearboxes that mate to the e series engines are gineric.the only one that is weaker is the c160 6 speed as the teeth for the 6 diferent ratios are thiner.

the front breaks on your sr are exactly the same as the onse on any glanza or gt turbo

and the rear drums arnt realy factored into this because of the starlets light weight.

daz it would be cheaper to get the kit (wicked ep racing sell them) butit would be a lot less fiddly and time consuming to spend the cash on a full enigine and loom. also you wuoldent be restricted to tuniing on the latter.

both options would take your car round to the 130bhp mark and it would endow your car with a power to weight ratio greater then a saxo vts(not a slow car by any means!)

imonly speculating but with your car set up right it should be low sevens to high sixes to sixty optemisticaly

by the way the extreem ep forum is now open
