N/A block with turbo setup =)

[PorterzSupra]

Okay basically im replacing my turbo motor with a new N/A block with all the goodies and mods. The N/A is good for about 50 more HP then the GTE plus with 9:1 you can still get away with a turbo esp with proper intercooling/tuning. Anyway I had a few questions because im in the middle of the swap now. I had to replace the dist or crank sensor when I put the new one in how do I get the timing on 0? line the came gears and crank to 0 on #1 compression stroke and set in?? Not familiar with that kinda dist. Also what do u guys use for a oil return on thoes blocks? Should I tap a fitting into the oil pan? Could I use the stock oil pressure sensor location for the oil in to the turbo? THX - Eric

daaaang! i wanna see how it turns out cuz i may want to do the same thing with my new 86.5 na

935 sells a oil line kit and u weld a bung onto the oil pan, if u use the NA block your gonna have to wire the knock sensors cuz the turbo has 2 knock sensors and the NA only has 1

iirc adjusting timing should be the same as it was NA...like u line everything at zero and jus put the cps in right

btw my car is a 7MGE running turbo electronics...etc

Hey guys, do u think this turbo is big enough!!??? im thinkin of goin bigger j/k!!! I was thinkin about drill/tap a hole for the oil return, also what ru using for a oil in??

That turbo is too small for the supra... J/K. What series garret is that and what are ur hp expectation #'s?

 

[PorterzSupra]

not sure wut series, im actually gonna run a smaller turbo on it, I just put it on for kicks. =)

You dont need 2 knock sensors unless you use GTE electronics. Which is not required to bolt on a turbo.

If you would read the post it suggests I have a turbo car/electronics/motor and im swaping for a NA block for more power.

Nick, We are not dealing with starwars and transformers anymore we are working on Supras =)
