And it can't make it up in others. This is wastegate on a 1.8L (~7psi) vs 12psi on a 1.6L
The above are 300rwhp turbos, imagine a 450rwhp one.
Same story here:
this time the 1.8L is running around 12psi and the 1.6L a lot more.
when you consider that a 57 trim will make peak torque around 5K or so on a 1.6L, it makes a big difference.

Guys, Im keen to build a street turbo setup for my 1991 1600cc Eunos Roadster. What exact spec of "Ebay" turbo is going to give me good spool up/response yet be able to make circa 200 BHP at the rear wheels???? Please can you reccomend specs or even better, postup a link to fleabay to highlight the right turbo?
I know budget turbos are not everyones cup of tea but this is a budget project for me having just finished my 650BHP R32 GT-R (the Mazda is my wifes fun car that I restored for her....now she wants more power thus the turbo).
Also....does anyone know the max boost you can run on a stock 1600cce engines before I need to goto forged internals (NOT BUDGET!!)
Thanks in advance peeps..............

Dustin....thats some funny **** fella. Lets beat the noob up...appart from im only a noob to this foryum, already having fully build from a bare shell a Nissan R32 GT-R, currently running at 600BHP....all spec'd and built by me. Turbocharging my wifes 5 and thus joining this forum is a small project for me.
So please class me as well and truly De-Noobed......and please, no more wise guy answers to my questions eh???
If you wanna go fast, get a ride in a GT-R....mx-5's are just toys compared to the GT-R!!

Funnyman, what I meant was what level of boost have people put through their stock internals before there is a need to go for a build. As you will know being a wise guy, all stock pistons and rods have a power level at which regardless of tune the comp ratio and power will cause them to break..... That is what I was trying to establish.... And in the UK and GTR world this is associated to the level of boost and bhp made by the mill. So....rather than taking the **** answer my question seriously if you can..... If not jog on and waste somebody else's time please ?

How can that be the case mate....17 psi is 17 psi....regardless as to which turbo or turbo spec you have delivering the 17psi. If even with a good tune the stock internals give up the ghost at 17psi of boost then. For example, if you knew about RB26 engines if is a well known and well established fact that regardless of turbo, anything more than 1.2bar of boost = mashed internals.
I think we are going to have to draw a line under this one.....you are a long standing member of this forum and I respect that but at the same time, I have been a long standing member of most of the GTR forums for over 10 years now and like to think I am reasonably well thought of technically.
I would appreciate your Miata TB experiance though.....if we can quit the bitching?
I am going to build a fully forged engine for my wifes car but in the meantime I need to establish a basic setup that will allwo me to upgrade the turbo and injectors etc once the fully forged lump is ready.
So, I would like reccomedations with regards to exact turbo spec and manifold choice to allow the car to make a minimum of 200bhp at the wheels in a real street drivable form with enough ceiling to do the odd track day.
Can you help?
Cheers
Andy
