big churbo and a boost gauge
4 Attachment(s)
Brand new in box LC-1 with DB gauge. I believe it's blue, but I ordered a while back and will verify. Comes with everything shown, and all that would normally come new in box, as well as both stainless and mild bungs.
Sold T3/T4 300-400hp eBay turbo. Comes with fittings, bolts and lines shown. $100 shipped https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1338991883 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1338991883 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1338991883 |
Hey man, PMed you for the LC-1

Hold it up to the light you should be able to see the blue writing on it.

LC-1 Sold

That is a bargain on that turbo, especially with the line thrown in. I'd buy it but my almost five year old T3/T4 churbo is still doing fine!
|
you are fail-proof ;)

If someone can definitively state that this churbo won't be a total dog on a stock motor-no forged anything- 220-ish WHP application I may be interested in it for the SAABata. Track car with limited street driving.
I planned on doing another SR20T25 which I feel would do a better job for me on my application, but I could be wrong. Someone speak up on this. Which would be the better choice? I haven't built the mani yet so T25 or T3 is irrelevant to me right now. |
I honestly think you'd be fighting the surge limit while building boost, might see some boost shortly after 3K rpms, max boost maybe a little before 4K, and be shifting at the point you're finally getting into the meat of the "efficiency island" (~70%).
Ideal? You tell me. To quote Corky Bell:

It is not at all a case of only one size working in a specific situation; rather, there is just one that will work best. The trade-offs of lag, boost threshold, heat, low-speed torque, and power are the variables in the decision process of matching the turbo to the requirements. To optimize the trade-offs, the requirements must be defined first. From what I get from your build I think you'd much prefer something that moves well without revving too much. Something magical about a properly-sized turbo on a 220whp Miata(motor). It's already passed that 18wheeler as soon as you've thought it, it's already 2 blocks down the road of that F250 driver who dumped a cloud of diesel smoke as soon as he saw you pull out. I apologize that I've recently sold two turbos just outside of your ideal range, but you will be happier staying in that range. |

I haven't built the mani yet so T25 or T3 is irrelevant to me right now. I can only say how it works on my car that sports a stock '96 motor with 220k miles on it. I enjoy daily driving it, towing things and such. I suggest running a 3" exhaust turbo to tip. The vids (link in my sig) are mostly at 12-13psi. I know I'm the odd minority but I couldn't think of going any smaller. I hated the powerband on the last four tiny turbo cars I've owned. |
^ a better salesman than I

I agree. IMO the "daily driving it" and autoX videos are strong testimony. Stein's biggest obstacle is the fact he drives a v8 Miata.

I did have a SR20T25 on my 99 and have two little turbos on my BMW 335i so I'm used to spool "right now". I'm probably going to stick with my T25 plan. |
Those auto-x videos suck, but it appears that car moves like a stabbed rat anyway...
Hell, I'd buy the damn turbo if it had the right flange.. |

Gauge and turbo still available.
Negotiable on the gauge, but the turbo will cost too much to ship to come down on it. Thanks. |
I'm throwing in the eBay EWG that goes with the turbo...for free.
Will take $55 shipped for the gauge. |
I'll take both. Will paypal in the next few days.
