Turboing a 7MGE

[supraman121]

Technically you should be able to bolt that on and it should work... but the ecu in the car isnt tuned for it so i dont no what you would do about that, your going to need to find some way to get oil to the turbo and water, iv heard of poeple leaving the water hole unhooked to compensate for no water, iv been told you need a cam positioning sensor but no one will tell me why, and if your going to try to bolt this on i would recommend a boost gauge and maybe a controller, you could always ask a local shop what is need to boost it a tuner shop should know... dont just bolt it on because i said it would work i would ask some shops around what is required.

Well the fuel pump was upgraded for more boost but you really cant boost all that high with an na motor, but it still a good upgrade, the oil cooler was installed i dont think the na models have them but the oil cooler was installed to get oil to the turbo, and the 7mgte oil pan im asuming has a place for the oil return line, and the upper throttlebody to a 7mgte uper should be a big deal, you might need a new coil pack or somthing if you look at the pictures of the motor it has the 3000 pipe and a little black looking pack thing you might need that (thats what im refuring to as a coilpack im probly wrong) and 8psi is probly has high as you want to go and your going to need to use a 93 octane fuel or high octane fuel.
