Ur putting turbos in the back of the car?

theWeezL · 06-17-2006, 03:34 PM

ummm....what I meant by my last comment is only NOOB toyota owners refer to them as V6.....seeing as its NOT a "V"6 at all, rather its a I6 or more specifically a DOHC 24V I6

its kinda a pet peave of mine, I see ads for supra's all the time that say V6 and I suspect the owner knows nothing of their car.

Note: An all aluminum LS1 weighs less than a 7m motor, Both with all bolt ons and filled

ok, you're forgiven

i think i've heard of them being placed somewhere at the tailpipes,but can you imagine the turbo lag due to the extremely long piping from the turbos to the intake?

Im not sure but it would make sense that if you put the wastegate as close to the engine as possible then you should have pressure built up to the point of the wastegate.

Here is and article on the rear mounted turbos. http://www.chevyhiperformance.com/te...48_0502_turbo/

This may be off-subject but has anyone ever dealt with Pro Racing Sim software? Especially Dyno Sim Advanced? i Built a single turbo 427 stroker motor and it showed that i could get 743 hp @ 5000 rpm and 802 ftlb @ 4500 rpm. That sounds pretty impresiive and supposedly these programs are within 10%. Also will the toyota trans stand up to that? Will the Rear-end?
(We are thinking of a local open road challenge / road race.) Not drag racing.

plz post reply. thanks!

yeah i have seen it done before so i thought i would try it, it helps alot on the heat in the engine bay because the turbos r in the back and in my case it will help me get to a more even weight distribution.
