turbo conversion question

[willy_kev]

just a few questions really, like what can the standard internals of a williams handle power wise? and how much would a turbo conversion cost? is the t28 the best way to go? and is a lsd on the market ? because thats alot of power through the front wheels?

cheers

hiya

internals so far crank 500bhp
rods 300bhp but not high revs
pistons not so much power but because of compression 220bhp ish

gripper and a few others do l.s.d,s but box is the weaker point still

cost depends on what you do where you buy the parts etc

drive in out conversion all new parts 6000 quid
do it yourself around half of that

plus brakes suspension tyres gearbox lsd if you want it..

If you want just a bit more power like 220hp

Then you have the possibility to skim the pistons 1mm for lower cr, you'll be able to put 8psi in it.

That way the gearbox stays allive and it can be done on a budget. Use the t28 from a 200sx and intercooler+piping need to be sorted out.

Injectors from 21 turbo, map sensor too and kj16v or fastchip for the custom map...

Oh, don't forget the clutch

simple answer buy mine. ive thrown thousands at it and still not finished it. mine runs currently 235 bhp with 260flb. has a decent clutch recently which has made it a lot better. more boost and more mapping is needed as its only on 13 psi i think.

mine has forged internals and a t28, standalone omex management etc. it has been a pain in the arse tbh. I would never do it again. id only think about it if you have a second car to use while yours is off the road.

Pics, spec & price?

ive got 242 hp and 325Nm of torque running 10 psi of my F7R

forged pistons, std rods and a GT2860Rs on std ecu with a fresh rr map from fastchip. i would deff do it again but then with some forged rods.

have a look

has foged internals, t28 turbo. chargecooler. custom down pipe and exhaust. uprated brakes. and lots and lots of other stuff. currently 235bhp and 260flb. but will easdily take a lot more. I need at least 5k for it. needs a couple of bits done ie new tappets fitting and a last tweak on the remap and a repaint. but thats me being picky.

whp ! Bit diff.

Ive got a std balanced crank with ACL's, modified williams flywheel with Tilton single plate clutch (550 Nm rated), wossner rods, ARP's, wiseco pistons 8.5:1 cr, modified valver head, megane 2.0 cams, verniers and GT28RS (.86 exh, .60 compressor), fmic from GRS (escort RS turbo), 803's (21 europacup, porsche 944 turbo, cossie greens), 250 kpa magnetti mapsensor (max 1.5 bar boost) and the rest off the list aint important. Std managment that gets the live map in october.

This would be the starting option im interested in i think... sorry to bump this thread but im revisiting the idea of a turbo conversion. Is there anyone on here that can advise me on parts and carry out the work? earn yourself a few quid in the process ??

I was going to ask the same today on this thread but forgot lol would be handy to have a list breakdown of parts needed, Where to get them from , ect, as i was looking on k-tec then looking on ebay finding the same thing for half the price lol
