Turbo

[ScammingL67beast]

Thinking about turboing my Grand Prix but piecing together a turbo I'm able to get a dsm td05 16 turbo for cheap from a buddy what do you guys think of that turbo I believ it's got a t25 flange so id have to buy an adapter to make it a t3

Too small.

 

[theaceofspades]

I think these cars if iirc need like a 63 or a 66 mm

 

[SnowTh1ef]

Anywhere from 57 mm to 70mm is decent. 62-67 seems to be the sweet spot

But he's getting it cheap, so would it at least work?

 

[theaceofspades]

It would spool to quick would be the issue I think as it being to small there wouldn't be much of a useable powerband cause if it spools off the line rather than at 4k or so then you'll just blow the tires off

Better turbos out there for less

I think a bone stock 3800 would spool an 80 by 4k.
My 67 lights under 3k.
a 16g would be like running bananas in the exhaust.
Total waste of time.
