zx9r - turbocharging......diy style

[rbs13]

Hello all, its been a while scince ive been on here, but ive decided to turbo my mk indy zx9r.

trying to build on a slight budget......8psi max to save pulling the head of to fit a thicker gasket.

does any one know of any one thats done one in the uk?

what turbo was used ect?
- seen a few using a td04 from a mitsubushi but not sure what one?
- wanted to use a gt2554 but cant find a used unit.

are you definately turboing it? it maybe better to sell the engine ,box,ehaust etc and fitting a busa or zzr1400. around 200 bhp also

How about supercharging it with the blower from a Mini ?

How are you going to manage it ? megasquirt/jolt ?

I,am about half way through my turbo conversion at the moment,turbo is fitted oil supply and return are done , working on fuel supply and return, i,am going to try a t25 garrett from a 200sx ,other parts are metro turbo fuel pressure regulator,hi pressure fuel pump from an astra, aluminum plenum with 65mm inlet .

have you got any pictures of yours?

i was going to use a similer turbo to the T25 but worried its was going to be too laggy,the s13 200sx 1.8cc hit full boost at around 2500rpm and 3k with the gt28rs.

there is a gt2554 ball bearing version of the t25 but comes at a price £995.

was hoping to find some think that will come onto boost at around 2800rpm and max out with 12psi and run it at 7psi.

how are you going to plum the oil feed and return?

are you local to stevenage?
would love to come see yours.

did you make your headers and inlet?
