16G Turbo on our Capri.....
« on: April 09, 2009, 02:31:00 PM »

anyone here have a turbo other then the hybrid one. i found this guy running an EVO III turbo. i had one on my eclipse and loved it. i think it would make a ton of power for our car. it can boost 14-18 PSI all day long!

i tried to check out the website of who made his manifold but did not see one there.

just the photos can at least give an exhaust shop an idea to make one. there are so many of the 16G turbos out there the support is endless for them

Yeah thats Ian, he parted the car out about a year ago. Said he needed the money.

After he installed the big turbo he was running a custom Rocketchip...he said it ran awesome, AFR's were good

I believe he had those bits made by Neukin. They dont do stuff for the B6T anymore.

check out the link in first post, he has a manifold that can fit a 16G turbo on it.

would love something that would do the same thing.

Order a JGS tools log manifold, you can order whatever turbo flange you want. I'm pretty sure they have most mitsu turbo flanges available

pretty much, you can order them in different stages of completion but you'll still need a little welding done either way you go about it

yes all 1.6 dohc flanges are the same. (with the exception of the B6 in the 94+ MX3, that had a revised head)

So even a cheap OBX miata 1.6 manifold would work, they make them for the 16g, just cut & re-weld the turbo flange

thats what i was thinking, use one from a miata set up, i guess if i ent with a slimline fan set up and removed the AC crap and put the fan on the front side of the radiator that there would be enough room to put a 16G in there
