6G72 Turbo Kit Information - Club3G Forum : Mitsubishi Eclipse 3G Forums

Tearstone · 05/10/2009, 10:20 PM

I've been working on this on and off for the past month, I basically wanted to get all the information we've learned into one place that we can refer back to when people ask. If there is anything I should add, take out or correct I am all ears.

Thank you Chato, Randy, Mike for the pics, I've just been collecting them over the years.

Thanks Russ. I've been doing some searching of my own lately as well, and this sums a good portion of it up!

Steveodotcom1 · 05/10/2009, 10:23 PM

If there is anything else I should add, please let me know. The way my brain stores information, sometimes I overlook the most obvious or trivial things people might have questions about.

repforenzo · 05/10/2009, 11:32 PM

Nice!

It seems kind of obvious now, but we should of had a reference turbo page earlier.

Chato · 05/11/2009, 03:41 AM

Nice document Russ! A couple of things I'd like to add is that if people decide to use that Master Power turbocharger, they will need to get a 3" V-band flange and weld it to the 2.5" down pipe. The turbine outlet for that turbo is 3". Also, a 4" to 3" reducer 90 degree coupler will be needed to connet the intake pipe to the compressor.

JVP · 05/11/2009, 05:09 AM

Very nice write up. Hopefully all the dumb threads that are created by those ignorant 17 year old kids stop as they refer to this write up.

At this point people would be building their own kit so the downpipe vs. outlet flange design would already be understood. But you do bring up a good point to mention that though.

Spyder720 · 05/14/2009, 05:01 PM

just a suggestion you should make it to where you can enlarge the pictures where your talking about the coldside pipe routing

WanderingPinoy · 05/14/2009, 05:18 PM

those are my pipes - you can delete the one with red lettering, as it is the same as the one with yellow lettering, only without the bags

Also, for the yellow lettering:
A Cold Side, connects to MAS, BOV Recirc, and Turbo inlet
B Cold Side connects to B and turbo outlet
C Cold Side, connects to H and intercooler
D Cold Side, BOV Flange, connects to intercooler
E Wastegate Recirc
F Exhaust Coupler
G Cold Side, connects to H
H Cold Side, goes behind intercooler/bumper support

Not pictured is the long pipe that goes from the intercooler to the throttle body

Thank you, updated

Chato · 05/26/2009, 09:20 PM

Hey Russ, here is some more info about this Master Power turbo. Here is the Comp. map.

As you can see, this turbo's max flow is around 40 lb/min.

Chato · 05/26/2009, 09:26 PM

Wouldn't a turbo that flows 40 lb/min max will max out around 400hp? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

yahh · 05/26/2009, 09:33 PM

Would you mind making one for the 4g64

I think you'll find that the list of parts would be very similar to a 4g64 list. Also, the guys on the rs/gs FI forum generally posted their parts list from the turbo builds.

Kietzmann · 05/27/2009, 03:17 AM

how much would the kit cost?

There isn't a kit being developed. Knowledge from years of piecing kits together is being combined so people can adequately make their own kits.

The cost is up to you and the money it takes for you to make it happen.

PharmEcis · 05/27/2009, 09:21 AM

There actually is a kit available. I just don't stock it and it's built to order. It's not cheap to make so I'm not going to have money just sitting on shelves.

If you are serious about boosting your 3G w/ a turbo, you should be contacting me. Of course, please only do so if you realize what it's going to take (ie don't expect it to be cheap).

We no longer offer turbo kits through Tearstone Performance, but we have gotten many emails asking how to build one. So we present to you the published parts list for building your own V6 Turbo kit. Please do not email me any questions or quotes for a turbo kit. Simply leave a comment about the article below.

Sure, I'll sponsor a car. Once I sell 100 turbo kits, maybe I'll have made enough profit to cover a kit for free. So since I'll never sell 100 kits, negative on sponsorship unless it is unsolicited by a client and granted by me because of my own agenda.

It sais thre that an AT eclipse can be turboed... with a MUST transmission cooler... is this true? wont the stock automatic tranny blow at the first signs of boost?

If you want the trans to last while you are throwing more heat and power at it, you'll add the cooler. It is like a clutch upgrade is a "must" for the manual cars. The stock clutch my work for a while, but eventually the clutch slips and wears out.

Yes it's true. You use it in addition to your stock tranny cooler. No the stock tranny won't blow at the signs of boost, but it's the temperature of the transmission fluid which will bring it to it's knees.

WanderingPinoy · 05/28/2009, 04:59 PM

FWIW, my auto tranny only lasted less than 6 months and 5000 miles without additional cooling.

NFSEclipseGT · 06/13/2009, 10:01 AM

I have been trying to find such a thing for a long time. Thanks, Russ! I now have a sense of direction.

Good write up Russ. I see a few pics of my old car in there. I actually miss it some especially right now since the Evo is on jack stands while I finish an install on it. This is the worst timing for a business trip to San Diego or I'd have it done tonight.

i do realize its not going to be cheap, but since im going to the army im not going to have my car for a couple of months but when i come back i have a lot of plans for it. i just want an estimate of the cost so i know how much money i have to save up. and of course i will do all the work myself with maybe a little help from my cousin. im also thinking about a custom twin turbo... do you think its worth it? (i know i would have to rebuild the entire engine so it could handle the boost)

Machfever · 04/08/2010, 01:11 AM

anyone know a very rough estimate for the pricing for all the parts required to put this turbo kit together? not including labor or anything just purely price of parts.

You could potentially do it for much cheaper, but to be safe, I say budget $5K for just the turbo kit. Budget $10K if you want to do it right with the engine and drive train upgrades.

Red3gspyder01 · 05/03/2010, 10:54 PM

really nice thread so much info its a little overwhelming but anyway down the road i am considering putting a turbo on my car.i am a little worried about mine being an auto the trans was rebuilt less than 5000 ago i know i would have too add a trans cooler.but it is my DD so i still want it too be reliable.nice thread thanks for all the great info

3Glove · 08/07/2010, 01:11 PM

WOW!i was actually starting to loose hope for my future turbo build,but now thanx to this thread im on track again and now with hope!

gomer3G · 08/29/2010, 02:19 PM

what if someone is looking into the twin turbo setup. is there instructions on how to do that.

werx · 12/05/2010, 03:24 AM

You know there is a Galant VR4 overseas that's a twin turbo. I wonder if the 2.5 turbo manifolds will fit the 3.0 engine?

soon2bboosted · 12/06/2010, 05:57 PM

Is there a way to get a diagram or some kind of dimensions of the hotside exhaust? i dont have a pipe bender so I want an ehaust shop to build one for me.

Tye1 · 09/29/2011, 12:57 AM

Thanks for putting in the time to get the information together for us! It definitely gets rid of a lot of questions.

I too was about to ask the same question. Sorry to comment on an old thread but I do believe its a good question. I guess technically one could print a picture of the pipes measure the diameter and then multiply the measured diameter of say 2.5" or 3.0" by the measured length which SHOULD yeild the proper dimensions BUT that leaves a little too much to miscalculation and human error
