Will a STi JDM Twin Sctroll Turbo fit onto a WR1?

will it just bolt on . and bobs your uncle ? or is there more too it than that ?

Does anyone know if it can be done, as i would like some power low down, and i have heard that is what the twin scrolls provide int he STI JDM cars.

 

No mate it won't

You would need a set of equal length headers, up pipe and new downpipe.

Plus all the mapping required.

Nathan..

 

cheers mate, back too the drawing board then for me.

 

You could always get Dr Rawle to map it properly.

Hey Nathan

When you gonna come racing to Lydden with Me & Jon B ?

ive looked into maps and nothing can be done to the turbo spool up in standard form

 

Oh! Right, that's surprising. A set of equal length headers will give you a few extra lbs ft of torque low down.


As soon as I can afford the Optimax and booster

 

yes but i can kiss goodbye my warranty

 

i am surprised a remap cannot do much about low down torque as on of the best things about tsl remap is the low down driveabilityeg town compared to ppp map-give richard bulmer at tsl a ring

True mate but a change of turbo would always screw it.

I'm surprised a proper custom remap can't help at all.

Even adding a couple of degrees of ignition timing can help low down AFAIK.

Nathan..

 

Octane booster, what's that. I'm using ethanol/water injection,

I mean just water.

Lol.

Well us chaps with lowly power need all the help we can get

I'm sure J B has told you how slow my car was before the Bob Rawle mapping day

 

Brian,
I know where there is a very nice 555 V Ltd (brand new MY04) for sale its up for 30k and has a twin scroll turbo very tunable also

Most Odd, my MY03 STi has 330BHP via remap & Optimax & it sets off like a scalded cat from 3000 rpm - smooth + powerful all the way to the red bit. Still a lardy UK car tho (Which means it had the no-action-to-4000-dead-by-5750-ppp before).
Depends who you ask?
