Hey, I’m building a shitty missile car atm. It’s rusted, it’s rotten so I don’t want to drop a ton of money on it. Basically I’m going to get mostly used parts and spend around $600 on a turbo setup. This is going to be bare minimums because the car was free.
So basically I’m going to pull an old t-3 out of a saab, get some rando manifold from ebay, and then go ham with oil lines and an ebay intercooler and piping. I know it’s not ideal and won’t be reliable.
I’ve heard the ecu in the ka’s is good til about 210-220hp. Is that true? I’m not against buying another ecu but 210 is fine with me if I don’t need to spend the money. Keep in mind I’m not getting this road legal, or track ready. It’s just for driving around the farm.
200whp is doable with sr 370cc injectors and a tune or safc. If you chip your ecu and get bigger injectors, z32 maf, you can extract way more from a t3.
