Ok this may have been posted once before and I didn't find it with a search. For that I am sorry.



1. Is there a good manual/write up for rebuilding an FC's 13B(N/A) for high boost?

2. What would it take and how little could it cost to upgrade the FC to twin t3/t4 hybrids?



I know I will need to upgrade the apex seals, fuel system and such. I just don't know what in particular would need to be changed and how.



Thanks.

easy way would be to build the NA block with the lower compression turbo rotors.



2. you need the turbos, flanges, some pipe, oil lines, and a bit of creativity

for the amount of time, energy and resources it will take for you build an N/A with lower compression - only to fab up a twin T3/T4 system. just start with a decent 13B-T and rebuild it.



as for the turbo question: start with what J9FD3S said, then add fuel, engine management and intercooling.

Whats the fascination with twins all of a sudden?



Spend the time, effort, money, on something worth while elsewhere in your project. Im SURE there is something else in the car that needs the attention.

The whole car needs attention but I am building this for the $2006 grassroots motorsports challenge so there is limited money to work with. I have everything else planned already. I just decided that a twin turbo setup would be best for the drag race and the auto-x. If you guys have other ideas let me know.

Just to add. Where is a good place to get turbo models and I looked at some info and decided twin super 16g's would be more what I wanted.

I will do it like when I twin turbo'd before. LOTS OF FABRICATION!



THe HP goal is about 350-400. We want to be able to run 11's. I do not like Nitrous but we may need it this time.

(2) td05 16g, About $500 a piece. Thats half your budget. And fuel system to support boost is at LEAST $1000.
