98GrdPoundr Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) the car is a 91 eagle talon tsi auto trans, i found that the housing on my turbo is cracked so i was wondering about options for this since i'll be honest i don't know anything about these things.... so i was looking at this upgrade from buschur racing https://secure.buschurracing.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_38&products_id=277&osCsid=d7e2fdfca7df448ed1f685f7e2958084 would that be a direct swap and would i need to upgrade anything else ? any advice would be appreciated Edited August 23, 2009 by 98GrdPoundr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmuckingham Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 The flanges match up but you might need an oil drain and oil feed kit but I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bruh Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 on the automatic cars they have a 13g turbo. which has smaller oil and coolant lines than the 5spd cars that have the 14b. you can probably find that turbo cheaper and go to jnztuning and order the lines.

John Bruh Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 also if you go with the evo3 you will need a afc or some sort of piggy back fuel computer since your going to be flowing more air than stock. re wire the fuel pump. there are some free mods you can do as well.

jeffro Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 we had to make an oil return line and buy new oil lines on boosted aces 96 tsi. we took the stock t25 on it and put a 14b. i will soon be doing the reverse conversion on my dads 91 tsi because the turbo has some problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comebackkid Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Just go ahead it get a 20g so later when you start upgrading more then the turbo is not on the list.. But afc and 550 with the 20g and you'll be set for awhile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooling 1g Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 if you go 14b or 16g you will need a new Coolant return line(part number MD117764) and Banjo bolt(part number MF650114) for the swap(stock 14b line and banjo). All the other stock lines from your 13g will bolt up the the 14b. Also look for a set of used 450cc injectors to go with the 14b's increased airflow. The stock 390cc injectors you have now will be working overtime to supply enough fuel for the 14b. Used 450's can be had for around $50 to $75 for a set...if needed i have set ill let go for cheap.
