So I have a chance to buy an upgraded turbo for my AWD 1g dsm. Its a TD05HR 16GC 10.5T I'm wondering if anyone knows any information about this turbo? I tried looking it up and I think it came off an EVO 9? I can get it for $300 with manifold and aftermarket 02 housing. Pretty good deal and its in good shape. Im just wondering if it would be a good bolt on turbo to run and how much power is it capable of on a 1g? And would it have alot of lag? Thanks!
Anything can be done with enough money, but as has been discussed thoroughly in the past late evo turbos are reversed from dsm turbos so you would need a specially made manifold/o2housing/exhaust/intake/ic pipes to make it even fit.
An evo3 turbo is a direct bolt on for a 1g and can be had fairly cheap (don't buy ebay "16g/20g" turbos).
Quick summary....the fans will have to go, the rad will have to go. The downpipe will have to be about 2 feet longer to get anywhere near the outlet of the o2 housing.
The best part- after you get done doing all this custom fabrication, you'll still have a 16G on the car.
