hey all you turbo guys.... (2.4)

When you guys got your intercooler did you get one with inlet outlet on same side
or on opposite sides...

Which is easiest?? cause there isnt much room on the passenger side of the engine bay

Opposite sides, there is plenty of room to bring piping through

cool thanks...

Umm bad confession i was reading that long as post about the kid that bought that turbo kit off ebay...


I kinda did the same things... but different it is for a 2.4 and i wasnt able to find entire kit from reputable companies besides going with and RSM centrifugal supercharger
or the standard roots type from GM

I went to Aaron as well as you guys a while ago and asked what would be a good turbo... You asked and I went and did some research (never did look at compressor maps)
So i ordered a good turbo through turbonectics from turbo tech (about 2K)

i have the engine built... I bought new
RC Engineering injectors
Cartech FMU
Elect tec 3
Walbro Fuel pump
Autometer guages
Greddy Type RS blow off valve
Tial 38mm Wastegate (plan to run open till i get a 3 inch exhaust)
And a CAST Log style turbo manifold from ebay from a guy in Canada (he once was on the Jbody site selling them i think)

The problem was a purchased a pipe kit and intercooler off ebay.
The pipe kit is 2.5 inch with different bends and lengths... Ijust havent seen other people setups to know exactly how and where to run the pipes
The intercooler was also off ebay but posted it only had a 1.5 PSI drop and has inlet outlet on opposite sides....

I just really need some guidance and help from the Experienced guys put together their own kits
