chrysler conquest tsi

[ckyskater733]

hey i was wondering if theres anyway i can maybe take a turbo off of this car and throw it on my '92 LX. i know its not as simple as i put it, but is will one of them fit? its a 1988, and has been sitting in my g-pas garage for a couple years and only 60k miles on the engine. let me know what i need if i can do this, thanks guys.

I believe those chryslers used dsm parts...would be worth a whirl.

Since the talon is a eclipse etc. The manifold wouldn't fit because I believe the tsi was a v6 .

Junkyard trips are fun

its a inline 4 actually. its a mitsubishi built TD05 Turbocharger if that helps...i tihkn im gonna go look at it tomorrow and gank that shit!

[ckyskater733]

darn....maybe ill check it out anyway. if it seems like its gonna be a bitch, then i wont do it.

Those cars had like 2 or 3 different motors.. if anything you're looking for the 2.0 SOHC 4g63 (I believe it was the first gen of that common dsm motor).

If it does have that setup then it will have a 14g which flows about 20% more then a 14b. The turbo will most likely need a rebuild... would be easier and cheaper to find a nice used 14b off a 1st gen DSM or even a T25.

good thing is you can use those big ass starion/conquest stock fmic's like what eric had before he got his other one

ahh hell yeah on the FMIC's those things rocked.. in general the cars were weak and problem prone. A freshly rebuild 14g is decent (and about the same size as a 14b). I would find a starion just to resell it.

[ckyskater733]

if it was the 14g, would it still need a rebuild even if it has been sitting for a long ass time with low ass mileage?

.an old, laggy, inefficient turbo that really isn't worth the trouble

The 14B is an awesome turbo. There's a DSM in the 11's with a 14B w/o nitrous. Of course an Accord won't run 11's with one, but just saying it's a very very underrated turbo. Not saying there aren't better turbos out there, just saying that a 14B is a good turbo for the $$$.

you are most likely looking at a rebuild for the starion 14g.. good chances that many 14b turbos you find will need a rebuild as well (think about it, that car has been out of production for 10 years). I've seen rebuild 14b turbos on ebay go for as little as $100, the 14g is somewhat of a rare find since the starions are popular donar cars.
