Want to boost 2.0

inthewerks · Post by **inthewerks** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:45 pm

Just curious as I cant find the answer to my question here or google. 2005 sohc is what motor? There are some possibilities for me boosting but the easier way is with a 420a block. Is the manifold bolt up the same for my motor as the 420a?

The 420a Mitsu motor has a reverse flow head so the manifolds won't work. The most common way to boost the 2.0 is to get an adapter plate to run the srt turbofold.

yeah, you mainly have 2 options... either get an exhaust manifold adapter plate (doubtedneon made them before) and use an SRT turbo setup, or get an SOHC turbo manifold from ASPTurbo here on 2gn...

you're going to need a bunch of other stuff, so ask more specific questions

Be prepared to spend atleast $3000 if you want to do it right, If you cant afford that then its best to just not go forced induction.............It can be done cheaper but it wont be done right.

I am prepared to spend 4500 on a hahnracecraft kit if my idea does not pan out. My brother has an srt with some upgrades so his mani, stock turbo, lines, stock ic, stock fuelrail with injectors, stock full exhaust, and some other bits and peices are just laying in his garage for now with an option for me to buy for next to nothing. The only problem I see is about the computer, but he has something for his srt that allows him to plug into his obd port and make adjustments through software. He says they might have a software setup for my sohc to go turbo. Its plug and play, but can also take readings while driving and gives you the option on what to adjust like fuel, timing etc. Anyone know if those limited edition 2005 srt's (stone white with blue stripes and limited edition plaque on cupholder), put out any better gains that regular srt's? Cuz his is fast as f***.

he has a Diablosport Predator. No unfortunately it does not work on the regular neon computer.

Your options there are either go MegaSquirt, or someone like myself or any other CMR tuner can retune an SRT computer to make your car run...

The only thing you need for an SRT computer to properly run your car is the 3 solenoids for PCM boost control which you have to wire into your engine bay harness, or just use the SRT engine bay harness....

Megasquirt is also an option for you if your state doesn't require emissions testing via the DLC under the dash (OBD port). In the end, MS is more powerful because you can tune on the fly. The emissions thing is the only real downside...

It looks like I probably need to go the solenoid route as AZ requires all obdII vehicles to be plugged in for emissions. BTW NiteHawk, what would you charge for that srt compy tune?

I thought of doing a swap a little while ago...then I considered turboing my 2.0...now i'm in the market for an SRT-4

Hahn racecraft has a deal going on right now for a stage 3 for 3.1k port fueler and all. I know all the buzz about hahn being bad or what not but I'm still getting a stage 3 sent right now. Will update when I get it up and running. I jsut want to be able to say i have a 2.0 turbo setup. would be a sweet sleeper (kinda). Honestly its just because I started with a 2002sxt. If I would have found a srt4 when i was looking for a car in a pinch after crashing my last car I would have got it but this came up first so im just gonna stick with it and see what I can do.

regardless of what turbo setup you go with...........just remember you're going to be limited to what you can push using the stock motor.........

if you want to stick to using a 2.0.......get another motor, rebuild it, and do it right. you'll be happier in the end.

Is anybody aware of where to get adapter plates?

The only one Ive even seen(in pictures) is on here. I believe it was on quicksilvers car the bumblebee on the cars first turbo set up. I'm not sure if its still on there, or if I even got the right persons car.

NiteHawk · Post by **NiteHawk** » Fri Jun 17, 2011 7:05 am

they were made by DoubtedNeon. you would have to talk to him about getting more made.

for te plate why you just dont go to machin shop with youre manif old gasket and turbofold gasket and make them .... around 240 $ its good price you can expect to pay ...

inthewerks · Post by **inthewerks** » Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:08 am

Or........if you know someone who is a good welder, you can make your own. Im in design with my uncle who owns a wrought iron shop. Just trying to figure out the best setup for the header collection into the turbo mount. The hahnscraft kit boosts 8 psi so a stock motor will be safe with that. With the money I'm looking to spend for my setup, i wont have the funds to build a block to handle higher boost. That may be in the future.

is can help you i have that plate so for a miitsubishi manifold but the principe is the same i can take picture of it
is not harder to make

i dont thinck a welder can realy help you in better to go with machinist
bring him the gasket and start with that
ask for lazer cut its more cheap ,,,, and its accurate but you need to take real mesument of exhaust hole head and manifold hole
because gasket is usualy bigger than real size the machisnist can easy rectified youre hole spec to the real size needed to make it flow whitout restriction

sorry if i destroy english word but iam french try to give the best info
