jeez thats awsome really??
i really want to direct swap the f22a1
to a newer less milage one, so that i can have a stronger engine.
mine runs great
but has 200K on it
so what do ui think/>>?
coul di boost my stock f22a1 motor
i only wana run like 2-4 pounds but tell me what u think i really have no idea>?
This thread is full of FAIL and MISINFORMATION. Or maybe lack of correction is a better way to put it.
PSI means NOTHING. You need to choose a POWER GOAL. Then build your car to meet that goal (i.e. choose the right internals, turbo, and manifold for that goal).
Thats the correct place to start. Not "2-4 PSI". That will not get you anywhere.
hey guys is there any site or anything that will help me to install my own turbo kit>??
i understand most of it but i dont get some of it liek the oil drain and a few other things
any help please
thanks
??????? im trying to learn to do this myself...............
no thanks
Thank you thats what i was saying 2-4 is just about useless you would have tune down a small stock turbo to even achieve that and it would be almost unnoticeableThis thread is full of FAIL and MISINFORMATION. Or maybe lack of correction is a better way to put it.

Here. I'll write out a basic outline of how it works, just because I'm feeling nice.
A turbocharger requires some sort of lubrication so that the bearings will last. Oil is used because we already have oil lubricated cars. On some turbos, oil AND coolant/water is used to keep the temperature down, and lubricate the bearings. Well, the oil has to come from somewhere. Generally it's from your stock oil pressure sending unit location. You can "T" off of that, or run a sandwich plate on your oil filter. Most people use steel braided line for the feed line to the turbo. That will get you oil to the turbo, and now you need some way to get it back to the engine.
This is where the drain comes into play. The drain is typically faced downwards (towards the pavement) off of the turbo. A line is then run from there to the oil pan (generally high so that you're not trying to run oil into the lower portion of the pan which is usually going to already have oil in it), in a way that it can freely flow out of the turbo and into the pan.
It is absolutely CRITICAL that your lines be sealed with some thread sealing tape and that there are no leaks/clogs, etc. A drop in oil pressure in the turbo can be catastrophic, and you'll find yourself replacing the turbo faster than you had ever imagined; However, too much pressure can also be harmful. Honda's generally produce 60-80 PSI of oil pressure in the top end. A turbocharger is generally configured for ~15 PSI. This obviously creates a problem. The way to solve this is to run a restrictor on the oil feed line of the turbo. This will restrict the amount of oil that can enter the turbo at any given time.
Again, this is just an intro. Do some research to learn more about the lubrication system before you go and do this.
