105820, Evo 8/9 turbo in a NT? anyone tried success or failure? Posted by boostdtalon, Feb-10-09 03:54 PM
i tried looking to see if anyone had posted about this already, but i didn't find what i was looking for. has anyone tried this? i know with the older 4G it's not worth the pain it would take to use one. but on a 420A i think it would be easier as the motors face the same direction. just wondering if anyone has tried this. as i may be upgrading the turbo on my evo and would have a great turbo to give my NT alittle bit of life. more than likely though if i go the turbo route a Hahn turbo kit would probably be my decision.

Any turbo can fit if the right manifold is used.

I've been looking into using an EVO 9 turbo, to make use of the twin scroll feature you'd have to have someone custom make you a manifold. other than that it's not a huge turbo so spacing wouldn't be an issue. it should work great considering it's designed to get great performance from a 2.0l application with fairly quick spooling and it's capable of putting out a LOT of boost for a factory turbo

already in progress on another board. search the forum for the link. Last i checked, the guy was waiting on spring to work on the wiring, the motor drivetrain was already in it.

why would you even post it then.....nothing special about the EVO turbo other than its small. Why not ask if its hard to put a t25 in an eclipse.

cause an evo 8/9 is larger than a T25 and i think it's a valid question. it's definitely alot larger than a evo3 16g. so no reason for you to be negative about my question.

Actually it's basically a "big" 16g with a twin scroll turbine housing.

since when has the 16G ever considered a large framed turbo? I like to think of it as a turbo in training. Its no different than any Hahn base kit. So it has a different turbine housing....big deal its still small. Its as easy to fit as a t25, 16g, 17c, 20g.

I'd like to see this done. It's a great turbo, and I'm sure it's an economical choice.
Curious as to if the OP is who I think it might be...

I think it'd be a cool setup. Guess everyone has gone for a HRC/Star turbo kit or large frame setup And who do you think I might be?

Anything that'll support 380-400whp isn't small in my opinion. The 16g is the backbone of the Mitsubishi performance industry, shit Kurt Brown made 499whp on one. I won't say its large, but it's not on the same page as a T25.
