I found this web sight for puting a turbo on an integra http://www.cse.uconn.edu/~yelevich/turbo/turbo.html . I was wondering if any one knows of somthing like this for the eclipse gs with the 420a. or if these instructions would work for the 420a. I was also wondering if it would be safe to run low boost on a stock 420a with about 120,000 miles on it lol.. it still runs strong
no. we have tried, and the 420a is not a good motor to turbo. due to the intricate air intake and combustion design, the increased pressure puslewidth is out of time with the forward moving flame front in the cylinders. its just not worth it. to get it to work, you'd need to re-stroke your cams and get them plenished to seat right. your best bet is to buy a NOS kit and bolt that up. its pretty easy. you'd be good to start with a 200 shot or maybe a 250.
sorry, but turbos and 420a's work about as well as a solar powered flashlight used to find dehydrated water... good luck and thanks for visiting this sight. thank you .... drive though.

WOW that's some fuggin funny ass shit. Classic!
But yeah dude use the search button on the site it would have saved you some flaming. And there's a TON of great info for you wanting to turbo your 420a. Pleanty of write ups have been done on this matter. and before you go just buying the first Ebay special turbo kit you should read up and learn all you can about the options and differences between them . Hahn Race Craft is a great source as well as Star Turbo. Do your research and you should be very happy with your our come.

that has to be one of the funniest things i have read on here ever.
Also, there is another Turbo Kit from "Star" thats also pretty good or you can piece one together yourself. There is a guy on here (or DSMTuners.com I cant remember) that wrote a tutorial about putting a system together...it was pretty good.
Please use the search button regarding this topic, you don't even have to log in/out to use it. These guys see these same posts week after week and get a little touchy when the same questions are asked again and again.
To summarize, use the search function and always assume your question has been asked a thousand times. Good Luck!

99% of that article directly relates to our setups yes. It looks to be a pretty all-inclusive write-up. With, of course several differences being the manifolds, the IC pipe routing, the Oil feed, and other little shit. Other than that it looks remarkably similar to write ups I have seen around here.
Go for it.
