Kooldino's Protege Turbo Kit w/ 2871R Turbo

[Kooldino]

Selling my tried and true turbo kit off of my own personal car.

Includes a Garrett ball bearing 2871R turbo with less than 100 miles on it (I ran the kit with the 2860 turbo on it, but I bought this one as well).

Specs:

• TIG welded Polished Stainless steel piping
• Set up for both draw through or blow through maf
• Genuine Garrett 2871R dual ball bearing turbo - barely used
• Stainless oil feed and return lines
• Powder coated Greddy Type S BOV
• K&N Air Filter
• Heat sheild for air filter
• HKS Wastegate actuator
• Cast exhaust manifold - jet hot coated
• T bolt clams
• Silicon Hose couplers
• PWR Front Mount Intercooler
• Bung for water meth injection
• Wideband sensor in downpipe

With this kit on the car, my car ran low 13 second quarter miles at full weight on street tires.

$2200 obo
REDUCED TO 1900 obo WITH TURBO or 1200 WITHOUT TURBO


Attached are two pics of the kit off the car, and one pic of the kit on the car.

So other than bigger down/ mid/ exhaust pipe, gauges for monitoring, what else would I need to shop to add this to my car?

 

[Sliver5]

EMS of some sort, either msp ecu with a split second/unichip or a full standalone.

 

[MonctonP5]

MSP ecu will be drug of choice. Might add turbo timer to keep setup cool and calm. What would be maximum boost stock internals could handle with a .71 trim snail?

It comes complete with the downpipe. A bigger exhaust is recommended, but not required.

You need an oil tee from the back of the block, and oil bung in your pan for the return line, gauges, and some kind of tuning solution (MSP ECU, an FMU, Haltech, etc).

Turbo timer is kind of a waste of money. After all, it's a water cooled turbo anyway.

Maximum boost on a stock motor would be 8-9psi assuming you have timing control. If not, don't go past 6.

how are the ic pipes routed?

I haven't taken the VTCS off due to the fact that I was looking at the possibility of boosting in the future.

...what?
how does vtcs apply in this situation lol maybe im missing something

but i wouldnt run this kit with just a MSP ECU, you would get fuel cut like crazy, you NEED at minimum a SSAFC with possibly bigger injectors depending on how much boost

Bigger Fuel Pump?

 

[justanothermp5]

on stock internals prob not( since you can only run low boost) , this kit really wouldn't be to ideal for people on stock engines, you'll throw a rod way to easy

 

[Kooldino]

how are the ic pipes routed?

They both run through the chassis on either side of the radiator. It's the cleanest way of doing it, however it does require you to cut a little bit of sheet metal out of the way to make extra room for the piping. The metal you cut away isn't structural.

 

[Kooldino]

Honestly, the cheapest and easiest solution to running this kit would be to run a Vortech 10:1 FMU and call it a day. That will be fine for 6psi. Beyond that, you want some kind of engine management.

Does she cook? Do laundry? Polish the car?

 

[yudkib]

yeah man, beautiful stuff

the kit, naturally. bump for an awesome member. howd you like the 71R instead of the 60RS?
edit: and what were the A/R's on both turbos?

 

[Kooldino]

Thanks.

The 71R has more top end, but the 60 had better response. I preferred the 60, but most people like bigger turbos than i do.

edit: and what were the A/R's on both turbos?

They're both .64 a/r

 

[yudkib]

im surprised you tapped out the top end on the 28RS. how many psi were you running? and have you considered trying the .86 A/R for the best of both worlds?

 

[Kooldino]

I didn't top out the 2860.

 

[Kooldino]

Nobody's interested?

 

[HKPRO5]

Surprisingly!
