What do you need to turbo a car?

A turbo, an intercooler to coll the engine as turbos produce a lot of extra heat, an aftyermarket ecu as the fuel map of your car will have to be tuned, a dyno as your car will have to be tuned on a dyno.Installing a turbo in a naturally aspirated engine will greatly reduce engine life as the parts are not designed to run at such high temperatures and pressures.


Can you put a intercooler on your Mitsubishi eclipse non turbo?

An intercooler is useless on a normally aspirated engine. This is because the air charge entering the engin has NOT been heated as a byproduct of being compressed (by a turbo- or super-charger). Since it is not hotter than the ambient air, running it through an intercooler will not cool it. Now, there are some turbo folks who run air-over-water intercoolers, who run the intercooler liquid through ice water to cool it BELOW ambient temperature. It is hard to say if they gain enough power to offset the weight of all that ice. It is easy to say that without a blower, carrying all that extra weight around (ice, intercooler, pump, etc) would be a losing proposition.


Can you run a turbo car with no turbo?

It depends on the specific car. Some will be undriveable without the turbo, but in any case it will be severely out of tune. With the turbo missing you can expect, at best, reduced performance, reduced fuel economy, and increased emissions.

1991 Mazda 626 engine starts hard idles and runs good but if you accelerate even a little hard it wants to die I have to baby the foot feed but it takes me forever to go 50?

If it's a turbo, then it could be a rupture in the intercooler tube or hose attaching the tube to the throttle mechanism. The car will barely run if that is the case. Actually, if it idles ok, then it may not be the intercooler, as it will barely even idle with a ruptured tube or hose. -- John
