Actually a genuine 16g turbo (not those cheap Ebay knock off turbos) can run a lot more boost than 19psi. Hell a 16g is just starting to hit its efficiency range around that 20 psi range. I've seen plenty of car run over 30 psi on a 16g! Trust me run 18 psi on one and the turbo's kick is so-so.... crank it up to 25 and that turbo will kick like a horse!!

Is it possible to add turbo to a 1992 non turbo eclipse?

yes but it is expensive and time consuming as you need MUCH more than just the turbocharger... it would be easier and cheaper to find a used fwd ot awd turbo eclipse,talon, or laser. the parts needed would be a 1g or 2g exhaust manifold,14b or 16g td05 turbo, 91-94 turbo ecu, 450cc "blue top" fuel injectors, 1g turbo intake manifold, 1g turbo throttle body, 1g fuel rail, 1g turbo gauge cluster, a new exhaust system from the turbo back, new pistons and rods (non turbo pistons will hold aprox 3lbs of boost due to compression ratios and piston shape... 2g pistons on 1g "big" rods work nice) complete intercooler piping with compressor bypass valve, after market clutch such as the act 2600, and a whole bunch of odds and ends i will not mention. it is a labor intensive job (i did it with a 92 eagle talon) but i had a another dsm (91 Plymouth laser rs turbo) that was wrecked in rear. it took me and 3 friends a little over 6 months to complete on weekends and our spare time. i ended up selling it and getting a 1990 talon tsi awd. so like i said it is possible, but it depends on how much work you want to put in it. yes but it is expensive and time consuming as you need MUCH more than just the turbocharger... it would be easier and cheaper to find a used fwd ot awd turbo eclipse,talon, or laser. the parts needed would be a 1g or 2g exhaust manifold,14b or 16g td05 turbo, 91-94 turbo ecu, 450cc "blue top" fuel injectors, 1g turbo intake manifold, 1g turbo throttle body, 1g fuel rail, 1g turbo gauge cluster, a new exhaust system from the turbo back, new pistons and rods (non turbo pistons will hold aprox 3lbs of boost due to compression ratios and piston shape... 2g pistons on 1g "big" rods work nice) complete intercooler piping with compressor bypass valve, after market clutch such as the act 2600, and a whole bunch of odds and ends i will not mention. it is a labor intensive job (i did it with a 92 eagle talon) but i had a another dsm (91 Plymouth laser rs turbo) that was wrecked in rear. it took me and 3 friends a little over 6 months to complete on weekends and our spare time. i ended up selling it and getting a 1990 talon tsi awd. so like i said it is possible, but it depends on how much work you want to put in it.

Can you drive a Saab without a turbo?

if your turbo is damaged then BIG no. Thru your turbo goes coolant and oil. I've seen dead saabs that got engine damaged because the turbo blew and all the oil leaked out.


What size turbocharger would fit onto a 1992 eagle talon?

any size you want but the popular ones are the 16 and big 16g also look at 20g but you can go much bigger but since your asking this ? dought you need anybigger than 16g To add to this... The MHI 14b comes stock on the cars that have FACTORY turbos in USDM form. Popular fitments include the MHI 16g's for higher perofrmance or 20G, though these are usually for drag cars. Other popular turbos include t3t4's, or an assortment of hybrid turbos.


Is 8psi safe on stock internals?

8psi is not a good unit to measure boost, on a grand scheme of things. You need to see the CFM, meaning, how much actual air is getting induced into the engine. Example. Small turbo at 15psi Big turbo at 10psi. Because the big turbo will put more overall air into the engine. For sake of answering your question, 8psi, on a small turbo, with good fuel management, is somewhat safe. (too many variables to say for sure though) engine type, turbo size, fuel management, etc.
