hi

im hoping to atempt to turbocharge a car for the experience of it and im wondering if any of the turobchargers from older dodges are any good. i know some lebarrons, daytonas, and stealths (which i cant affor) have turbos. are any of them good and what other dodges have turbos ? otherwise i might go with a gen1 dms turbo

thanx

 

Just about every FWD 80's Mopar had turbocharged versions, except of course the Reliants and Aries. What you will want is the Garrett turbo from the better turbocharged Mopars like the Shelby Z Daytonas with the 2.2L Turbo II, but any Turbo II will have it. The Turbo II's are the intercooled versions, the intercooler is located on the drivers side right beside the radiator. These are one of the best, most powerful and reliable turbochargers you'll find from the factory. If you have a Z24 and your planning on turbocharging it, good luck, it's gonna take alot of fabrication and engine building for such a project.

 

its an older 3.1LT Z24 and no, im not planning on turbocharging it. ive read about a few people who have suceeded with a 'remote' turbo but not without difficulty. i would turbocharge a daytona or a dsm

 

Those are easy to turbocharge since they have several that come that way from the factory. It would be far easier to simply grab a turbo motor and freshen it up and go from there. The Turbo II's are the best all around and have the most parts for building one up. Don't forget, you will also need the PCM (computer) for that same year turbo car as well as it's wiring harness.
