Which turbo kit has a water cooled turbocharger?

It seems like a necessity when you build the block and run 300+ WHP while being driven weekly/daily, because I really care on how long my engine can last and I'd like it to run efficiently like an OEM turbo car if thats even possible.

Mr_Meaty

Turbo Toyota's GT kits (not the one I have) are oil/water cooled. but you dont' need to build the block for 300whp.
And no aftermarket turbo is going to run like an OEM turbo car.

What so special about the OEM ones anyway? I don't think their block is tuned with forged turbo piston, rods, sleeves, valves,etc...

Is the Why Industries turbo the only one available with water cooling and oil cooling or does the other kits give them as options?

I believe DEZOD, ZPI, & TURBONETICS all have the ports for water cooling as well.

You can get a water cooled from Dezod also. Turbo Toyotas isnt the only ones.

Mr_Meaty

What's special about an OEM turbo is that the engines, tranny, and emissions are designed to handle the power they are putting out. You can't take a turbo and slap it on a mitsubishi lancer and expect it to run like an evo, even though they are the same engine. The evo specifically designed to handle the power that it is putting down.

I'm not sure about the other companies by way of water/oil cooled. I think turbonetics is upgrading their turbos in their kits for water/oil kits. But pretty much whatever kit you get from whatever company, you can ask them if you can get a different turbo in there, one with oil/water, and they should be able to work something out with you.

^^^ I don't think Stripper Performance can do it since the turbo is close to the old OEM muffler place... or do they???


Hmmm..... Is there a strengthened MT for the tC?

Mr_Meaty

Are you now considering the stripper kit as well?
I think thier kit will be out by the time you are ready to get one
And the strengthened manual transmision is called a clutch, which you already have a stage 4, right?

there must be a lot of dead bunnies somewhere..

Mr_Meaty

I'm a murderer! Stop me before I kill again!!!

You mean everytime someone answers his question, he comes up with something else completly random.

i think " FORPINKS " should just start an official thread in his name for people to answer all his off the wall questions. hopefully that will stop all these other threads from poping up.

Mr_Meaty

now THAT is a great idea!

Yipee!

Geez, you don't need to bash him. He's doing the right thing by asking. Even tho he should search a bit more. But, idiots are the one who slap on a turbo kit and think they're pros all of a sudden.
