twin turbo 7mgte - Click HERE for Original Thread

PnOyGhost
is it worth it to twin turbo a 7mgte or shud i just leave it a single turbo? also how much shud i bore my block and which pistons and other internals shud i go with when prepping for bigger or more turbos? only looking for helpful replies plz

i would go to supramania, its mostly a mk3 specific site. or go to 7mpowered.

i would say not worth the hassle of the custom twin turbo kit when you can buy a nice BB replacement turbo that fits the stock manifold and available downpipes perfectly, or if your on more of a budget do an upgrade to the stock turbo. I would start by upgrading the headstuds to ARP's and getting a metal headgasket though.

at the age/condition of most mk3's though you should start by replacing any suspect looking hoses/gaskets/seals as well.

the head studs were replaced and a metal head gasket was used when the engine was rebuilt. i found a twin turbo exhaust manifold on ebay for like $340. but has only 3 bolt flange. i was thinking of just cutting that off and putting a 4-bolt t4 flange. the piping wudnt really be a problem. since all my dads friends ar welders and stuff lol. i already have a greddy intercooler installed with all the piping and an hks super sequential blow-off valve and a turbo controller. i believe that i still have to stock turbo im not to sure i havent really looked at it.

I would suggest not doing it.

It will end up costing you more in the long run. The mainfold has been on ebay for ever though I have never seen anyone in the mk3 community attempt it.


If your looking for easy power do as said above

of if your looking for even easy power just go with an upgraded ct-26 either a 57 trim or 60-1

Im running a 60-1 cost me like 700 buxs and is able to supply me with plenty of power.

There's a thread on SupraMania aobut this now. I think the person asking concluded

f*ck it. I'm not doing all that piping.
