a b8 turbo would be awesome, as long as you have enough clutch lol.

I found this clutch on ebay, but i'll wait and see how my oem handles the road before buying.

I do think 7 psi is feasable, but its really pushing the limits on stock fueling. I've run 8psi on a few nissan sr20's with non turbo ecu's/stock injectors.

DO NOT BUY A BAHNHOF CLUTCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

I bought one I put onto my B6.

It slips at high rpm shifts! Junk!!!

Spend the extra few bucks and buy an Exedy!!!!!!

Turbo drain line, do you pull off the oil pan and weld to it, or is there a fitting in the block you can use?

tap the pan for the drain.

Bumping this thread up just because it's such a unique and innovative build. Great read for those who like the OEM motor and want to have a little bit of fun. Anybody else pursue a junk yard build at all?

BernieM (my best friend) is on here now, we're doing a B3T setup on his white Festy

Well you've inspired me. I picked up an aspire manifold and a single turbo from a 3000gt twin turbo, its a small td04-9b should spool up nicely with the 1.3l. Going to start the install tomorrow.

I'm definetly going to try a small/mid sized turbo setup on my b3 before I swap it for another motor. Wonder what the little old b3 can put down before she pops lol.

Another thing you have to take into acount is turbo size...small turbo at 5psi is nowhere near a large turbo at 5psi. I'm definetly going to try a small/mid sized turbo setup on my b3 before I swap it for another motor. Wonder what the little old b3 can put down before she pops lol.
