Mitsu turbo ???

Was looking at these two turbos I found. One is a used s20g turbo off ebay, and the other is a 20g turbo off forced performance.

What is the difference between the two? I know nothing about mitsu parts lol

I wanted to get one to put on my car come this summer just dont know which would be better fit for it?

s = Super...

IMO these are VERY old technology, and is why they are as cheap as they are. I would never use a "G" series turbo, when you have Borg Warner EFR's available.

Especially when im just tryin to make 375-400hp. S20g should do that easily.

If that is all your goal is but you will get to a point where you will want more and be disappointed.

its an epic fail in terms of technology and not to mention those things blow up left and right. be your own judge..by the time you finish rebuilding those things you will be at 1500 in no time.

I do have to agree with you. That is one turn off IMO on all Hahn kits is they use this old technology turbo.

the hahn kit is a fail in general.....there pos bov on the silicone coupler is a joke, old technology turbo and it spools slower then the k04. you might as well keep your stock turbo and get 350ish and call it a day....if you really want something trick and fancy by the smallest efr.

the turbo industry is going to take a huge turn after the release of these efr turbos.......everyone needs to step up their game. ill probablly be one of the first lnfs with a efr on there...have the mani and everything finished up in a couple weeks.

This is true. Even though I wouldn't choose the smallest EFR turbo though. 6255 is to small.

6258 is the smallest I would go with, yet still make a good 400+ HP
6758 is a good average sided turbo 450-550HP
7064 is the all out turbo IMO for the 2.0L ecotec. 550-700HP

I think you kind of got your answer from about 3 that have knowledge of this turbo. You in the end make your own choice, but from info here it is not much of any upgrade, just causes a empty wallet.

save your money get a nice turbo thats giong to handle the power.

the smallest efr isnt too small.....if it maxes at 400 its right in his goal.

6255 is good to 375 6258 is good to 450hp 6758 to 500

6255 you mean

E85 will bump up those max HP numbers my about 10-20% also...



For $500 off, and about $1400 we have a EFR 6258 in stock, with free shipping):

We also have a 6758 in stock/in house, but it is pre sold for a turbo kit we are working on.

i don't believe the s20g or the 20g will fit your stock turbo manifold. So you would probably spend more money than you think.

I actually like the s20g myself, but if I were driving a t/c cobalt, I wouldn't replace the ko4 with that particular turbo. Unfortunately, I have to agree with the borg warner boys right now.

im a strong pte fan boy.....but the new borg and warners are definately something special....i would never of used bw before as i dont believe in journal bearing turbos but to each is there own. its nie they have finally upgraded to dual ceramic ball bearing

the s20g is a downgrade over the k04 and mexi loco is right it WONT bolt up to the stock mani.....so its your going to have issues later down the road and have to have a manifold build and the amount of money your going to spend in getting mani made or buying one from the vendors and that old tech turbo you can buy a really nice turbo for 500-800 more. remember you get what u pay for

I dont know how I could dissagree with any of that

BW really stepped up and it shows, other manufactures better get on the game quick, but it will take 1+ years to get it through development to get even close to the EFR's

Heck we will even throw in for free a T25 flange so you can bolt the turbo up to something if you wish.

so those efr turbos can be used on an lsj as well? sorry, i haven't really read up on them. I saw your thread about it aaron, but I didn't pay too much attention to it for worry that I might scrap my s20g before I even use it...

they can be used on ANYTHING.......just need a manifold witha t-25 flange and all the proper vacuum lines and waterlines to make it all work.

sounds good for a future swap. I've exhausted funds and my wife's nerves on my current build, so I think this will have to wait a couple of years and after an engine build...hopefully that'll give bw time to actually fix/improve on the first series of efr's

I think the waterlines are optional to hook up, if someone didnt want to go through all that? Correct me if I am wrong. SS/TC's have it there so it is simple, but on the LSJ's it would be more work...

EFR's are universial, just need a turbo manifold to bolt it up to and a downpipe. Same process as any other turbo, but you are getting the worlds best turbo.
