Turbo or not KLDE mx3
Turbo or not KLDE mx3
Hey boys,just a quick question,ive been looking on ebay to buy same headers for my mazda mx3 longneck klde.The thing is ive seen a couple of bolt on turbo kits to suit either a KLDE or a KLZE for round 1000 bucks.The thing is have any of you guys used one of this aftermarket turbo kits.I need all the help i can get since no one knows sh;;t about klze or klde's in sydney let alone slapping a turbo on one.just wonna know a rough price in installing a turbo on the klde tuning instalion etc.The good thing is that the KLDE ive put in is fresh the compresion etc is spot on.Just wonna get a rough price on installing one so in dont get ripped off by the mech..Thanx for your help and time everyone.

Re: Turbo or not KLDE mx3
those ebay kits are garbage. the only usable parts from them is the piping and couplers i believe. you would also need a fuel management system (megasquirt) which is gonna run another $300-$500, then youd need a bigger fuel pump, and bigger injectors, motor mounts, better turbo, bov, wastegate, etc. for a quality turbo install your probably looking around $2000-$2500usd and up in parts, then another $2000+ in labour for building and turning. prices are also going to be completely different in aud, what i remember from being there most stuff was quite a bit more expensive then north america. if your planning on going turbo you should read maximum boost by corky bell, there is a copy in the turbo section and its very informative.

Re: Turbo or not KLDE mx3
there is no such thing as a bolt-on turbo kit for the mx3...
only buy the hot pipes and a universal IC kit on ebay... and then look for some named brand, turbo, bov, w/g...
then injectors, mounts, clutch, fuel pump, megasquirt, wideband o2, boost gauge, exhaust... ect.
