Turbo 5LE Motor Questions

Postby mudslug » Tue Nov 01, 2016 7:13 am

Hi guys,

Just a couple of questions, i have a Hilux with the 5le motor in it with is injected. Is it possible to turbo these as it is with the 3l or 5l motor?

Do i need to remove the injection and go to the manual fuel pump off the like of a 5l?

What parts will i need to acquire? 2lte pump, turbo manifold and associated pipework? Then i just bolt on?

Any help would be appreciated, would prefer to keep it running the computer but understand it will need to be chipped?

Thanks

you can use 2lte turbo and exhaust manifold, oil and water lines.
intercooler highly recommended.
i would keep boost stock.
chip the ecu to increase fueling.
2.5" exhaust.
