1j turbos tend to not be the most reliable from what I gather...the most common way to fix this is to upgrade to a big single turbo...you can have your turbo's rebuilt but that will cost about as much as buying a new manifold and turbo.
so to do that what all do i have to upgrade with it?? just the manifold and turbo?? or the lines to and wut not?? thanks again for the help
When u go single u need to change manifold and whatever else neccessary to make the single work. Some singles are oil cooled so u would have to block of the coolant feed and return line of the stock setup. If u get one that is water cooled then u can keep the lines. /even then u still might need to make some adjustments.
yeah most all single turbos worth a damn are oil cooled only so you'll be able to remove water lines which will clean up the engine bay a bit....you'll need a custom downpipe which isn't too hard to get done.
