i must answer your question with a question...what kind of power band are you looking for? what kind of lag are you willing to put up with

 

[robinsongtir]

the ultimate turbo for power IMO would be a Greddy T88 34D

 

[zia]

i,d want a turbo thats reaches its peak boost at my engines peak torque rpm power wise say 300-450 8)

zia

 

[Sirnixalot]

the HKS GT-RS or GT3037 are what you want then 8)

 

[memski]

Stop sitting on the fence, Miller! :roll:

 

[zia]

hks 3037 would have to be it wheres the best place to get one?
looking at your pics sir nix will the turbo outlet fit with aircon?do you have to make your own outlet pipe? should i go for .86 a/r turbine or will .73 a/r spool up alot quicker? also can you have 70 a/r compressor.how long before yours is up and running?

cheers zia

I was just gonna say exactly that, There is no ultimate turbo. it depends on what u want it for. There may be an ultimate turbo for a specific power output etc but not overall.

if you want to use it on the standard manifold you will have to grind down the blokc some...notthing structural dont worry. Also you will need to get your manifold molidied to fit an external wastegate. You will not be able to doa 3" bend off the turbo with the AC compressor still in place. You will have to do a 2.5" dump pipe into a 3" down pipe and exhaust.


Mine wont be up for at least another month...but keep in mind im running a custom manifold so my lag will be significantly less than yours

 

[zia]

forgive the stupid question but installing header icreases lag does it?due to long gas flow until it reaches turbine. :? oh and where did you get your turbo from? if may so bold to ask.

not neccecerily...the tubular manifold runners have roughly the same cross sectional area as the exhaust port, they flow alot more gases and with alot less restirction than the standard manifold. The different runners work in pulses, for instance the exhaust gas from cyl 1 hits the turbo then 4 then 2 then 3 so there is all ways pressure keeping that turbine balde spinning.

I got my turbo from Carlos Faxas out of Miami Florida in the US. I paid US$1790 for my turbo but the price has gone down since last year i think.
