OMG this is getting out of hand. I think the admins shouldnt let people post in this forum for the first 100 posts, or monitor how many times they used the search feature.

T29 - good idea so nobody can steal it as you can put in your pocket and take it with you, atleast go for the standard T3/4 that all the drag kits have, they make great jam -

depends.. I used to hear 10 was the limit.. some people say stock pistons start breaking down at 250whp.. I know of alot of people who have run 350+ bone stock internals.. some people have even pushed the limits to 20psi stock block. if u have pistons rods and block gaurd you should safe up to 14psi with proper fuel management.. thats a mildly conservative #, if u wanna push the limits its up to u.. if u r afraid to break anything, dont turbo it..
oh yeh, T29
way too small.. T3/T4 is where the hp is at..

do you guys really think i should run a bigger turbo ? i had a t3/t4 with my drag kit and i think it was a little slugish but spooled write up at around 3,000 mabye 3,500
i know that the greddy turbo's are a t3 18g thats a little bigger mabye that might be the way to go what do you think ?

but YES, u need a bigger turbo
well thats up to u, do u want to run fast 1/4 miles? do u want to have a fast car? or do u want an illusion of having a fast car by having a small turbo that makes it "feel" fast when u press the gas but dies off shortly after.. its up to u./
