Default Built D16Z6 turbo options

I got a D16Z6 that has crower spring and retainer, zex cam, skunk2 cam gear, performance x intake manifold, tuner toy rods,and vitara pistons.

I have 3 different turbos on my mind. Keep in mind this is my dads car and will some what bedaily driven. Looking for around 325-350 on pump gas and then maybe 400+ on pump and 100% meth. He wants to go with a top mount manifold.

Turbo options:
T3/TO4E 57 trim I have now
GT2876R
GT3076R

I was think that if we went with the 30R to go T3 twin scroll. I don't know if that will be a good idea or not. Just thought it would be good for 500whp if he every wants to sleeve and fully build it later on. He wants a usable power band.

Whats the bros and cons of each? Also post up your numbers. Thanks alot

Chris

be realistic with your goals. a holset HX35 or HX40/35 with a 9cm^2 turbine housing would be nice for 300whp and higher (400 depending on YOUR set-up, personal experiences have yielded 500whp on a HX40/35 with a lot more left in it.)

From what I understand the comp. ratio with the vitaras in the Z6 is only 8.5

correct sir. also id personally get a 50 trim instead of a 57, better spool time and still capable to support 350hp. Also ditch that skunk2 cam and go with a zex 59300

I used 2 different ones. And I put in the stock rod lenght. One said 8:50 and the other was 8:83. So I take it this motor is going to feel like a damn slug out of boost.

take a look at the BW S258 with a T3 .70a/r or .55a/r
also you will need to add timming with 7:1CR inorder to give the car a little more grunt, it doesnt has to be a slug but it wont be like 10:1 either. if your so worried just buy a set of FJT custom length rod and bump your CR to 8.5:1 or mill the deck and head a bit you have options.

If I was to put the FJT rods in it and a 2 later y8 head gasket it would bump me up to 8:8:1. But the rods are on back order now. Between the block and head its already been milled 0.015
