Default F2B Trackday/Street EK - Looking for the right turbo...

Hi there HT.


I'm currently in the process of building a new motor for my civic..

Don't ask me why I wnet with a F22A, it's just the motor I had and I wanted to try something different as my Ex 200whp B16 shattered itself into pieces.


The build is pretty simple:

F22A1 with H22 rods and Supertech EVO pistons.
Bisi 1.2 cam, springs, and stock valves and retainers.
B16 transmission with LS 5th and a Synchrotech LSD


I currently own a 5252 turbo with a .63 housing that should be able to make arround 280 at the wheels with a fair powerband, wich is what I'm looking for for the circuit.

But the fact is, I take the car to the track no more than twice a year so I need a more flexible turbo that could work well at low boost levels and give me a good powerband but I also need it to handle a bigger boost for the streets.


What would you guys recomend? My goal is to make around 300 at the track and somewhere around 450 at the street, but retaining a good powerband.


I tought about this model:

It's not much bigger than what I own now, but it's certainly much more efficient as "brazilian" turbos are just a pile of diesel parts put toghether in some "more efficient" way...



thanks in advance
