Quick Questions About Turbo B18a
The engine has JE Pistons, eagle rods, arp headstuds and PnP.
RIght now the car has a T25, but I am looking for a gt28rs.
I am also wondering if it is worth adding V-tec.
First, how much additional whp does adding a vtec head typically gain on both turbos?
How many pounds of boost on both turbos would I need to get 325whp for Vtec and non-vtec?

Re: Quick Questions About Turbo B18a (bimmeracer)
T25s are worthless on a B-Series. You'd see more horsepower by sticking an oxyacetylene torch into your intake manifold. Sorry, but they are too small for your application.
The bare minimum advised for a STOCK LS is a T3, and even those spool insanely fast (like 3000 rpms?), and die off at high rpms.
For your setup, I would advise a T3/T4, GT30R, or GT35R.
T3/T4 is good for about 400ish whp, sometimes more.
GT30R is good for 300 to 450 whp.
GT35R is good for 400 to 600 whp.
Good luck with your turbo setup!

Re: Quick Questions About Turbo B18a (office888)
thanks. What model/size t3/t4 do you think I should get for around 350whp?
Is v-tec worth the upgrade moneywise?

For tune, I am getting a custom crome tune from a reputable tuner.
about the turbo, will this work? Is it a good deal?
