second guessing my turbo setup...
well i bought some stuff for my turbo build and now i am starting to think that i dont have the right stuff...i have 2.5 inch intercooler piping and i do not think its large enough...i have a 38mmWG and i dont think its big enough. and my turbo maifold that is similar to the xs power power is one that i bought from a different company doesnt seem to be large enough either but i just dont know...im trying to get 500-600hp out of this build and now im thinking the stuff i bought is too small...can anyone help me out on this?

really.
2.5 piping is fine, what do you mean your manifold isnt "big enough".
Can your turbo or fuel system even support 500whp?

Re: second guessing my turbo setup... (swappedcx)
the diameter piping on my manifold seems to be too small...and yes my fuel system is upgraded with fuel pump filter injectors and rail...i also purchased a blowzilla...the manifold is like one of those ebay ones? only its an obx and not the ssautochrome brand...

Your piping's fine in diameter. You don't want that too large anyway. Your wastegate is based upon the size turbo and the amount boosted. Your manifold, well, that depends upon what you're trying to do here.

Not the manifold itself, but the purpose of your car. Street/strip cars don't really need topmount manifolds unless it is either A) a fitment issue for the turbocharger B) Top end / peak power for drag racing. They aren't really needed in many circumstances.
As long as you have the larger exhaust wheel ordered and not the stage III wheel, 500-600 shouldn't be a problem.
