Re: some turbo advice (onefastx)
A D-series at 230 WHP and 205 WTQ is way different than a B16 at 300 WHP buddy. As you increase the RPM's torque doesn't necisarily increase, so if you make 300 WHP you're not going to be making a lot more than 200 WTQ. What you don't understand is your car would likely be faster with 300 WHP and 200 WTQ than with 300 WHP and 290 WTQ. With 290 WTQ you're going to have a tiny turbo running a lot of boost that runs out of steam very early, so you really aren't going to have a very broad powerband and the car isn't going to drive very nice. With 300 WHP and 200 WTQ spinning it to 8500 RPM's, your car will be way faster.

if your goal is 220 tq and 300+whp, then i would suggest a gt28rs with a .63 A/R t3 hot side. if budget doesnt allow for that then a 50 trim would get the job done.
if the motor is built though i would want more power than that.
never seen an intercooler in place of the ac condenser but anything is possible.
