You should look for a book called maximum boost by corky bell and read it, because you don't have the first clue about turbos

That thing is freak'n HUGE. Thats what the supra guys use for a really big single turbo up grade. It will never spool on your car, if its a honda.

If you spool that thing and make huge numbers, I'll fly myself out to you and shake your hand.

I've heard of a 2.0L DSM running a T88H into the low 9s no nitrous in a 2700 pound 'street' car.

Only thing that I've heard of that sounds familiar to that is the RX7 at the pump gas drags, went 9.4 before hitting the wall. Chevy LS1 motor with a pair of T66's.

Considering a lot of DSMs are going 2.4L, I just thought I should specify.

Of course, all the fast guys are running 2.0s anyway, so it wasn’t really needed if you know DSMs.

i dont know if you're actually serious about this or what but here you go:

a T88 is not the best choice for a honda or any 4 cylinder for that matter

the a/r ratio on it is entirely too big and the spool would suck even with nitrous

it could be done if you had a well built motor and engine management and fuel, but would not be the best choice

T88 is not even the best choice for a crazy hp supra

T88's are an older turbo technology and there are turbos now with a lot better spooling with greater power output

the way the greddy turbos work...T88, T88H, T78, etc is they have a crazy big a/r to make all that power

hopefully you realize that a T88 is not an 88mm turbo, it is a 70 something mm (i forget the exact number) same thing for a T78...its a 60 something mm

if you really need or want to go for the power a T88 can provide, you need something like a pt-71 with the .81 a/r ratio or a ITS 76mm with the .84 a/r ratio...something like that...those would spool decently (not fast, but a hell of a lot better than a T88) and they make same or more power

the 71mm T4 is good for about 850 whp

the 76mm T4 is good for about 1000whp

look on supraforums and see how many people run other huge turbos besides T88's and how many that have T88's want to get something better...don't get me wrong T88 makes a lot of power, but there are much better options, especially for hondas and other 4 cylinders

Who knows he might have 2 x 2L B18Cs to spool that baby up. On under the hood and one in the trunk
