Hey guys, this will be my first post on HT just need a few questions answered if you guys can help. First off im trying to decide which turbo to go with pending my build. Been doing quite a bit of research along with a few knowledgeable friends and they have both came up with either the 60-1 or 6262 turbo.

MY BUILD: 94 eg coupe dx
Ls head with crower 404 cams, crower valves & retainers.
Ls block with h beam eagle rods, srp 81.5mm pistons, LS trans, compression is 10:5:1, walboro 255 fp, 1000cc injectors, turbo manifold ill probably end up using is a inline pro topmount.

This is my first build and hope to make decent numbers somwhere close to 450hp+ even if i have to run race gas, any help at all is greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Jason

 

6262 is a very nice turbo. If you can afford the 6262 by all means i would say its a good choice. It will support your goal of 450 and have room to play. The billet wheel is a added perk with that turbo and it comes with a anti surge house is another plus. The flow rate on the trubo is very respectable.. It will make good power on the lower boost levels. I personally ran a 60-1 it me 23 psi to get 424 on stock b16 head of course but had to work it a little hard to get the power i wanted.

 

yea ive decided that im going to do this build right the first time even if i do have to come out of pocket a little extra

 

i guess unless i have any other ideas or suggestions i think im going to go with the 6262 thanks russ for the answer, would really be willing to listen to more suggestions though especially if somone has somwhat close to the same build so i have a idea, just havent seen many builds like this one.

 

6262 is way overkill for your goal of 450whp, this is a 700hp turbo were talking about. Go with something smaller like a 5857, 5557, and yes if you want, you can go T04S with antisurge for what I hear is no additional cost.

 

5857 would be perfect

 

hmm so this leads me to my next ? of what my build may be able to make safely

 

lots of factors for that brooooo

 

yea you do have a point lol i really do appreciate all the help guys

 

F*** that get the biggest turbo you can possibly fit under the hood! No but for real the 6262 isn't bad. I personally don't like paying for things twice and if your going to go for more power later then by all means get it.
