my setup
11.25/1 compression
stock b16
gsr head planed with type r cams and aem gears
skunk2 im
chrome with ostrich
im getting a kit put together but im stuck on what size turbo to go with..its going to be run on sraight e85 and a max of five pounds of boost until it gets rods and pistons next winter so i need a turbo that spools good and will be efficiant at 5 lbs then if i build it id like to run around 15....i'm hoping for 250hp at 5lbs is this an acomplishable goal?

thanks for the input

 

anyone?

 

what is your ultimate power goal with the built block?

 

its not a buillt block itts a sock b16 bottom with a gsr head that has been planed more than i wanted to....11.25 or so compression..... so i'm looking to keep boost to a minimum just to save the block.....when i build it this coming winter i would like to make at most 350-375hp so i would like to know what turbo can run at 5lbs and still have enough to support my goals in the next year??????? any input is gratly appreciated...... i've been leaning twords a t3-t04e 57-60

 

yeah i know its stock now but when deciding on a turbo you want to size out one that can support your ultimate power goal for when you build the block like you said.

those would be the 2 i suggest. a 57 trim .63 a/r would work well. a 60 trim would be good also with a little extra headroom.

 

i'm not looking for anything huge just somthing that will keep boost till redline(8500) even if its only 7-10lbs max i'll bee happy....like i said if i put rods and pistons in it its likley that it will even see 300hp just to keep on the sate side!!!!!
