turbo sizing ?
whats up guys i wanted your suggestions on what size turbo to go with my options are a xs enigneering to4x,to4x2 or a garrett t66 or a turbonetics t60-1. my setup is a crvtec with a86mm bore ge iron sleeves,blue printed and balanced with a counter blanaced knife edged crank,je pistons and pauter rods,a ported out and polish b18c5 head with a complete ferrea valve train either top fuel turbo spec cams or the new jg eldbrock turbo cams. my fuel setup is a 15 gallon fuel cell with and aeomotive elimantor pump and another aeromotive a1000 pump feeding through -10 fuel lines with a aeromotive fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator with four primary 750cc and four secondary 1000cc injectors. all this controlled by a haltech e6k with direct fire ingiton.
what do you guys think. all of this is going into a 00 civic si.

T66-1 and go to XS Engineering or buy one from Turbonetics through Dynamic Autosports.(In that order), there is a specific reason for buying through DA. send an IM if u wanna know the reason.
I chose XS and I am very very happy, the only draw back with them is that they dont give out their specs. U have to fill in a form with everything U have and what U want to have at what boost and they will give U a custom turbo. I was able to measure the compressor and it is identical to a 60-1. I get boost at about 3~3500 RPM all the way up to 10k.
Given what U have I would get a T66-1. I presume that this is going to be a drag only car?
Do U really need all that fuel?????????

thanks for the info i was pushing more towards xs engineering i think that there t04x2 is as big or bigger than a t-66. no its going to be a street car to take to the races and the hangouts here in miami. i am not 100% sure that i am going to need all that fuel but better safe than sorry.

I just have 720cc injectors and its a challenge to tune it properly for the streets and it consumes quite a bit of gas and well sounds like a race car on the street. I dont mind that though, I am having a lot of fun with the car.
But I am seriously considering running 310cc primaries and 550cc secondary secondaries. this is much better for a street beast, that hangs out at the track on weekends. this config will allow U to start and run like a stock car on the street and when duty demands it the secondaries will be more than enough for big boost street/ strip.
I am running a DFI 7 though. That might be the only difference

Re: turbo sizing ? (Liltrix)
that did run by mymind that the 75cc's might be a pain in the *** for the street as primary's i might reconsider and go with 45 or 55cc as primary and keep the big boys for the secondary.
