will this turbo satisfy my power goals?
I've been on here for about a year and have done my fair share of research on fi. I have a t3 turbo off a late 80's 300zx which i have been told has .63 a/r hot and .60 a/r cold. i have a semi-built ls/vtec (b16a2 head) with eagle rods and srp pistons with gsr oil pump/t-belt/water pump and i have a new oem ls crank with acl bearings; the head is strapped down with aebs head studs. my power goals as of now are more or less 230whp. i built the block for expansion later on. My question is, will this turbo really be too small? i mean a 210hp 2.0L eclipse uses a t25 and srt-4's with 2.4L have a pretty small turbo as well. btw, will be tuned on ud or crome until i get hondata s300 using dsm 450's and walbro 255lph HP.

That turbo is going to be to small. I have a friend that ran one of those and it maxed out at 10 psi on a b16 and didn't make very good power. I would sell it to some one doing a d-series setup and get something a little bigger.

i will be running a holset hx35 soon. its just that i began assembling my turbo kit before i knew i would be vtec. all this was gonna go on an ls turbo. so i will probably running the 300zx turbo at about 10 psi.
