Why did you bump it when you knew it was in the wrong forum? Did you post one in the FI forum?

Blah anyway how "deep" are you pockets?? That determines the turbo your going to get. Also it depends on how well your motor is built.

K.I.S.S.!

Honestly man you need to research. When you research enough youll know all the answers to your questions on how to build a turbo set up. If your not sure just go with a Edlebrock or Greddy set up.

Depends on how much hp you can handle on the street. Just 1 hp over what you can handle will make the car not streetable for you, and not safe for others. Once again, how much money do you ahve to spend and how much power do you want to make? t3/t4 ranges in such a big range that giving you a number would mean nothing to anyone.

My friends brothers wifes cousins 3rd son by the 4th wife said that my car could pull 500whp all day all.

People say things, dyno's show things.


Edit:

Also if you want more..... tune it more.

Edit again:

From just this thread alone i know you dont have 300whp.

That makes sense

Why make a thread acting like you dont know anything, then turn it into that you know everything. I tried to help you out but it went down hill by you not listening. If you want 500000 whp and 8 second street car then go ahead and learn how to do that. Until then stop acting like your the ****.

I never said i was better then anyone and the only time i talk down to someone is when im flaming them for whatever reason. Your reason being that you dont listen, even Brian said to listen and your not. You say you have deep pockets and that you have a turbo on your car that is, as a "tech" says "300 to 400 hp" and you want more, for a street car. Man you need to get your figures straight because you dont know what your talking about already. Want me to tell you a set up to run, pay me 5 bucks and ill tell you everything, what to buy, where to buy, how to tune, who to tune it for you, what you need and all. But then whos car would it be, yours or would it be my creation? Get your figures straight man.
