here is the setup:
d16z6
eagle rods
cp pistons 9.2:1
91 octane pump gas
up to 16 psi of boost

i am wanting to get about 350whp on around 16psi of boost on pump gas and quick spool. i was looking at the gt2871r since it is cheaper than the gt28rs and able to produce more power. i was also looking at the gt28r because i can get a good deal on one at the moment. post up your suggestions!

 

bump!!!!

 

wow, no one has an answer?

 

you pretty much answered it yourself:

"the gt2871r"

You'll need to bump up boost a little for 350.. About 18psi or slightly more

 

TheShodan---------Listen to this guy.....He knows stuff!!!!!

 

how about the gt28r??? around how much whp would i get at 16psi?

 

how bout a Gt2835 Pro-S turbo?

 

not for $3000! no thank you!

 

i have one used for $1400... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1088538

 

anyone know about how much whp on my setup the gt28r will do at 16psi?

 

Sorry to thread jack but I have a very similar setup and I'm very seriously considering the GT 3071 and opnions on this one? I'm shooting for 350 WHP and a quick spool for autoX.

 

thats what im shooting for aswell, but on a d16z6.

 

a "Disco Potato" GT28RS is perfect for 350hp, well actuall more like 325hp. If you are dead set on hitting 350hp then get a GT2871R but your going to spool slower expecially on a D16. FYI the GT28R is a cheeper, not quite as advanced turbo as the RS, the GT28 was redesinged by garrett to spool faster and provide better overall flow and they did a great job at it. also FYI it's called the "Disco Potato" becasue the compressor flow map is in the shape of a potato

ah, so thats why lol learn something new every day

 

If your not getting a Ball Bearing, a GT32 works very nice. I have one on my D16Z6 beater car.

how does your d16 spool it?

if you get the disco potatoe, aren't you out of the efficency range already?

 

its called the disco potato (gt28rs) because sport compact car had a project b15 (2000-up) nissan sentra w/sr20det. the car was chameleon and was running the first ever gt28rs 'disco' potato turbo. (and the compressor maps do look like a potato LOL). How's the spool of the gt28rs on say 14psi with a d15b?

 

Well. for a built D16, going with a Jounal Bearing turbo is always in option in which I'd use a slightly modified (spec wise) GT32E, to allow the lack of amount of torque that the SOHC d16 has. One thing about the Ball-bearing units (especailly those a little larger than the 'potato') is that they like HARD boost, and typically the benefits of such a turbo aren't seen until about 14psi and above, other than that, it may be a bit more cost efficient to go with something like the GT32E, but slightly modified.

I guess what I'm trying to figure out is instead of just asking what rpms a certain turbo gives for a certain hp, it would be a bit more helpful if you gave us some insight on what goals you're actually trying to accomplish. What is the mission of your car?

yeah, i was under the impression that the sentra was nicknamed disco potato so the turbo inherited the name.

 

i thougth it was named disco potatoe because it was jsut all hype, and if you put a potatoe in the spot light with flashy lights, flashy names, loud music, you get a disco, but at the end, its still nothign but a potatoe..

 

my goals are a broad power band with a max output of 350whpish, with quick spool. i have an sc34 for my d16z6 but this turbo is overkill for my application and will provide a peaky powerband and slow spool.

It sees 5 psi by like 3200.

9-10psi by like 3800

Maybe not quite quick enough for you.
