HEY GUYS, I'M RUNNING A T3/T4 60TRIM 63 A/R HOT SIDE. I'M WONDERING IF I WOULD MAKE MORE POWER WITH A BIGGER TURBO. I'M RUNNING 15 PSI RIGHT NOW WITH THE 3MM HEAD GASKET.

I'M THINKING ABOUT GETTING A GT35R, WHAT DO U GUYS THINK?
WHAT R U GUYS RUNNING ON YOUR S2000?

 

I think the "NO CAPS" turbo is superb.

 

i think you need to ditch the cheap 3mm head gasket and build a low compression f20c from the ground up if you want to run more than 15psi

 

On a serious note, what does your whole set up consent of?

 

I hope you reshimmed your cams with that 3mm.

 

gt40r

 

gt30/37r

 

t87

 

right now i have the ultimate racing and the 3 mm headgasket,aem ems. i'm upgrading to an topmount and a built motor but i dont know if i should still use my turbo or go bigger.

 

GT3076R

rofl.... this kid is just gonna get more confused with all these turbo sizes.. hahaha. all of us have/want a differnt size.. lol

 

how much lag do u get timg?? my turbo spools at 4k what about yours??

 

it seems like you have a lot of money.

Yeah, go bigger. It'll suit you.

 

With a log manifold and 0.63 a/r turbine housing, I had full spool by 3500 rpm. With the 0.82 a/r turbine housing, lower compression, and a tubular housing it can spool as late as 6000 rpm depending on load. In 6th gear, I have 16 psi by 4000 rpm. My dyno charts show huge differences in the power band depending on how hard the car was loaded. In real life, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

If he had anti lag on then there would be NO lag? You dont run anti-lag in 6th gear, only at a dead stop

I recently purchased a gt4088R im doing a similar set up to cody over at lovefab

GTG4088R would be a monster on the s2000. That thing will make some serious power.

For a street car on a stock engine, id prolly rock a gt30r. For a built motor 600 or so hp use a gt35r. For the monster, i want a ton of power, gt4088R please.

That's what happens with a small A/R ratio turbine housing, + small GT series turbo, + stock 2.2L motor, + log manifold. It was fun for quick spool, but by VTEC felt like crap. It's a MUCH different car now and feels much better.

i've been looking for a top mount equal lenght but i can't find anyone who makes one besides lovefab's mini-mebut it's not really an equal lenght. but i might just pick it up, anyone using it?
lovefab mini-me??

 

I have the LoveFab mini me. He also makes a Mini-Me EQ, but upon special order only I think. Still has really short runners, so I don't think it'd make a big difference. The mini me should perform as well as any log style, with the assurance of welded SS and CRS flanges.

 

The mini-me should perform better than the regular log styles because of it's collector. I think the S2000 mini-me's have equal length headers. I know they are very close in length though, so it shouldn't make a huge difference.

Have a GT35R myself.

 

thats what im hoping for im hoping for mid 5 to low 6 on the stock motor hopefully we can do it
