i am in the process of building a ls/vtec turbo car right now.. i have the block sleeved to 84.5mm and forged pistons and eagle rods.. the head is a stock b16a with gsr cams..

my goal is going to be 550whp or 600whp to the wheels. i am really wanting to get 600whp but i am not wanting to get a twin disc clutch.. that is why i am wanting 550whp.. b ut the real question is what turbo.. show i get??? i am wanting to get the sc61.. but i am not sure what which one to get... or to even get this turbo.. could somebody give me some good advice.. thanks..

and it is not going to be a daily driver.. but it will be only driven on the street.. thanks.. a lot...

 

A Borg Warner S362 would fit your needs pretty well. It has the extended tip technology that allows it to be more efficient at higher PRs which means it can make the power you want and more without sacrificing much spool. If you were satisfied more in the 550whp range, a Borg Warner S258 would do the trick. The smaller version, the S256, has been proven to over 550whp on C16 at around 33psi. The S258 would be nearer 600whp at the same PR.

 

i was looking at those turbo's but i am not going to spend that much on a turbo right now.. that is why i was leading towards the sc61.. cause i can get one for 725.. and that is about my price range..

 

what do you think about a clutch that i should get for this...i am really trying to stay away from a twin disc.. cause i can not spend that type of money right now.. thanks

 

Comp Stg. 5 worked for me.

 

[QUOTE=black_EM1;36800631]Comp Stg. 5 worked for me.[/QUOT

how much power are u making.. and what is your set up???

 

sc61 on ls, yeah. that is very possible. maybe around 30psi c16.

 

it is a ls/vtec that i am doing...

 

besides wanting to make 550 to 600whp what do you want to do with the car??

is it street only, drag only, or a DD/weekend warrior ?

 

it is only really for the street.. if i have time.. i will go to the track.. but i will only drive it about once a week or soo..

 

i dont see a problem with using the SC61 or HX35

 

gt35r?

 

I have a customer running an sc61 with a setup that meets your goals, check out the silver teg on the video gallery on http://www.phearable.net

 

sc61 is an all around great turbo, there decent priced and make good power. my buddys street hatch just put down 754wheel on it.

edit: wasnt a sc61, found out last night its a t4/t67. my bad people.

 

754whp on an sc61? hmmm....

 

he maxed out his fuel system.. the only thing that i have is a bbk 255 fuel pump and that is it.. do you think i should get another fuel pump or what.. what did he upgrade too..

watch clutches are u guys using to make over 550whp.. that is a question that nobody can answer for me.. i am getting the competition stage 5 clutch with the upgraded pressure plate.. but do you think that i should go twin disc.. cause i really don't want to spend that type of money on a clutch...

thanks

 

HX35

beat me to it. gets my vote. about $200. size of gt35r. what im going to run.

Im using an ACT stage 4 kit. Might want to get an Aeromotive 1000 Fuel pump too.

 

where are u guys getting this holset turbo's?? and what are the prices for these

 

check ebay. theyre off diesle trucks

 

my friends using the act 2600 on that 754 hatch, now called the xtreme i think.

 

hows it holding up? how long has it been in there?

 

i want to know too.. cause.. i am thinking that the stage 5 competition is going to hold up.. cause it seems to me that a lot of people that is not using a twin disc and making bug power...

 

holding good, not sure how long its been in there, hes had that setup for about a year now, so im saying around a year or more.

the 2600 holds a lot of power. twin discs are aimed more towards awd cars that take a headvy load to launch. although some honda need them for the serious power there pushing.

 

ok.. i am just going to pray the that my stage 5 will hold out.. i am just hoping that he has axles...

 

nope, stock oe axles yo. over a year of abuse and no breakage.

ninja edit: he did break one axle once, the night he did that the track was stickin like no other, he pulled like a 1.4 60' !!! other than that, oe axles are fine. not preloading is your enemy.

stage 5 competition should hold plenty of power. im guessing thats like the 2600, 6puck sprung. idk how much your planning to run but that clutch is almost as good as the act 2600.

edit: 60' time is exagerating since not many fwd cars can even pull that obviously. i said "like" cause i didnt know the exact time.
