you'll need pistons and rods for that power... no point in sleeving, especially on a gt28r.

Well what it I wanna go bigger turbo in the future? sleeving to 84mm would insure that everything will hold up at 400-500whp if im lucky.

if you will want to go bigger build it the correct way the first time. get a turbo with room to grow. and you dont need 84 mm to get 350 whp you can sleeve it with a 81 mm bore gives you room for mistakes.

sounds better you still need fuel system, clutch, and i maybe forgetting some stuff i think 300-350 is a good goal learn how to drive that car. then work on traction such as tires, lsd, and traction bar.

also skip the b16 cams, pick up a set of gsr cams... the poor mans type r cam

and are you planning on making more power? if not, a 35r is overkill

Aem fuel Rail/FPR
Rc 550
Walboro 255
Not sure witch clutch imma go with yet. Any advice for 350-450whp?

competition clutch stage 5 has never steered me wrong
but you won't make 450 on a gt28r... and theres a big gap between the 2

figure out exactly what you want to do then decide on a turbo
