any here? which turbo do you run? any setup tips for keeping things cool / not having problems?

 

i was running a t3/t4, to be honest, i hate the turbo size for road racing... the throttle response is disgusting... i recently gave up on trying to make my car suitable for canyon runs & drag racing.

a smaller turbo with short gearing would work really well though.

an oil cooler, nicely sized radiator/fan. but good tuning & fuel set up should still be your #1 priority. you would probably benefit from street tuning as well, to take care of the little hiccups.
hood vents can also be beneficial...

 

Something like a Greddy Turbo would be good for road racing since it has really quick spool. More displacement will also help a lot for turbo spool and low end power for pulling out of turns.

Hood vents is a great idea, but on your integra would look kinda.... Maybe buy a VIS vented hood for just the track and when you daily drive swap if off quick!

One of my goals was the race on a road course. But I guess I cant now since I am set on high horsepower numbers, and that requires a large turbo.

 

Is an oil cooler really a must when road racing?
