Well, im going to be coming out with a new setup capable of bringing my z6 into the 300whp range. The limiting factor remaining is my turbo setup. Im currently using the greddy sohc kit and i was wondering if its possible to retain any of it? The ic piping and fmic seem fine, but the turbo/mani/dp prob wont be.
My money tree is depleted so lets talk the least possible expense.
Can the stock mani be retained? how much power is it good up to?
What turbo can i use (if i retain the stock mani) that will allow me to reuse the piping for the IC?
I know my 2.25" DP needs to be replaced so ill just see what the first 2 responces are, thanks.

turbo and dp would be the only thing I would upgrade in my opinion. manifold should be ok... but it does limit the compatible turbo upgrade choices.

fuel management is the only other thing to make sure about I would think. keep in mind I am no expert when it comes to upgrading greddy's kits though.

 

Fuel managment will either be hondata or uberdata. dsm 450s and a 255 lph intank

 

What is your HP goal? This will help determine which turbo is right for you.

 

Like it says above
300whp + hopefuly so anything that will carry the load of 300whp+..
and for fuel managment .. Urbedat or hondata and 450s dsm's and a intake fuel pump..

 

I would probably go with one of the smaller T3s.

 

well the important thing is if that manifold can be retained what is the most cost effective snail...one that bolts right on or maybe one that needs a flange (and then what exact turbo)

 

T3/T04E 50 trim should make 300whp at a decent boost level. I only recommend this turbo because it's been proven on sohc's that i've seen. the manifold u could just get like a cheap log manifold, and the downpipe would have to be changed.
