- Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:04 am #291645 gt3071 .64a/r for 350whp

gt3071 .86a/r for 400whp+

and check out the gtx series by garrett.

and 400whp daily driver lol. good luck keeping that reliable. too much power imo. 1st and 2nd would be useless. and prolly 3rd. even with good tires.

i would reccomend 300whp tops t28 should get you there or a td04. 280whp in a honda is quick.

btw what motor are you running? i could give you a better setup and choose a turbo for what your looking for.

- Thu Feb 09, 2012 1:51 am #293978 if you can find a saab 9000 aero 94-98 grab the td04hl-15t 6cm^2

or find a volvo td04hl-15t 6cm^2

the volvo uses a weird flange for turbo. so i would stick with a saab turbo.

also saab has td04hl-15t 5cm^2 which spools alot faster than alot of turbos. limited to 250whp but it spools like a supercharger.

also they make 7cm exhaust sides for td04 saabs now. spool goes down but it can make more up top. 300whp turbo

you can find them at a local junk yard or online cheap. saab turbos sell from $50-$300 depends on shape and which model its from.

saabs are torque monsters with stock turbos. i had a td04hl-15t 6cm^2 @21-23psi and it made 350ftlbs and 275whp to wheels on a b234r with inatke and exhaust

also saab had a t25 7cm on alot of there cars. it spools slower than the td04 but can make more top end. also its a good start for a t28. but i perfer the td04 last longer and has a better torque band


and sleeves are a waste of money under 400whp

- Thu Feb 09, 2012 12:54 pm #294071 I'll look into the saab turbo sounds good to me

yeah sleeving is good but i pushing my engine so hard so i guess i dont need em..

I was also looking towards theGarrett GT3076R Ball Bearing Turbo but the price is crazy..

- Sat Feb 11, 2012 6:33 am #294405 stock saab turbo cant flow like a gt3076. the gt3076 is alot better turbo for 350+whp. but it spools slower and it costs alot more.

if you want gt3076 a/r86 power find a holeset turbo from a cummings dodge. i think its over kill on street car but eyeryone is different
