Really right now just trying to weigh my options and see what best will work with my motor and make good numbers... Not trying to go wild budget wise.

I love this crowd... theres so many posts for 800hp ect that all end with "on a budget" lol.

Dont mean anything bad by saying that only because somehow people do it on these motors.

Im just saying im starting with a budget but that goes out the window quick lol

ricky6991

Oh yeah im sure you end up with the best you could get for your senerio even though your hoping someone can show you where to get it for cheaper. Lol its inevitable. Atleast these motors have proven themselfs to make it worthwhile. Btw, i have complete turbo kit for CHEAP but its a bw s472 which you may want bigger.

Just trying to see what people might recommend me for my setup... If its cheap great if not no big deal just trying to have a good kit and make good numbers. Yea im looking to maybe getting a 78 or 88 not sure yet.

There is a lot more to picking a turbo than the engine specs. What are you planning on doing with it? Going 8's or to Dairy Queen?

Not knowing anything Id say Garrett GT50-88

I would start with a borg s480 with the 96mm turbine and 1.32 housing and if you need more jump it up to the 88 or something in that range. Just my .02

S480 with 96mm turbine

I'm building almost the same motor. Forged 6.0, 9.8cr, E85. I'm going with twin Comp billet 6067's because I wanted the snappy, instant throttle response on the street, and enough turbo to make 750-850rwhp or more if I want. If you'd rather have max top-end hp, then most people go with a big single.

This is what I'm going with

Well then that should be enough for me.. Ill be happy with 9's and an 800hp auto car.

Hard to beat the S480 for power vs $... If going T4 a S478/92/1.25 wouldn't be a bad choice. S478 wheel is light and spools fast.
