Default Turbo needed..

well i took off the S88 1.32ex turbo and threw on a GT42 74mm 1.15ex and what a diff drives way better and does not surge but i lost alot of power..
I am looking at getting a new turbo here are my picks
Gt42R 80mm
Y2k 80mm
ST80 t6
SX80 T6

I love the way the smaller turbo drives i can foot brake 3-5psi
I will set a goal of 850rwhp max but will prob run around 700rwhp seeing my car got weighed in @2691 w/ my fat *** in it lol.. i would say a full race weight will be 2750lbs and i have a goal of 9.50's

im going for the 42r .. you will benefit from the BB setup on a car so light not making as much load, and I don't see a need for a t6 on a 80mm 348, seems like it would hurt your spool time to much.

Ohh, dont get me wrong never said it wouldn't work, just think it could work better. There are lots of ppl on here that know more than me, but for what you said power wise your goal was, I think it could be done with a smaller turbo, save some money and maybe even get there a little faster.

Thumbs down It was dinnertime

bump up ..  Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out into the sunlight with the bay rippling in a freshening wind. There was purpose in his loping stride5. He would raise the five dollars and not tell anybody.  Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben had an idea.  He ran towards the sound and stopped at a construction site. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails purchased in Hessian sacks from a local factory. Sometimes the sacks were discarded in the flurry of building, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.  That day he found two sacks, which he took to the rambling wooden factory and sold to the man in charge of packing nails.  The boy's hand tightly clutched the five-cent pieces as he ran the two kilometers home.  Near his house stood the ancient barn that housed the family's goats and chickens. Reuben found a rusty soda tin and dropped his coins inside. Then he climbed into the loft of the barn and hid the tin beneath a pile of sweet smelling hay.  It was dinnertime when Reuben got home. His father sat at the big kitchen table, working on a fishing net. Dora was at the kitchen stove, ready to serve dinner as Reuben took his place at the table.  He looked at his mother and smiled. Sunlight from the window gilded her shoulder-length blonde hair. Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home, the glue that held it together.Thsale is a professional, loyal and reliable wow gold supplier online, we pioneered selling cheap wow gold.
