88mm to big??? goin on deployment soon and goin to build a turbo motor with the cash i save up while im gone..
forged 347 eagle H beams diamond pistons fully studded motor (heads and mains)
looking at the lunati 221 cam (221/221 .58x''/.58x'' 114* lsa
now i am doin this as my first turbo build with plans to slowly build a 408 or so in the future...
was thinking of doing a TC78 or T78 turbo with this
but was thinking that it would be a little small for the future build..
so i was thinkin of goin to a GT-88. from forced inductions.. would the 9.5:1 347 be able to spool this at a decent rate for a street car.. i know it would make a hell of a track car but i want to DD it also..
would the compression help on making it better on the street out of boost??
any info would be great
i know i will catch some flaming.. im ready for that.. i do need some good advice..
thanks

on the street it may work great, lag out of the hole and once the car is moving old the **** on, that thing will be a rocket on the big end, if your car HOOKS GOOD out of the hole now it may not come in fast enough
thats my opinion good luck
thats my opinion good luck
I plan to upgrade my 88 to a 91.5

I went with the bigger turbo and bigger heads b/c next year i'm going big cubes. Just going to use this motor to learn on. I think there are plenty of 347's on here that trap 145+ with that setup
