Some turbo help? Alright guys I have been researching for months now on what type of turbo to use and basically I can't make up my mind and wanted to see what you guys are running. This is still mainly a street truck that I will bring to the track often.
Engine, Trans and Truck
04 5.3 with a TBSS intake and NW 92mm TB
Stock displacment, stock heads, Will be going with a blower cam (not sure on what yet)
stock 4l80E, Thinking a 3200-3400 Converter, 4.10's Tossing around the idea of throwing some 3.73's or 3.42's in it
03 Ext cab s10, last time i was at the track it weighed 3676 with me in it and a half a tank of fuel.
My setup so far (subject to change)
I just need a little help being pushed in the right direction from some of you veteran turbo guys, This is my first turbo build and I wanna do it right. Just looking to see what you guys think of the setup and what turbo you think I should run. I was originally gonna go with the ON3 76mm But I don't know if I wanna trust a 300$ turbo and expect to make good reliable power off of it.
Thanks,
Ross.

My setup so far (subject to change)
- Shooting for 650 to the tires
- Pump gas with meth
- Siemens Deka 80lb injectors with twin 340's in the tank
- Intercooled thinking 76mm not sure yet
- 3 bar MAP speed density
- Wastegate/blow-off undecided

I was able to make a turbonetics 78/75 fit in the engine bay of my s10 and keep ac...but that's pretty much the biggest I can fit...if you aren't keeping ac you have a lot more options... 650 could probably be made with a tc78 but you shouldn't need dual 340lph pumps...I have a 255 and a 340 and is supposed to be maxed for around 900hp and 80psi fuel pressure.

I just stumbled across a good priced unit I'm gonna look more into but what do you guys think about a Turbonetics T66 with F1 trim? They are priced pretty good through Forcedinductions.com. Say's they are rated for around 730 horse which is well enough for me right now.
I would run a s475 then if you have the room...about $650
Here is a link to my build check out post #186 for the setup bolted up out of the truck
