you could get away with a 60 i think. Ive seen one flow 600hp but thats all it had. you may need to run alil higher boost than 6pds to hit your target with that turbo though.

smaller spools faster, but its not really that much of a difference when your dealing with that small of a turbo, T70 should be alil worse but if it aint in the rear lag shouldnt be horrible. the 60 and 67 should spool around 2.5k and the 70 around 3k. This is my understanding but i dont own a turbo car yet, infact im still thinking about wether to go nitrous or turbo.

Hmm, so lets sya i run 6 psi on stock engine with a t-60, t-67 and t-70. How much more power should i net with the bigger turbos if any and approx how long will it take for the t-70 to reast full boost on stock motor if anyone knows?

i personally think you could hit your target with any of these, that and blow your motor.

Good to see you have a goal regarding your HP.

The difference between those turbos is going to be volume of air provided per psi. Our big motors won't have a problem spinning any of those to max boost in the first 2K rpm. All cost aside, I would go with the T-70. It's really efficient and can open up to monster boost when you're ready for it. Just my .02.

I'm going with the D1SC kit in the future at 8lbs. until I build up the bottem end. Both the turbo and supercharger kits will make you haul ***. I don't see turbos as being as reliable since they go through extream heat cycles.

Yea but they go hand in hand. They is some belt slippage in s/c. You have to oil the s/c and im sure theres a few more downs to each but i'd be happy with either. Just chose the turbo since there are so many more options, puts out little better numbers, and im not sure now long i could stay sane with that loud whistle, haha. Anyone else good with turbos have a suggestion o nthe t-70 and stock engine?
