Basically the goal is to have a 400whp/116 trapping daily driver on 93 octane.

Car will have cams, full exhaust, fmic, injectors, fuel pump... basically all boltons.

But I see a bunch of debate when I search "20g turbo" about which way is the best way for 400whp.

Some people say you can't make 400whp on either setup on 93 octane... and if that were true. The choice would go 20g because of all the extra money spent on the 50 trim setup. Just to NOT reach the goal anyway.

What you guys think?

 

go with 20g.

 

Ive been debating this for bout 6 months and am going with the 20glt-9 and meth.

 

I heard that this turbo is the best set up for good horsepower and fast spool, plus it retains the same bolt pattern for headers and 02 housing:

well you can get 400hp on stock turbo. but its gonna take meth cams and all the bolt on's and a damn good tune to do it.

 

So you can hit 400whp with a 20g on 93 octane?

 

yes, we do it out here in cali on our ****ty 91

 

Go with the 50trim. Will hit 400whp without a sweat on low boost and there is more on the table for later. If all fails go 35r!!

 

50trim

 

go with a 50 trim if you want a better chance to get 400whp on just 93 oct

 

My friend just hit 400whp on the evo green on pump and 21 psi of boost. I drove it and its a beast. Spools nearly as fast as stock...

 

I plan on doing the rest of the bolt ons plus cams, 20glt, meth, ported intake, ported tb, ported mani, and will run AEM EMS.

Was told that I would be able to hit close to the 400whp on buschur's dream killer dyno.

Does that sound right?

 

my evo made 430whp on straight pump with a 50 trim.

 

50 trim is the ultimate street turbo, for the 2.0 spools alittle later than the stocker or about the same as the 20g lt and will make 500 on race gas with some basic mods.

 

This is the first I've heard of this turbo. Sounds like a 20G...I think.

I've always associated those "green" turbos with the Subaru crowd. I see mod lists over on NASIOC that occasionally list "FP green" or something like that. I wonder if this is the same manufacturer and/or turbo?
