The 67 is a nice turbo... but unless ur running high boost all the time, id stick with a straight 35R...

AMS, ETS, etc all make nice 35R kits...

we have a 2.3 stroker with worked head and all of the supporting mods on our shop car.... it was a standard 35R, which made an easy 450whp on our mustang dyno (similar to buschurs) with the stock ecu on pump 93... we then changed to a gt67 comp wheel (effectively making it a 67, with a 73lbs/min wheel)... and made 499.7whp/420wtq on pump 93 @29psi ..

that equates to about 550-610whp on "power bragging dyno"....

In my honest opinion... a 2.3 with a 35R is a great setup, but dont skimp on headwork.... you need to get the added air in and out of the motor also...

Depends on your purpose of the car... if its for drag.. go with a high revving 2.0... street/roadcourse... 2.3 with a medium frame turbo is fun.

cheers

ps, im going smaller on my shop car for time attack now... not even 35R sized.

 

if you want,

start 35R, and let me know, i can get the upgraded comp wheel put on your 35R with a custom antisurge housing..

You seem like you know a little....... going by your posts I will assume you will not be doing the install/tune by yourself. With that assumption out of all the current kits I would drop my car off at a premier shop and use a 4088TS from Full-Race or
35R-HTA from FP/Buschur. Have a 25psi pump map and a 36-38psi race map all done.

Do it all at once too go PM some people who did it in stages and ask them how they would do the build if they could do it again.

Good luck.

 

the BB turbos are sensitive and delicate!????? The main purpose of BB turbos is the robustness they offer over journal bearing turbos. The can take the pounding (not to mention surge) much better.

 

what do these turbos max out at in HP?

I've seen GT35s run into the 600s mayb lights 700s.

The T67s from what ive seen on Supras can go as high as low 800s.

and im not sure about the ETS turbo kits, but if i were to go with an ETS turbo kit it would be PT 66 or 67

 

i've never had a gt bb fail..

and the lmp race cars i drove used them, and we ran 12-24 hour races at sebring, road atlanta etc!! we had maybe 1 failure in 2 years

okay so then the question really comes down to between the GT35 and the T67 which 1 has the most turbo lag, which 1 spools faster and which has more potential for high hP?

 

35R= quicker spool less lag
35R= slightly less power

The T67 has more power and lag. I would seriously consider what Chad suggested, start with the 35 and upgrade to the 67 if it isn't enough for you.

 

that "T67" he is referring to is the Greddy kit, not the same as the 67 trim that other people are making great power with.

 

You should stick with the stock turbo or pay someone to do the whole setup for you. Sorry, you are lacking some very basic knowledge here man.

 

what the hell kind of wheel/tire combo were you using to net 1.4 60ft!?!?!

 

I was using 35x12.50 Toyo MTs

 

what do you think of a built 2.0 and im going to be using a stage 4 race head from JAM with a 37r or keep my 35r? I only use the car as a weekend street killer and make good power now... but i can feel the car wanting to pull past 7500 and i have to keeo shifting which kills me on the street and the strip

Not to put you down but stick with the stock turbo. Max it out then move on. Your Ideas are good but that's some serious cash so I doubt your dropping all that into your car now. Progressively mod your car and ask for assistance if your too lazy to use the search function which would have brought you to many threads which would have helped you btw.

On a side note; Simple mods to get you over 500whp on a dynojet.. Meth/alky injection, a 35r, and a flash should net you somewhere over 500 hopefully on the stock block which I wouldn't run like that for too long. Build your block before hand or soon after and maybe a standalone ems like aem or powerFC to get rid of the stock maf sensor.

Search FP green or 20g-lt, not 500whp about 450 range w/ meth @28psi+ and are great on the street if you're so worried about "lag".
The 30r series turbos make similar power too.

look into an ETS 50/57/58/60 trim for 500ish whp with meth @30psi +
those kits would match up/come close to similar results of buschur's 50trim and 3065

Most brand venders make or support someone's 35r most making similar power.

obviously they all have their stronger points and flaws.. quicker spooling, cast manifold, bolts up to stock loacation dp, ect.

search some **** and move on. when you start ask for support but I don't see this happening over night

Either way goodluck Hope this helped somewhat.
