should be enough. I ran it with the gt35r and the injectors percentage was around 85% with about 29 psi. I'm started to see 90% about 32 psi so changed to 880 now. For your case it should be ok.

Why do you want an rnr kit? So far all of their kits don't really make that great of power. Is that whp goal on pump, meth, or race gas?

Have you ever driven a larger turboed car? Do you care about lag? I would get a green or IX turbo. Cheaper and you get more torque. You will make the same numbers without the lag.

rnr doesnt even exist anymore due to bad rep. look at ets, ams, or buschur, or shreareer(Cant spell it).

Well we must assume that it's an used RnR kit, so he is probably getting a good price on it...so work with it bro.

The 50 trim kit will make decent power, once you are using the Precision 50 trim turbo. I think to the end of things RnR started sellin an inferior 'no name' turbo.

My friend has their Precision ball-bearing, equal-length 50 trim kit and it runs great, that car is sweet to drive. Can't remember actual dyno #'s but he did around 400/390 hp/tq with a 2.3L bottom-end @ 20/21psi of boost on 90 octane tuned with an AEM.

RnR has locked shop and they're nowhere to be found...as I understand.

ETS is the way to go...if you're willing to up your spend from FP green $$.

well theres a couple turbos that ive checked out on here. theres a green for sale, the rnr 50trim, and a basic 20g(not the green). havent really decided yet. the rnr kit is the exact price the green is so i figured id just go with the rnr kit.

50 trim is kinda old school now. The green is basically taking the spot of all the replacement turbo's smaller than a 3065. I would go with the green. Granted an external dump is awsome and you will get better top end feeling but the torque that the green makes on a DD is just extremely fun.
