Sorry for starting another one of these guys, but my needs seemed to be slightly different from the others I've search for. To start with, my power goals are mostly based are engine power, not Wheel Horsepower.

Here is what I want:

I want between 450hp to 500hp (not whp)

I want a turbo that is reliable to an extent that is . Its my DD.

I want to stay on a stock block and internals

I will be running E85

I'm looking at BBK, MAP SST, or FPgreen

I'm lean towards the SST because it seems to be the best value for what I'm looking for, but I want want your guy's opinions on the best value.

Thanks everyone and sorry again for another turbo thread.

 

No offense intended, but what is an SST? When you refer to the Green, you mean the HTA Green, not the old-school Green, right? Either the CBRD BBK-Full, or the FP HTA Green would seem like the better choices to me. However, you could wait a bit until the new BBK-XL(?) with the upgraded compressor wheel is released.

 

If I was to do a stock appearing turbo evo again it be the BBK Full for me. Mainly because of CBRD's strive for customer excellence and the BBK's track record thus far.

But T3 is for me LOL

 

Here is the SST:

Sorry i meant the HTA Green.

 

Honestly, all three that you have mentioned are good choices for your goals. The one thing I really like about the BBK is that it uses a genuine Mitsubishi center-section.

 

I would think that if you are going to run E85, you could run your stock turbo and achieve this goal. If going by a dynoject, you should be around 400 whp depending on bolt ons, add ~10% back on (due to loss in power to the wheels) and you are around 440bhp.

 

i really want to hit that 500bhp line, or at least close to it.

 

you need to search...there is plenty info on all those turbos with the exception of the SST

evos in the us are not measured with flywheel hp so you aren't going to find numbers like that you'll have to convert wheel hp numbers
