I am looking for the best turbo for my set up right now. My mod list is

ID 1000cc injectors
aem 320 e85 ful pump
kelford 272
beehive valve springs
3" ets intercooler
omni 4 bar
megan tubular header
grimspeed boost controller
full 3" exhaust
OTP cut out in front of cat
on evo 9 turbo

I haven't been tuned on e85 yet or with the cut out. i made 370whp on my last tune.
im shooting for 500+whp and wanna find the best turbo for this.

 

On a stock block, a bigger turbo might be better so that you don't build up too much torque down low and grenade the block. A FP Black would definitely get you over 500whp.

 

Plenty of threads like this already on here man, there's tons of information on different setups and their results. All depends on what you're wanting to do with the car honestly. Get rid of that Megan manifold, if it hasn't cracked already it will in the future. I had one and there were cracks everywhere. If you're wanting to go stock frame, I'd recommend the FP Red. It will definitely get you 500whp on E85 and you get to keep the hot parts you have now. There are other options as well, Precision Turbo has numerous options available for basically whatever you want.

 

it already has a crack and still won't fit right
but i am trying to get a bigger turbo right now and prob will go back to stock manifold when i put the new turbo on until i can afford a better one. what do y'all think about the GTX3582r?

 

FP Green or BBK for me

 

my vote -- DBB FP Red or BBK (Ball Bearing Version)

Boostedwrx --- nice #'s on your power #impressed!

 

so if i go FP Red do i need new o2 housing? and i need to to bolt up to stock manifold.

 

BBK full BB if you want to spend that much money. That's what I'll be buying when I spend the money on a new turbo. Just do your research on the results from this forum... it's pretty hard to go past.

 

Precision 5858 + good tuner.

 

BBK-3B will get you there on E85.

I would not go to a T3 setup, too much lag..

 

I vote FP red as well. Thats what im running with my stock 2.0 on ethanol. still waiting on the weather to break to have it tuned passed 30psi.

 

5858, 6262, gtx3582r, holset hx35 or hx40, hta 3586r, FP black, Borg warner s300 series..

 

I'm at 450whp/400wtq on the stock block right now on my Evo IX with the FP 71HTA CHRA upgrade. With bigger injectors and some S2's I should be around the 500whp mark.

 

HTA 3586r is probably a bit too much if all he wants is 500hp. Maybe a 3582. That's what I'm running and if not for running out of fuel pump I'd be over 700hp right now.

 

All of those huge turbos are too much. FP green, FP red (will get over 550), or BBK-B-BB will suit his goal and hit full boost at a reasonable RPM (less than 4500). He'll likely need more fuel for E85 (walbro 450 pump, and 1200cc+ injectors)
