Makes sense now. I'd like a report back once you take that 362 to 26+psi!!

Looks like s258 for me w/ a dose of E85.
Tax check should be here any day now.. I'll report back with some numbers here.
Can you use the Oil Drain say... one for a T04B V trim for S256/8 as well? or will I have to get a new flange/bolts
There has been more than one person that has made 600whp on bolt on housings...... but.. just because it has been done do not mean it should be done. Reaching that level of horsepower there has to be alot of back pressure.
doesn't the smaller A/R allow for quicker spool? I plan on hitting 500+awhp - I'm using the FP manifold, which I like a whole lot better than all the other manifolds - I really don't want to change it out for a T3 setup - because yes it adds to cost.
I wonder if there is anyway we can get an FP30 housing on this turbo... that'd be the ticket I think. it'd be nice to see if we could do something with the FP30 housing, or if BEP could build a bigger A/R bolt-on housing - I know they're working on one for the S300 series, that'd HAVE to be bigger right? Maybe we could adapt that one as well?
Despite all the hype, both the FP and BEP housings have made just over 600whp fully choked out. I don't think it would be worth the effort even if it were possible. BEP talked about making a larger AR bolt-on housing a long time ago and dropped the idea because they didn't think they'd sell enough of them. The S300 series is currently available in the bolt-on housing, it's the same size as all the other BEP bolt-on housings.
95GSXBLUR said:ok, so it runs slightly hotter - meth or E85 will make it colder, not to mention the 12x24x3.5 bar and plate intercooler that I'm running with short route piping. I RARELY see intake temperatures 10+ over ambient on regular pump gas even @ 20-24psi.
I understand that a t3 or a t4 is going to make "more" power, it may sacrifice a little spool.. who cares. I run a 2.4l - it's going to spool just fine I'm sure. If I wanted to go all out power crazy, I'd run something even bigger GT42R, S356, etc.
My points are that this turbo will allow me to bolt it up, turn in on, and go. All while having quick spool, producing 500+awhp numbers on some form of pump fuel.
Does anyone have any comments other wise? Anyone believe that this is unachievable with an S258? IMO I believe that this turbo is going to put me right where I want to be, low 11's maybe even high 10's - and perform on the street.
what if I'm only trying to top out @ 500whp? That's 100 less than it's capable of. I've been building this car for 4 or 5 years now and I'd almost like to move on. This is the last turbo I'd like to buy.
To work with the things I have - do you guys will do the job, without a whole lot of difficulty?
We got these numbers out of the .70 A/R single entry housing and wouldn't go any other way on a T3 based system.
If you were looking to go with the DSM setup then needless to say the .55 is the only real way to go. The .55 would do nicely with the DSM setup on a 2.0L. It's netted us well into the 400whp range and the top end on these turbos are insane! They just keep pulling and pulling.
I just hope the rest of my car is ready for this kind of power.
