DO IT RIGHT THE 1st TIME. Go with a real evo 3 16g, 2g install kit, injectors, fuel pump, and something to control it. Im not including all the other little given bolt ons such as exhaust,wideband, and so on. Then you will need a front mount to make any kind of significant number because the lil side mount gets heat soaked. As far as 350 goes you are going to spend about 3 times the money you expected....or at least i did. Then when your car does start making any kind of power you will have to replace all of the old parts that will begin to break. Oh yeah and dont try to go out of control with the boost. So many people kill their cars because they make mistakes an informed person wouldnt. Get close with your local dsm shop and people. Have fun and good luck.

he is not lying about the boost and parts. even a 16g or evo3 like my car boosting 22 psi is a issue getting a nice set point and way you can run your engine and not destroy the turbo is a night mare. I though mine was gone 2 days go but i just broke the pin of the waste gate. horsepower aint cheap to come by in these cars so find a good mechanic if your not one to help with your build.

Ok heres the deal I am currently in the process of building a track car. I am building a 6 bolt motor w/ fully built ported and polished 1g head, 272's, afpr,bosch 044 fuel pump, ss -8an lines, dsmlink, gm maf, eagle/ross combo, stock crank, etc. I need to know what you guys think on what the best turbo would be for this particular setup. Oh no bolt on turbos..

GT35R is the turbo your looking for.

GT35R is the turbo your looking for.

Exactly...There isn't anything cheap about 650hp. Do it right the first time and its going to be cheaper in the long run.

I dont wanna be an ass, but I am personally not able to use the word cheap along with 650hp..

Anyways from what i've heard a GT35R would do the job.

 

[kiwidog]

Look into the Borg Warner turbos as well. From everything I have read they produce the power of the garrett's but with more torque and a better curve.

 

[silver bullit]

What about the holset hx 35-40- or maybe the 55?

 

[dsmconvict]

37r FTW!

-Chris why are you replying this is part ## car too

 

[Supa Dexta]

A 35r won't put down 650. It may have a time or two, but that was on cars built to the hills.

 

[1992awdlaser]

A 37r won't get 650hp. http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/catelog/Turbochargers/GT37/GT3782_452159_3.htm

If you mean a t67 then yes that will. There are better turbos out there though. The 40r will spool the same and make more power. The 42r will spool slightly slower but make more power then either of those. A few people that have used a t67 then went to a 42r say the 42r actually spools the same or faster then the t67 did. Andrew (super95awd) said that and a few people on dsmlink forums have said it.

I'm not disagreeing with you just adding some information to what you said.


To the original poster. Do you care if it is ball bearing or not. Ball bearing wil add a good amount of money you have to spend. And if you are using it for drag racing there is no advantage to a bb chra over a journal bearing really.

 

[Supa Dexta]

Borg warner s366, and no nothing about 650 will be cheap, to attain or maintain.

Holset. How can you go wrong with a turbo that will boost 40+psi for 500,000 miles.

it may be stong but i dont think its that strong....also you live real close to me. I'm superised to see someone else in these parts .

 

[JayRolla]

Holsets run 30-40psi stock on there diesel motors, and they are strong as hell. Balanced too 50psi when built. I think a T67 te04 would be a good deal. They can make up too 700whp and around $1000.
