what turbo do you guys think for this set up
I will be driving on the street to.
Turbos in mind are
FP3052 or FP3065

Well if you'r lan-evo 3 is you'r daily driver then go with the fp 3052 it will spool quicker then the 3065 and still give you an overwelming amount of power .

To me I think you'r evo 3 turbo is great for track use and definitally touge racing because of the response and power it gives you.

If you post turbo questions up everybody will ask you what you'r plans will be and so on , but only you can ultimately decide what you whant to sacrifice to get to you'r goal.

P.s look into stroking you'r engine , remember tourqe is a good thing ,especially on the street.

From now on, I'll be using the Spell Check, the shift button to capitalize the proper words, and punctuation in my posts.

Sorry to be off topic. But could you just post them on here. I would like to see also.

When you say "street driven" and "turbo upgrade" in the same set, exactly what are you willing to sacrifice in driveability? Depending on your redline and how hard you plan to drive the car, it's all going to be a choice of when you want full boost. Both turbo's are great, and should provide plenty of power, the only question u need to be specific on, is how much power are you going to need?

Both turbos are great, and FP is known for making quality products. Their previous turbos should pretty much show you their set standard as to how the new FP30 series will be quality wise.

thanks for the feed back

i dont mind lag up to 4000 rpm

I want to up grade the 16g because im wanting more top end power

with standed engine and the normal mods (3inch ex, filter, chip, 1 bar boost, porting here and there) i did 12.5

im hoping to get into ezy 11s
with my new upgrades

You have one SWEET ASS car. As for the turbo, if you don't mind some lag then I would go with the 3065, JDM did a write up on that turbo so you might be interested in reading that to find out what he thought.

And heres a link to his writeup

what is the lag like on the 3065?

 

[Revolution]

This example is a bit out thier,,,,,, but try to imagine two football players. Both are on steroids both will hit you harder then any other on the team but one is 5'10 /250 pounds of muscel, while the other is 6'2 and weighs 320 pounds . The smaller player will easily beat the bigger one in a running compatition , but the bigger guy will do more damage if he hits you at full speed. Are you following so far? You can try and compare both turbos but one is geared more for street while the other is geared more for full drag cars. The reason why fp changed the 3055 into the 3052 was so it could be more of a super duper street turbo.

The 3052 was my choice because i wanted pro like power with a daily driver in mind. I hate lag and hate custom t3/t4 applications because they all vary so much . If you have the money then go with the 3052 , you dont give up much but you do gain more then you could imagine. I personally still have my car being worked on so I still cant say much about the drivability. But Everybody who's opinions matter to me have told me I will be a monster to deal with when my car is compleat. If I had an evo 3 boy I'd jump on the 3052 . Im shure from all of the great things that I've been told that its an easy ticket to the 11 second club. Hopefully in my senario my block wont blow b4 hitting a 10 sec pass.

sweet. thanks for the wise words....
still a hard decision....what does everyone else think of the 3052?? or 3065???
thanks guys.
....maybe i am leaning towards the 3052...

 

[crankbender]

You have neglected to post your expected pressures. there are some links to stuff in the FAQ post about engine flow vs RPM with varying pressure and you can then compare them to the compressor graphs to select the one you want.

 

[lanevo]

in the end i got the 3065

made 305kw and the wheels on 20psi

 

[MyÜberFastGSX]

[lanevo]
