50863, Best turbo for the job
Posted by BaseJaxx, Jun-20-03 08:08 PM
Ok i want to be able to stomp some serious ass at the strip and on the street but still be able to drive the car daily. What is the most powerful turbo i should put on there... i was told a stage T3/T4 was the best way to go?

a ball bearing T3/T4 can produce all the power you could want. unless you are building a strip only drag car.

T3/T4 isn't the MOST POWERFUL you can use, but it's a great turbo for what you're wanting to do with the car (street/strip). Actually, Star uses this turbo in there kits. HRC uses a S16G, upgradable to a larger S20G. Or you could just use a big ass T4! }(

I believe a T3/T4 flows more than a 20g... could be totally wrong though.

Primarily pistons & rods. I think the majority is running JE pistons/rings and Eagle Rods.
