Default Which Turbo???

ok SO. time to pick out which turbo i want to purchase, and quite frankly i have no idea where to begin...ill start with a list of what i have and what i will be getting to support the kit

Internally:
SRP 9.0:1 Forged Pistons
Eagle H-beam rods
Benson Sleeved blocked

When i first get the kit on (im piecing one together) i will only run about 5psi everywhere, because i wont have the components to support more boost.

Eventually i will get a Fuel rail & regulator, DSm 450cc injectors, MSD ignition, new clutch (flywheel in long run), upgraded fuel pump, turbo cam.

Temporarily i will be using a V-AFC for all my fuel timing but as soon asi have the funding i'll be upgrading to hondata.

All turbo kit pieces will be of the quality and strength to hold what i'm planning to run, so dont have them limit anything.


I prefer overall power quicker than spool time..but then again i have a 6800 redline so i cant wait too long...with all these factors takin into consideration i really dont know where to begin when picking out the turbo, hopefully you all can help...

Thank you.
-Tommy.

You need to ask yourself two questions:

1. How much are you willing to spend?
2. How much power do you realistically want to make?

Turbonetics Thumper T-105!

105mm inducer; 7/16" quill; flow capacity capable of supporting up to 2,000 hp!

...and don't worry about overboosting, you'll never spool it up! lol.

T-105
