been looking into some turbos.
what is a good size turbo to be looking for,for a stock compression clp block ?

 

gt45r

 

Holset hx40

 

What manifolds are you using?? custom?? or accord ones??

 

What are you looking for peak HP, or a broad tq band?

 

Spend the money on a new tranny first

 

+1 6spd or bust. Literally.

 

holset hx35w here

 

Im using a GT35R works good for me

 

.62 trim is the min you should go from what one of my friends said and he works on turbos everyday.

 

^go boost with me already. be some killer cl's roaming around illinois

 

Already are, and in the shop getting more done

 

sweet. same with another member and his sc install :nitrous:

 

What have you been up to with the car? updates please?

 

Did you tune your car? If so with what?

 

You know stepping back from the Supra community, I have to admit seeing these model numbers for turbo's is kinda weird... I guess I'm just used to a 76mm being average size

 

^ Lol

I think you can make it work.

 

Using the greddy blue with the tune that the guy before me gave me becuase he had his car dyno tuned. Then a guy i know down here who tunes cars attached his comp up to it and we took a few passes down I-10 to tweek it a bit because it was running a bit weird.

 

It's in the shop now trying to figure out some compression leaks. After that's fixed, while it's there I'm having them throw in the AEM F/IC and Meth Kit and will be ordering the custom max boost pulley. Thinking about custom pistons too to lower compression for the longevity of the motor. I'll create another thread though when all is completed

 

oh nice. What a/f ratio did you end up with? How many lbs of boost? Any dyno results?

 

Ohh custom pistons may be pricey, let me know how much and where you found them. What meth kit you go with AEM? What size max pulley are you going with 3.3 inch?

 

well before my clutch went out for the 2nd time and after the street tune i believe it reading 11.5 or 12 on my wide band. Im not for sure havent really been paying too much attention these days since i am treatin it like a baby for the 700mile new clutch break in. I am runing 6psi right now but i have a tune for 10psi if i want to use it but i was told to use it on a track with race fuel. No dyno yet probably gonna do that when i go back home to VA.

 

Home to VA? What part?

 

northern Va , Fairfax area.
