The car has big stuff 3. Don't know anything about boost control. Big ass blow off valve and let it make all the boost it can.

It would be easier (cheaper) to go to a procharger. Motor specs, including cam, will be almost the same as nitrous- same headers, same electronics for the most part, etc etc.

Too Loud!!!!

AMS 1000 for boost control in addition to the BS3 and your set. The Procharger would be easier...and in the grand scheme of things, loud shouldnt be a factor. Its not like you would be running an F4 or anything. A vortech YSI would also be a good choice. I have a friend with a YSI on a 393 and E-85 blow through making close to 900.

you can get the msd boost controller for under $400 and it seems to be a very capable unit. it's all electronic also so you dont have to mess with the co2 like the ams. this is the guy that i get my turbo stuff from, his name is Reed and he knows his stuff when spec'ing out a turbo

I don't know if it transfers to the V8 crowd at all but I have a Greddy PROFEC B Spec II on my GSX for boost control and it is a very nice piece that is easily adjustable and hold boost at much more constant levels than when I was using manual boost control.

I also hear the turbo smart stuff is really nice.

bov: tial
wg: tial 60mm or turbonetic nex gen 60mm

as far as import/4cyl/6cyl applications.. their are 6cyl street cars making 1800+ on twin 67mm and drag supras running gt50 and 88mm turbos... along with holset 70+mm hybrids its really nothing new to the import community..

heck ive seen evo/dsm with 80mm turbos which are 4cyl load em up and let em fly.

when the domestic guys do step up to the turbo game they seem to forget its the import comminity that got it where its at now. not saying the gnx,typhoon,sho didnt contribute but the wrx,evo,supra,rx7 comminity was paving the way

BAD BOB · 07-04-2011, 07:53 PM

as far as BOV and WG i would go with JGS. for the money you cant beat the product and quality

LXtasy · 07-04-2011, 10:32 PM

i went with a JGS wastegate also. Very nice piece.

jmd · 07-05-2011, 06:49 AM

procharger is a great setup.

VSracing.com is where I got my BOV and Wastegate from.

You should checkout our turbo recommendation calculator

Basically you need to first calculate your engine's naturally aspirated flow requirements (let's say 300cfm of air at 0psi of boost at 6500 rpm)

Based on that and based on your target boost pressure (for simplicity sake let's assume you want to double your horsepower and you will be using a decent turbo and intercooler)

So let's say you need a turbo that flows around 600cfm at 18psi of boost

Our calculator automates this entire process and even plots your engine demand on compressor maps so you can make sure you have a good fit turbo

The process I described above can take you a good half hour to do by hand if you know what you're doing. Our calculator does it in under 3 minutes.

Thanks for the help, Spybot...

Well, no turbo for me. I am going to lower the compression a little and stay nitrous. Maybe one day I'll have enough money to do a forced induction setup.
