Alot of turbo talk lately. Just curious, for those who have been there/done that, what turbo did you pick, why, and if your project is on the road, how do you like it?

Yea Jake, nice HiJack- I was going to mention that...
For the rest of us who either can't wait/can't afford/or just like to tinker around with our cars, looks like airsix, sammy, and bug man have BTDT. Anyone else? I'd like to know a little more, not so much about the engine mgmt used, but the hardware- what turbo, what A/R it has in the turbine and compressor sides, compressor maps, blow off valves, wastegates used, how soon do you get full boost, intercooling used, or not. I'd be more interested in massive torque than 25psi and lots of top end- Like those cones, and something more auto cross oriented than 1320 oriented is my quest. I was thinking water injection, as I used that on a ford focus I turbo'd, but in cruzing ebay, the subaru wrx/sti top mount intercoolers look good, with one inlet and 2 outlets, perfect to go along with my dual throttle bodies now on the car. |
