I'll be dead honest, not exactly the smartest person or knowledgeable when it comes to swapping the turbos since I haven't looked into it at all or even what you could possibly fit in place of the stocker. But have you ever considered a Garrett? I know the GTX series is pretty wicked and anything with a 3000+ number should be able to handle 600+ with no problems. Check out the GT3076R! The GTX3582R is a 750 hp turbo, and I'm a sucker for Garrett. :P Hopefully I'm not just spamming. lol

Good luck with the swap!


P.S: Ever consider fabbing up a twin-turbo setup?

 

Yes there is a ball bearing version. Just have to do a little research to dig it up. And yes this car was running E85 with ZZP's Head/cam combo kit, ported manifold, and a few other flow adding items.

600whp is not a hard to reach goal with the correct combination and tune. Spoke with Ford the other day on this. Keep an eye out for this one in the future.

 

Only bad thing that comes with the gtx turbos is price lol. I think a 3076 will need a lot of boost for 600

 

yeah those gtx's are some money for sure. but its definitely worth it from the reviews. still gonna stick with the precision though whenever i switch.

 

I am a precision fan as well. Run one on my own car. They have a few new models out by the way.

 

yeah... i won't be using an 88mm

 

I want to know about this!

 

Whatever you get Ford, I know it's gonna be badass.

I want to upgrade to the setup you're getting bored with. lol

 

To save money can't u pick up a used 3076 and have it rebuilt with gtx wheels? Thought I heard of ppl doing this. I'm sure there will be a small loss in power/efficiency tho

 

Just a FYI your company itself said my goal would be within reach so just going by your companies statement. 2.1, 93 plus meth shitload of boost will net me nice numbers either way.

If it takes E85 then so be it not a huge worry for me either way.

Cant watch the cam anymore so i can see whats going on with the red car anymore.
I know you have rich issues with it the other day. Oh well Time will tell.

 

Eww that spool on the s262 is not pleasing. Before the S256et i was actually looking at doing a custom manifold and a EFR7670 in the first place, i could just never get a hold of one. As silverbullet stated, there will be something in the works soon

Thanks for the info everyone. I will also be looking at some suspension/tire mods to actually put this power down.

 

Every thought of say... a spooling "aid"?

 

Once I get the trans or right before it, I plan on selling the 256bb I have lol. I as well am needing to go slightly bigger for the goal I want to hit for the Texas mile in march! Silverbullet already knows this. Lol

 

Jesus you guys! My car on the s256et and pump gas is an absolute animal! On e85 it will be insane. I can't believe you guys want more!

I think the came phaser advancements would be key to having a larger turbo than a s256et or 5858.

 

Well, you talked to a lot of different people over here about a lot of different parts. The bottom line is that the setup that was turned over to me for tuning is not a 500whp type setup. LSJs on pump gas don't make that kind of power even if you had a 66mm turbo on it.

 

Gotcha, Not trying to argue anything here with you. Matt what kind of numbers do you think we are looking at then. I am a happy guy either way. Just looking for your input.

Was hoping we would push the turbo to 30+psi since it was at 26 before i dropped it off. If you want to shoot me a email you have it.

Will go E85 next season so hopefully i can get closer to the 500 then.

 

Do the EFR!

 

Annoys me because no bullseye turbos are ball bearing

 

You went big turbo? I remember when you tuned mine I believe you were running the K04 and nitrous/meth/e85....by the way, I need to head your way soon for a re-tune

 

love these threads

 

I will hold out for a complete build until we have solution to this problem. It would be sweet just imagine making HP revving past 7200? C-mon Matt M. make our LNFs rev past 8000 rpm..

 

yes. its called going from a 262 .70 a/r to a 259 .55 a/r lol

i tried to tell him... i would love to be proved wrong though. i think a bullseye/bw turbo with a BB housing and the wheel options bullseye has for their turbos would make one mean mambajamba

 

I had a coversation with him awhile back. He was saying its an AGP s256 and agp makes all their turbos ball bearing. Yeah, not so much

 

Only agp turbos that are bb are actually agp turbos. Since agp is brought up, the zetas are badass turbos. You could do a zeta 3.2.
