Official Turbo LSJ thread!!!
better cooling. i've never seen above 180 with this setup. and being able to rev the engine a little faster since its chain driven. cleans up the engine bay as well cause it takes place of the ac compressor. so i don't have ac lines all in my engine bay. by switching to the electric pump, ac delete, balance shaft delete, my engine revs a lot faster. heres a video of the pump

I cant wait to i finish paying off the balt so i can start seriously building this thing. 1 year left or less though

So far i have to stick to hit 380whp as my current goal with stock internals until then

I live in TEXAS lol, no AC is
on street car. Ill keep the AC, but the balance shafts are def going as soon as I can.l8r,
PD
balance shaft delete removes the water pump and makes you go electric, which goes where the ac compressor goes.. unless you can get your hands on someone who can do the balance shaft delete but keep the factory water pump
thats probably what they did. cause i was asking about the ewp anyways. i don't have ANY of the hvac lines haha. no t-stat housing, lines, compressor, condensor, oil cooler, whatever that pipe is called that goes from the waterpump to the housing, etc. thats why i want to go with a different piping setup so all you see is the cold side going in to the manifold. would look so clean
if the 252 is over kill for my goal of 350 what is a good turbo that will get me to 350. an i didnt think 700 bucks was that bad of a price on zzp's website unless im just being silly about it=...i have no clue
The 252et isnt $700 on their site. The 256 is $750 and from their description on the turbo kits they say the 256 is good for 350 whp.
guys whats all i would need if i wanted to go external wastegate? i know i need a different turbo mani, another turbo, wastegate dump, waste gate obiously...what else? would my hahn dp work if i were to switch turbos
I figured it would not be over kill if i had my tuner dial down the timming a some and set my boost at 10-15psi. I figured its all in the tune. I just figured ball bearing turbo spools quicker and flows more air. then the joural turbo.s do. so i figured that would be the turbo to go with. an like someone said almost no lag which is a good thing.
would i need 78lb vavule springs and netural balance shaft ? to for this turbo build ?

or you could just modify the hahn mani welding a ewg flange on it and block off the internal on the turbo lol
