2.2 Custom Turbo build
We are doing a custom kit with a T3/T4 turbo 60 trim cold side with a .63 hot side stg.3 wheel,Log style turbo manifold,2.5" downpipe to 3" exhaust system,2.5" intercooler piping.Fueling are going to be 440cc injectors.For tuning we going with AEM Fuel / Ignition Controller but would like some opinions for other tuning. After we get car tuned we are going to be making a SRI with a custom fuel system and run a GT3071R turbo with a built motor. The first setup is going to be done for 10psi and the following setup will be done at w/e the AEM can do.
Here are some pics of the setup

i was plannin for that too but decided it was better and easier to go with the garrett kit when i get the money. i had the full kit just missing tuning (which i have now) wasted tons of money and 2 years tryin to do it custom lol

umm, you dont wanna get a new manifold? If your going to make it yourself you might wanna consider weld el's...that manifold doesn't look very flow friendly

there is a school of thought that if you have the manifold be rather restrictive, and a VERY open exhaust, the turbo will spool up faster.

well, i tend to feel that more flow = more better over all, but the idea is that the difference in pressure on opposite sides of the turbine allow it to spin harder, i'm not enough of a turbo nut to make a judgement

the biggest problem with going with any other type of mani is space...gotta work with what room you got
