Inches away from purchasing a Garrett GT3071R with the T25 exhaust flange since thats what my manifold has currently. Its also very small so i think it will fit right where my current turbo is and will support way over my power levels. The SRT4 guys are getting about a 3 - 3300rpm spool time on them which is fairly decent. But id like a 7k redline to stretch the power out a bit.

 

damn. sounds awesome, what horsepower you shooting for??

 

Anywhere between 350 and 400whp. Shouldnt be hard with the 3071R.

 

after writing to hahn about the super 20 kit and him saying it would physically fit and some other things, i may go with that one because it has the portfueler kit.. that and hopefully this tuning, and id be good to go

then when i forge the interneals and do some other things i could really push the turbo higher, but i guess for now it would have to be turned down..

 

I want those stage 3 cams from JBP but i dont wanna spend 800 on them.

 

Rememper the limits of your trany to during your build

 

my auto is bullet proof for this engine.

 

Realy? I thought that the stock auto was only good for 300 torq. Ps. im an auto

 

Well considering I am starting out at 155 and dont plan or dream of making more than about 230(N/a) It is bulletproof for my application.

 

325lbs torque gearbox

the tranny should still be fine depending on how i drive.. plus gm makes a performance auto tranny so either way if something did happen id buy the GMPP auto tranny

 

There are plenty of Cavi's running over 300lb/tq on the F23 transmission along with Hahn and their 11 second sunfire.

 

Werd, what is the tq rating for the 5 speed?

 

Like 155 lb/tq

Its should hold fine as long as your not beating it up with wheel hop and burn outs. Get a decent clutch and axles and dont beat on it and it should hold out for awhile. I will be getting a second one to have incase something happens. I may be purchasing it from Dan(with the 1450hp build).

 

what about replacing this with the sabb 6 spd tranny...hmmmm

 

have fun^^^

 

why do you say that...it was a serious question...

 

I thought about the 6 speed thing also if i blew my tranny to bits.. i no a couple GM sites that have modded auto trannys and 6 speed trannys modified off the cobalt ones for way more power, i found them when looking at the GMPP trannies..

 

i would love to have a 6 speed manual tranny on my car ..yummy

 

from looking at the qualife 6 speed kit and maybe somehow getting a new housing and some other crap it may be able to work with some serious money.. to much money though.. looking at around 6 grand roughly from a estimated guess..
