You will build psi when you give it gas, just not full boost, my buddies Evo has a 30R on it and it builds about 5-8psi until it rips your neck off at around 4K

Ok, 5-8 psi is still slow as ****. Plus thats a 30R, mines gonna be a 35R. Bigger turbo.

you posted turbos that are useless unless you absolutely nail down the design on manifold.

i know you dont know how to, and i doubt cam does....

a twin scroll turbo on a "normal" flow manifold is just that...normal.

Well if he managed to get a sponsorship with Full-Race I would imagine they would design a manifold to match. They do some awesome work for Nissan and Honda.

re-re

wake up here smalls.

a 30r will build the power you want, and it'll come up quicker then the 35r based compressor wheel.

as for your ignorance galore comment about "only garrett" turbos....open your eyes here.

while most the industry, at least the trusted industry, use's only garrett center sections. that's where the similarity ends.

the only and best way to nail down your "wish list" is to open your eyes and do some looking.

a hybrid turbo, built by say, prescion, will run a 30 or 35r CHRA but with a higher flow housing and specialty wheels.

most the big dawgs in the turbo world run turbos such as this. a BW ETT compressor wheel, on a 35R CHRA with a big billet shaft and prescion housings (regarded as the best)

basically a 35r that spools like a 28r and gives the air flow of a 42r.

Who knows. He managed to get "sponsorships"...or at least free stuff from CP Piston, Center Force Clutch, Crane Cams, and Autometer.

You know, the other day George (Cobalt_Supercharged), noticed the quote in my sig I knew he jinxed it by saying that!!! It ran for almost exactly 1 month before it was down again. Also, I talked to Ray Bates from Bates Engineering about my valvetrain, and he said a cam with a ground down base circle will throw off the valvetrain geometry, and it will always have problems.

Lol, we were talking about this a year ago with all our builds here... Why do you think Al still has 272's and Bryan no longer has GM-R's?

I think I'm gonna sell my car, and just take the losses. I'm thinking about buying a early 90's eclipse/talon and doing a 4G63 swap, or buying some LS1 car. I'm sick of FWD and 4 cylinders. I've always been a V8 fan. Plus, heads/cam = 400+ rwhp.

Yeah but at this point I'm looking at 1000s of dollars just to make it reliable, and honestly I don't think its worth it. It was a fun experiment, but some things just don't work out

You mod any car to this degree, you will have the same problems.

Nothing more annoying than people blaming the LSJ for failing after it is so called "built". (Ahem Angelo)
