Thinking of going turbo. Guess who?

Me!!

Never thought the day would finially come. But im seriously considering going turbo. I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about turbo setups because i don't. I know basics. Would like to know about different size and brand turbo's....T3 you know that kind of thing. Intercolling will be a must for me. Last thing I want to do is put a small ass turbo on and be slower lol. What can i expect out of such and such turbo?

I'm going to go price and read up on zzp's site so no one post anything off of there lol.

Figured this section would be better than the turbo section since it rarley gets visited.

Also what are some of you guys running for injectors? I have 42.5's but i may need the 65's or whatever. Just give me whatever you got. TIA

How much money do ya got? Since your already in the 12's and always looking for more power, why not just save up and do it right with a stattama kit and T67 turbo, ask matt about the bullseye turbo's also. That and your going to need a 1" gm racing chain in the tranny for any good turbo setup.

No money right now lol. I have the 7/8's chain as you can see. so that may prevent me from doing this because i wouldnt want to put a small turbo on.

Seems like you wouldnt need a 1'' because most of the power is in the upper rpm range there fore your already moving elimating most of the shock of you launching.

Why not go with a centrifugal blower instead?

I wouldnt mind that except I dont like how they mount. With the bar. And I dont think i have a lot of options with those....but IDK you tell me. lol

I would go ahead and get the 65# injectors.....they are only a few bucks more, and pay off in the end. what fuel pump do you have? I would upgrade automaticlly to a walboro, or Racetronix..... what cam do you have? what are your goals?

there are a lot of questions that need to be asked before picking the right turbo for you. I'd call Garret, Turbonetics, or Bullseye to get the proper MAP for your current configuration. they would be able to tell you which turbo would be optimum for you. all these universal kits....all do the same. give you a baseline bolt on.
