Turbo size for the 2200
Wednesday, April 06, 2005 11:03 AM
What would be the recommended size of turbo for the 2200 and what trim would be recommended? I'm just trying to get some info about this before I make the decision to turbo my motor. I already have a few parts needed for the motor build (valvetrain and connecting rods) and a turbo sounds like the only way to see 200 HP without spending a fortune. Thanks in advance...............

yeah that will kep up till you want to go beyond the 300hp mark, and will spool pretty quick, a t3/t4 hybrid will work also, and can support more powre down the road, and if you keep the turbine side a .48 with a stage 3 wheel, it will spool just as fast as a super 60. then to increase CFM, all you have to do is change out the compressor side.

MY turbo is t3/t4 .48/.60 w/ a .57 trim stage 3 wheel...Spools as soon as I hit the gas hard, but stays right below boost if I am just drviving normal... perfect IMO! I also have a 2200 .

T3 Super 60 sounds good actually. Did a little research on it and seems like the logical choice for me. I was planning to run about 10-11 PSI (maximum) in my car. I am figuring that I will need injectors and an S-AFC, but will stock compression Wiseco forged pistons do the trick and far as taking the boost? Or should the compression be lowered? Also, where is the best place to buy a turbo manifold for a fair price. Nothing to expensive, just functional and reliable........ Thanks again
