Just gonna throw this out and see what people say but, what would be the best turbo for a 2.0 Zetec turbo to reach 300-350bhp.

Small high speed turbo? Or big slow monster?

T3? T34?? or something else?

Hybrid non hybrid?

 

I think Carisma Dave on FT is running a T34.

He got 324bph i think it was and nearly 400lb torque (this was on Ahmed or Haveys dyno I think)

 

Spud baby all the way

 

T28

 

Iam thinking about a T34 for my Zetec turbo.

 

T28 qont be happy doing 350bhp, but a GT28RS (aka the disco potato) would

Gotta be the GT28RS i reckon, its perfect for that application providing you get the compresison sensible (not got a massive exhaust housing)

Sorry ignore my figures up the top.

its now running around 350 of each

 

i meant GT28

 

Nice one chip, anywhere I can read up on this?

Anyone disagree?

 

depends of how you drive - i like big lag myself then a huge shove in the back!!

 

MadMac, GT28 are a shit hot turbo and can produce alot of boost unstressed, i ws going to have one on my RS but going for another spec, and you know what my power aim is

 

sorry but ive got a warped mind

 

GT2871R

 

trust you!

you know what i mean tho - after having a a T2 frst then a T25 i think its time i graduated to a mans turbo! something along the T34 lines would be good!

 

Summat with a 35lb compressor at 80% efficiency would be best

 

GT28RS is 35lb @ mid senties at best on effiecency (ddepending on how much boost is needed to flow it on his particular engine), nowhere near 80, so im guessing you think he should go bigger than that then stu?

35lb is normally a bit over 350bhp though, and he was talking about 300-350, so to me it seems silly going any larger than the gt28rs

 

This would be no good at all



Sorry, im ina right funny mood this afternoon

 

Theres your answer Chip
GT28RS is a damn cool turbo

 

GT28RS or GT2871 depending how far you wanted with the power.

Also depends what compression and fuel you using, amongest other things...

 

Now thats the turbo to get!!!

Compressor housing is bigger than my f*king head! BY head i mean the one with my brain in!

 

GT28R would be better for a CVH, if you want something along those lines.

 

yeah deffo a disco spud , why more people aint using it i dont know

 

What turbo is that, and whys it the other way round

 

Ok idealy want the turbo to be as responsive as possiable and hit the 300-350 without to much stress on typical optimax from the shell pump (97RON isn't it?)

I think the compression ratio is going to be quite low.

 

It also comes in loads of different housings:

.86
.64
.63
.82

Soooo confusing

 

i'v just fitted a t34 .63 on my 1.8 zetec turbo. quite laggy but when it boosts, fuck me does it boost.

 

The turbo is the easy bit, getting the cylinder head to flow and deliever what you want + the rest of the engine spec is what you should really be concerned about.

350hp aint quite as easy to achieve as most people think.

then again it aint that hard either (especially when you choose a zetec over a cvh to start with + deal with the right people who have proven this before).
