Default what power would i get with my new turbo

well ive just brought a new turbo and down pipe so what difference will it make

quick spec
cosworth stage 2 hybrid
custom down pipe into full mongoose
autospecialists manifold
fully ported efi manifold with modified fuel rail
gotech mfi with braided loom on dark greens (got greys to fit if needed)
stage3 big valve head
piper cam kit/ double valve springs
genuine gaskets
arp bolts throughout
woszner low comp pistons
pec steel rods
fully worked crank
airtech rad/front mount/breather/group a filter

and all the little bits new and modified to match

ive also just brought a cts stage 2 as i got it cheap with helix 6 paddle

need to know what difference the turbo and greys will make over a stage3 t3 and greens, and im looking at changing the inlet to a xr3i one fully ported and modded for fuel rail ect with a cosworth throttle bodie

the turbo's are of similar size so it'll be more to do with what boost you run through it if you after a bigger turbo for more power you'll need a t34 or gt2860/2871 and you'll then need the greys

he said its a 2wd stage 2 hybrid with .48 housing and cut back blades ect with -34 actuator and down pipe ....

he said that its on his 2.1 zvh with newman/stage3 head/pectel t2 /custom injectors/

and its running 239bhp at 15psi

so is this about right and would it suit my spec more than a stage3 t3 , ive seen his car run a 13.9 quarter with loads of wheel spin right till 3rd gear with just 15psi.....

Unless the compressor is bigger than .55 it's the same as a Stage 3 RST T3 so wont be any difference Mark.
Cut back blades will actually make it laggier too!

ok mate ive just spoken to him a minute ago hes got the full spec on his computer and is going to send it to me but he said its running 239bhp and 261lbs @17.5psi on a 2.1 zvh so i just thought it might suit mine abit better i think with the power its making it must be a t34 but i will check...

well a mate of mine wanted one of the turbos and if the cossie one wont make no difference its pointless pulling mine apart again so he will have the other then for his zetec turbo

Karlos correct me if im wrong, but a proper stage 3 t3 should pull 25psi all day long????

If thats right then the turbo you already have is fine mate.

as i said above basically the same turbo so not worth swapping as you can run 25 all day long as pointed out by rob if you want more you'll have to step up to a t34 but they not that much bigger but can just about break the 300 mark with it where as the t3stg3 runs out of puff around 275

thanks guys well im just going to get the cts box and keep my turbo for now and i will save up and get a bigger turbo spec'ed to fit later but if i can do 250bhp i will be chuffed to bits.... but ive just relised that my mfi-efi adaptor plate will restrict my engine abit so im gunna sell it with my efi inlet which is fully ported out.

and im going to get a xr3i one modded to suit as i like the look of them.

cheeRS guys wont be long and it will be going up ace cafe ect
