Super5

Hi

What is the best turbo setup for a 2wd saph??

I have allready fully rebuild standard engine with cometic multi layer, 3"scorpion, rs500 intercooler, 803's, 3bar map,

Iam aiming for 360 bhp. , but don't want to much lag!

Thanks Martijn

t34 or T35 with either .48 or .55 housing to give a quicker spool up time and lesser lag down side of .48 housing will be a lesser top end therefoe in my case i went with T35 with .55 housing

If you're aiming for 360 ish i'd go for a T34.48 housing, great fast road setup with VERY little lag, had this on my 3dr, made 363bhp/360 ft.lb @ 32psi peak, holding 29..

i'd reccomend a .48 t34

personally id go t34 with .63 will not run out of puff then

Staffi

But he stated, LITTLE LAG, .63 is laggier than the .48 and makes for a fast road car..i've been in both and i know which one i'd choose for what he's after..

im going for around 380 and i want to get .55 but they come hard now so im looking for .63 but i know from previous there will be lots of lag

You will be hard pushed to get a real 360bhp on 803s

The .55 is best for all round driveability on a T34.

i to am aiming for about 360bhp and bought a new stage 2 t34 with .48 housing for quicker spin up/less lag after being advised that my old t34 with .63 housing was to laggy for my needs. my old t34 used to spin up at about 2500rpm compared to my current .48 that spins up at about 1400rpm. you do lose out at top end but acceleration is much more important to me as thats an everyday need rather than the occasional top speed run.
i bought my stage 2 t34 with 360 bearing and cut back blades new from woodford garage for £765 outright with no exchange as i kept my larger .63 t34 as a spare for possible future needs

Very true, although many will argue,

Super5, have you thought about Grey injectors??

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

I know some cars can do it but i would prefer bigger injectors to be on the safe side

Greys will flow enough for around 420-440bhp..

T34.48 on my saph,made 373 bhp at 28 psi boost .

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

but greys are old hat now in the cossie world far to slow reacting but will do the job.but ur right steve greens will be maxed out ! what he needs are 52lb/550cc blacks a chip from batman and robin ( stu& kenny) and as long as the cars up to it bobs ur mothers brother who have had a intermate relationship, but thats another story

Ive bought a t34 with a 55 housing from turbotechnics,got some siemans 55lb injectors from msd, and a chip to suit
Should be up and running next week cant wait to get it working and test it

I have the turbo, just keep thinking about doing the rest of this set up.

Need to sell my TT T38 to pay Stus bill.

I think if you're sticking with the 803s the .48 t34 is the best turbo especially with a decent custom map from Karl Norris or similar. This is what my last cossie had and it drove much better than any other 'stage 3' cossie i've been in.

A .63 t34 should be saved for greys/blacks imo...

You need to come up here for some haggis shooting.

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

Thats a lot of power for 803s and a T34.48

Sounds like you had it Rolling Roaded at EAs (Joke)

Steve.

KSA-Cossie

iTrader: (4)

I was pretty shocked too m8,staffi told me i could get big power from the spec and he was proved right.

iTrader: (15)

Who's RR did you take it to ?

Steve.

KSA-Cossie

iTrader: (4)

Dastek in dalgety bay up here.

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

We have just had a New Dastek RR open 10 miles from me, bloody good fan set up as well.

Will take the car over for a power run when i get the chance.

What boost was yours making at peak power ????

Steve.

KSA-Cossie

iTrader: (4)

28 dropping off to 25 , guys up here were very thorough .

iTrader: (15)

What was the @ wheels figure ??

Steve.

Billabong

Absolutely donkey's years ago, on the dyno, when fuel was proper.....

KSA-Cossie

iTrader: (4)

322 @ the wheels.

cossie4i+

iTrader: (15)

Thats more than mine, and im on 400s

Mine was 316 @ the wheels, but peak power was only 20.3psi

It did peak @ 25.5psi, which gave me 351lb/ft
