ahhh...nice...100octane is perfect for what you have listed so far.

what are your power goals? and do you know the exact specs of the turbo you want to use?

 

I should say are you still wanting to use that turbo you have listed?

 

I have to see if that gas station still sells the 100 octane if not im screwed with 91, hmm yea im still looking into that turbo. its a t3.60-1 .63 trim

 

power goals, i mean i just wanna have fun with it, you cant do too much here in cali cuz its real bad with cops since were an hour from Los Angeles and they pretty much have the same attitude towards imports as LA, closest track here is Famoso Speedway. But i would say 260-300whp

 

I was really looking into that one, i want something that spools quick and gives me great power.

 

I would say that would do it as long as the turbo holds up. just saying.
i would guess someplace in 8-10psi range should get you in the ballpark of your goals. I havnt crunched the numbers, im lazy today...lol
if you want to learn what a garrett 60-1 turbo can do go to www.turbobygarrett.com there you can find out how to do the math for yourself and get a compressor map for a garret 60-1 turbo. this will be a good comparo.

 

id talk to weezy or someone els who has run a 60-1 to get a better real world estimate of power.

 

Like i said my boy here in town with the only boosted tC here made 273whp/280lbs with 7 pounds on the exact same setup except he had a cast iron mani.

 

nice!

 

I didnt catch that earlier...sorry

 

he selling me his set up, with a aem fi/c tuned at 7psi. except ima dump the mani for a new one and maybe a new intercooler. i posted it on the original post

 

youve got a good start i think. I am a little leary about the turbo brand but if it works it works. good luck and happy boosting!

 

Yea i am too, but my friend convinced me that its been holding up strong on his 200sx se-r and that its a reputable company. I was looking them up and their time attack 240sx placed 3rd or 4th place.

They say they have Garrett Internals so i mean its worth giving it a try. But thanks for the help man you were the supportive one lol

 

anytime

 

91 octane is fine. Its all we have in Cali unless you want to fork out $7+ a gallon for race fuel.
Sounds like a solid set up, IMO 60-1 takes too long to spool but does make great power on low boost and getting custom intercooler pipes to fit without cutting bumpers and shrouds and what not is a huge PITA.
I had a fully custom kit, and had to destroy my bumper, now i completely regret it, then i got a greddy kit and i STILL had to cut a little more, now i have a turbotoyotas kit and the piping is still funky....bleh...

 

^Yea ive never seen anything higher only at tracks...
low boost...how much boost you think it would make great power at?
Yea man i just want a ic kit that wont fit like ish on the bumper, i still wanna be able to keep apt fogs when i get some and keep a lower grill, we all know that in cali you cant show off your intercooler like other states lol. Where in cali are you?

 

Also what do people think about the Megan Manifold???

 

I am in the San Diego area. My intercooler is smiling bright all day everyday. i dont even have my lower grill on and i havent had any police problems. i would say 7-10lbs would be good for streetable use like most people run.

 

oh true im from there born in chula vista
damn your hella lucky..! wish i could do that here..so what do you do when you blow off when theres a cop by you?

 

I was there for 3 months training at the OTC.
