Well, my turbo is blowing oil so it's probably time to pony up for another. I just go permission to buy one and I want to see what you're suggestions are for my application. Let me tell you my mods and how I drive my car:
Car: Currently is a daily driver.
Mods: Exhaust, SMC Kit, 40# Injectors (good deal), Adjustable reg + Walbro 340 w/hotwire, powerplate, and Big Mouth Cold Air Intake.
STOCK TURBO and INTERCOOLER at the moment.
I'd like to buy a downpipe at the same time I buy the turbo too. So any deals on both would be nice.....
My Goals: I'd like to get in the low 7s in the 1/8 mile and retain most of the streetablity of the turbo. I've read on here that the TE-44 and TA-49 are awesome street turbos and I'm considering one of them, but I'm open to all suggestions. Trans was recently rebuilt with a stock D5 Converter, but in another year or so that could change. I'd like to do the Dutt neck, but might save up for a bigger intercooler anyways...
Thanks for taking your time to read and help,
James
PS, I said I'd never mod this car when I bought it.... how quickly things change in a year...
