well i put my car away for this year and i got some ideas of what i want to do my goals for next year are low twelve’s high to maybe mid elevens what would be a good turbo that would get me down to those times and still be street able. Thanks

are you looking to keep the stock torque converter or change it to match a turbo?

 

[87LimitedT]

change it to mach the turbo

I'd start with some 60# injectors, then maybe get a downpipe, then some alky, then converter, then turbo!!!!

X2! This would be a good start. IF your looking for good street manners and lots of potential(low 10s), a good combo as of late is a 6776 ball bearing turbo and a PTC 2800 or 3200 stall 10" lock up converter...but for high elevens, a 6152 turbo would work pretty well, and you would have some growing room as well!

about how much boost would i have to run.

depends on the turbo you choose and your combo. I'd say with alky you can find a nice spot in the low 20's...

3255 or TE44 with garrett .63 ex housing. Stock converter. Alky with stock injectors or any injector that is 36 lb/hr or more. A good tuning tool that data logs.

TE45 would be for mid to high tens The 44 is plenty and will work with way less converter.
