Had a greddy turbo kit on my EM1, it was alright but didnt like the spool up time (4800 rpm) so i was thinkng of doing my all motor B20vtec into posible a turbo set-up instead since i have commited to my pistons yet. (although i already have S2 Stg.2 cams).

If i do decide to go turbo again which would you guys think would be an all around Good turbo with a quicker spool time other than the greddy 18g on my B20/vtec. Id like a smoother powerband ,mine spiked up after 5000 rpm's and died off at 7200 rpms, and on a b16 tranny with turbo it flew thru those RPM's with little traction.

My old set-up:
Stock head/Block B16
Full gredy kit (stock 7.8 Psi)
Big greddy Intercooler
Greddy type-S Bov
310CC injectors
Full MSD Igniion with 6AL
Jun flywheel
ACT 2600 Clutch with unsprung clutch
Walbro 255 LPH FP
Aem FPR
Aem Fuel Rail
2.5 Inch Apexi dunk Exhaust (no Cat)

Made 181 TQ and 221 HP

Car made no power before 4800...spiked from 4800-7200rpm and fell on its face afterwards. So i MIGHT go turbo again if i can match up a faster, smooter powerband turbo trying to reach a conservative 300 Useful HP on my b20/vtec. It has more displacement so should spool up a turbo quicker, and i no longer have the greddy kit so i would start from scratch...or sould i just go for the all motor route and go for 300 HP with Spray???

gt28rs is a good turbo for about 350whp and super quick spool

 

This is a Project & Build Area, so add some pics or your car & make this more like a project thread.

Thanks,

b20's stock sleeves dont like much more than 300whp.

 

get a 16 g eclipse turbo if you like a fast spool I personally like big turbo i run a sc61 but thats just me.

 

the gt28rs will MAX at 350whp. it would spool 300whp very quickly.

 

b2o sleeves. fml

 

damn that sux^^ i personally like sc61

 

So what was ur set-up to do that to ur sleeves?....so i know what not to do...lol

 

im using a greddy tdo5 18g spools at 250-3000k, hold good power up to 7300,

this is on a stock b20b w a cometic h/g and arp head studs. more bottom end work to come
