What turbo

[syclone58chevy]

I have 60 pound injectors good aluminum heads edlebroc lower intake Holley tbody and a custom sheetmetal upper intake. Trying to figure out what turbo to use with this set up. I have alky as well and 3000 stall any suggestions? Also I can't use stock intercooler and might sell intake and use ported stock intake looking for thoughts on both and where to buy turbo thanks

Re: What turbo

GT35R or bigger with bigger injectors

Re: What turbo

60series type of turbo would be fine you will be in the 450-500 hp range depending on some on bottom end and how much boost you want to crank up

Re: What turbo

I would go with pte 60 series turbo as they make the back housing that matches up for our truck. I just went with a pte 6262 which is similar in size to your average 35r. Also you can pick up 3" dp from rpm if you don't already have one as they bolt right up to the pte turbo.

Re: What turbo

Waiting on my GTX3582R, should be here Monday... But I would ask the same questions red typhoon did, what are you trying to do with the truck, bottom end and boost levels? My goal being under 22 psi(as close to 16psi as I can keep it) and about 450 wheel hp on a DD. But I'm build with meth and all the coolers, pumps ect... 3200 stall and l35 heads. Now it seems your running something along those lines, the GTX is expensive but I really wanted to keep it water cooled since its a DD and ball bearing since its a pretty big ass turbo, the billet wheel was a bonus since that's huge on spool time. The other options I was looking at were the Turbonetics stuff, ie the gtk 600-700 or the 62-1 hybrids.

Re: What turbo

PTE 6266dbb,will work with what you have and pretty much anything you want to do later.A little bigger than a gt-35 but will work well w/ 60's,especially if you do cam and heads later.Ulta fast spool w/ only a 2800 stall.

Re: What turbo

I have a GT35r on mine and 2800 stall, vortecs, 63lbs and meth. It spools FAST.

I am starting to wish I went with a bigger turbo. If PT6266 is larger then start there but you could handle bigger than that I think.

Depends what you want to do, like people said...
