Turbo/exhaust mani for my car

[scheides]

I vote 5862. With the 2.4, the bigger turbine wheel will do wonders.

That MAP kit looks nice, everything in one package!

T3 will be laggier and 62 exhaust wheel will be laggier, so depends on how much lag you want.

I'm "only" looking for 500whp hahahaha

With the power cars make these days, "only" would be the appropriate term haha.

Think back 4-5 years ago, 500 wheel would be a pretty nuts street car. Now it seems there are more than a few running around.

If I was aiming for that power, I'd be all about keeping it simple myself. FP Manifold, some sort of bolt on turbo, etc. Pretty sure Kerry made ~550awhp at DB on a 2.4, FP mani, and SCM61 a couple years ago. He ou-tspooled my T3 S362 setup w/ SLS tubular mani, and made similar power.

How about a FP Cast stock-placement maifold, FP HTA DSM82 bolt-on turbo and one of their custom o2 housings (or make your own?). Price is right and brad made damn good power on his old 2G:

That was on a stock 6-bolt too!

LOL, didn't even see this, great minds think alike :)

Lots of good opinions guys, thanks! This is making me realize that I am building too big. Either I should drop some of my stuff down a notch (probably don't need 3.5" exhaust or 3" IC pipiing either) or raise my hp goal. I'll have to do some more thinking, but pretty sure I am leaning towards a 5858 in a mitsu housing and FP cast manifold now. It will save me some money and should easily meet my goals.

I really don't see myself needing much over 500-550 whp, I had 460 before I sold my stuff and I thought that was a blast. That was on an old style SCM61 with stock intake manifold.

^^ seams like a solid plan, keep it simple and you should hit the goals you want with that turbo. Do you have an intercooler and that stuff already?

I have a huge garrett core that I was going to make custom end tanks for. I may just sell it and get something with tanks on already and go a bit smaller there too.

Oh right on. I was gonna suggest the vrsf speed kit. Works good, is cheap and a full kit.
