what power are you expecting?? 30psi had 240 ish BHP on standard fueling i think. except walbro pump

not really too fussed bout power although around the 200 mark would be nice! more interested in reliability tbh

i might be able to get my hands on a t34 roller bearing turbo off a focus rs thats already been fabricated onto an et manifold!
apparently i'll need to "modify" the chassis and engine mount, but i'm thinkin this size turbo wouldn't be very benificial with the basic setup i'm aiming for! i was thinking something more like a t28 off a pulsar or similar might be better!
any input on this would be appreciated

I'd be looking for a T25G from an SR20 S13 or a T28 from an S14. The pulsar turbos have a laggier turbo and you would feel the effect of this.

thats a no to the t34 then:D i'm guessin the t25g is hard to find? wot's the difference between that and a normal t25?

Its basically a larger T25, but not quite a T28.

My mate has one on his SR20 and its a very good responsive turbo.

The T34 is a bit over the top for the power you're aiming for. Although being a ball bearing unit would mean it would be pretty good for lag considering. Do you know anything about the specs of this turbo? Although its T34, it doesnt always mean its large internally. See if you can find the a/r ratios and wheel trim sizes of this turbo.

not to sure of spec but aparently its not a big 1, just think it sounds great bein able to tell people its got a t34 on my little 1.8 lol! will try and find out spec tomorrow and post it up for u to c wot u think! it belongs to a mate of mine that used at mountune and now works at field motorsport so could be made from anything really

well the t34 is sold! he has got a standard focus rs turbo still though! checked on one of the focus sites and says its a garret gt25(60)sg and good for 200-330 bhp! it bolts straight onto the standard manifold too but engine mount needs moving! any1 know wot sort of boost this could run?

See if you can find the proper spec of that turbo. But that sounds a little more useable

well i've looked on the garret site and can't find this exact unit! any ideas of where else to look without registering with all the focus clubs?
