Thread: 16VE + T....Realistic Questions

OK im just about to go buy come pipework and weld it myself.

Is there any issue with sticking to 2inch?

Just as 2inch will work well space wise, and 3inch just take up so much room. Previously ive ran 2.5" on RB engines. Hase anyone got an info on power differences between pipe sizes?

i cant really answer your question dude, but im going to be using 2.5" piping

this post has been a good help for me ... im going to boost my sr16ve n1 verrry soon within a month im trying .... i was actually going to go with a t25 but t28 does make more sense ... anything bigger would create more turbo lag correct?

Turbo lag with a 200 HP 12 to 1 SR16VE N1 motor with a GT28RS or GT2871R is not going to happen.

what would be ur advice dr miko? i would love to turbo my car is it worth it ? off of what car do u recommend a turbo off of ... i get a great price on greeleaf part ... 12/12 warranty too lol what size injectors should i run?

t/28 @8 psi on your motor will satisfy you enough... also leaves lil more room for improvement...
boost it an leave the set up lookin OEM.

Hes suggested about

gt2871
or gt28rs

or you could by my bb37 and have plenty of room to grow with your setup.

I'm also going turbo on my sr16ve powered pulsar (order is in with a local speed shop). I'm going GT2860RS, Custom Steel adjustable gears to help with overlap on the big cams. I've also got a standalone ECU (Link G4 Storm, fitted in January), to help get the tuning correct. By my calcs (admittedly I'm new to turbocharging) 10psi should be a safe maximum on this setup. Any thoughts? Am I missing anything? There isn't as much information out there on turbo'ing a sr16ve as I'd like, so any information would be appreciated.

ill be going with a wrx turbo with 455 incjectors 255 fuel pump fmic gti-r manifold and 255 walboro
