Thread: upgrade from a disco potato?

what would be a good upgrade from a disco to make close to if not 500hp, iv been lookin at some holset turbos, they all get good reviews

thanks!

budget and what manifold are you going to use. I would have a pte 6262 and be done.

most id wana spend is about 1k, most likely ill get a protech or a mazworks

you have the fuel setup to support a large t3? You have a tuner that will optimize your setup? You realize 500hp is useless on the street? Need more details on your motor and other things.

a log manifold and a used sc61 will run about 1k. It will also make the power you are looking for. You have a few turbo options you can go with.

How far do you need to stretch that 1k?

Injectors, manifold, turbo, piping, intercooler (probably), retune, fittings, etc?

6262!

But you will need a good ammount of supporting mods to get you to that whp range, with 1K I am going to say that it cant be done (in a safe way) unless you get everything for ultra chap, and still you will be hard pushed

super tech vavles springs retainers, s4s, wiseco pistons, manley rods, still building it at the moment, i dont need 500hp but you dont really see any fast p10s in my area ever, just 240s

i second this but ur gonna need to do alot of other upgrading if u havent

PTE 5868 isn't too big but give you some good head room for more power later.
