Well I want to run high 11's and I was wondering what a good turbo for that would be. I've been running the stocker and am still on stock injectors. So this is for an RB25 in an S13 hatch. I'm not sure where to really start so what do you think is a good turbo I can hit high 11's (possibly mid 11's but that would be above and beyond) for an RB25?I'm also tunning with a power FC.

LOL um so how about high 11's.......I've seen people hit like high to mid 12's on the stock turbo so I though it was going to be a little easier but that's what I get.

Better yet, can you recommend a turbo that's basically a step up from the stock turbo? Like the SR's have the S15 turbo and GT2871R, whats the RB's like S15/GT2871R....if u know what I mean?

he's a fool...don't listen to that, you know better than that (i believe he was a ricer honda boy). there's a bunch of turbo that can support 11sec. just think ~400hp. you need to think about fuel upgrade too, not just the turbo alone.

Umm your also gonna need some bigger injectors. If you go to RCeng.com there is a calculator to figure out what size you'll need.google drag racing calculator or something. to figure how much HP and how much weight you'll need to hit the 11's

Yea, I know I'll need to upgrade injectors to something above 500 or 600cc's but I dont know where to start with the turbo.

LOL errrrrrrr, I knew it!!!!garrett b18c5 gtr turbo the garret part got me. I know the b18 what ever is like a Honda engine or something and the GTR part seemed iffy, Like is it had just R at the end which stand for ball bearing It would have been better but I'm a R-Tard for googling it anyway.

Have you thought about what tire setup, suspension setup, etc you are wanting to run to hit 11s? You can do it on drag radials. I have a friend pulling them on teh 275/40/17 MT radials.

It seems people do really well with the stock suspension in the back since it gives you a lot of mash on the rear tires for pretty decent straightline grip.

Also, you can try looking at a GT30R, GT3076R, etc.

Theres a lot of stuff that goes into this, so do some research on tires, different suspension setups people are running, what kind of power they are putting down to pull the ETs they do, and tips for driving the car at the strip to get the best results.

In short, its gonna take a lot more than just a turbo to hit 11s.

i would assume for an 11 sec pas the car would have to generate atleast 400whp, which means at a BARE MINIMUM 550cc injectors and a turbo in the gt30r range...700cc injectors and a .86ar 30r or .63 gt35r should do the trick to get you to 500whp.gl keeping the traction...

LMAO @ This thread.

Running 11's entirely depends on your driving skill as well... Get some slicks to help yourself out while searching for those honda parts.

If you will be running 11's, or as people have stated ~400hp, you will probably need to change your rubber rear subframe bushings out to solid or at least urathane bushings. Especially if you will be trying to launch from a stand still in drag racing. Like boostsfed said, you can't get there by simply upgrading the turbo. There are a lot of other behind the scenes upgrades that need to be incorporated as well.

And when Sil240 says stay away from Uncle Ben, he's not really your uncle.

yeah 400whp will GARENTEE 11's to even a decently ****ty driver.. cutting 2-2.2 60's. Now for a scaping 11, around 330-350whp, will get you an 11.8~9 that of course is cutting a 1.6-1.7 60 ft.. a few guys with 25 swaps and DR's are 1/4 of a second from hitting 11's with the standard turbo...

Cant say im one of them.... need some softer suspension....

This post, like many others recently, is rediculous and a waste of time to reply to.

But since im at work and have plenty of time to waste. . .

There are alot of turbos that will make you run 11's, but you also need to think about how much your car weighs and what kind of tire, suspension and gear setup you need. all the whp in the world dosent mean anything if your rear end isnt geared properly or it dosent get traction.

Im working on a stock turboed 11.999 pass, guess well see if it can happen when the track opens up in the spring.

Well, i dont know about upgrade... The compressor is smaller, and the exhuast housing is larger and runs out of its efficiency range at around 15 psi. Not worth the trouble imo.
