i am pretty sure at that price it does not exist, piece your own kit together for the best results but it will be more expensive most likly

You could get a kit that would get you 400 hp for around that price. But then you still need to buy a front mount, bigger injectors, and some type of fuel computer. Anything over 400 hp and you need to start building up your internals, which will put you way over your price.

You can't do it under 3500. You would need new pistons, turbo, computer, transmission, clutch, headgasket, injectors, rods, everything, intercooler. Stuff like that adds up really quick, do you have 15000 dollars?

are you kidding??? holy shiznit, i wish i could find something like that...hehe. ya, probably 400+ for that. i have that much for about a lil over 2000, BUT i did a lot of custom fabrication instead of buying a prefab, more $$$ kit. it still looks badass though.

i've got a motor that is being built. i'm just wanting a turbo and manifold for $3500. i'm not worried about fuel control either. i've got a lead on 72lbs injectors. i did find the greddy t78 kit. but i'm not sure if that kit is going to be too big for my needs.shaun

Get a custom manifold made and pick your own turbo. That's your best bet.

A T88 will get you to 750+ so a T78 might be what your looking for.

The do custom work...build custom manifolds, fuel rails, custom turbo's to meet specific HP ranges, Sell prebuilt SR motors for specific HP #'s, build motors, etc etc...

pretty much anything and everything.

500-600HP@4500-8000RPM isn't exactly streetable unless you like to launch the car at every stop sign and light.

yeah its not going to be real streetable. thats a good thing since the car weighs about 2000 lbs and has no dash. it doesn't have heat either. so i wasn't really planning on street driving....although maybe once in a while to make some money! i'm shooting for low 10's high 9's. its a drag car.i have my k3t that i'm happy with for the street.shaun

2,000lbs? that's impressive, especially since when you gut one (dash included) you only get the car down to like 2500lbs)

What all did you have to pull out to get that kind of number?

2000, most likely an exageration, unless floorboards, and trunks have started to been cut out....which wouldnt meet any regualtions...

2500 is an underestimation in my opinion though paul for totally stripped...I weighed in at the last event at 2514, with dash, seat, 1/2 sound deadening material, helmet....i'd say now its about 2485 from what i've done since, and i only had 2 lightweight rims on the car, no carbon fiber hood, or fiberglass....so i think it can be brought down to 2400 without the dash, and weightsaving parts...

the whole interior and all the tar **** that they use to keep it quite was under 150lbs when we took it out (that includes the back seat not the fronts) We put it all on a scale as it came out of the car.When we find out what the dash weighs I'll let you know.

I don't think a sr20det will ever see 500whp witha T67. The highest hp t67 i've seen was a fully built surbaru stroked to 2.5ltr running 22psi and made 522 flywheel hp (engine dyno). That turbo is better suited for poeple trying to reach the 400 whp mark. The Aussies and the Japanese run 12's with that turbo. For the kind of numbers he wants, he'll need something larger like a T78 (staying with Greddy here) or T88.

If he had a t67 it would be capable of alot more boost then 22 psi. Ive seen ball bearing t28's that hit max efficency at like 21 psi. I think he could put down that much hp easy with that. Or you could be like jun, and get a turbonetics t88 and make 700 hp. :)

bp2ooo, i have no doubt that a T67 will stay in its efficiency range past 22psi.

I do doubt, however, that a SR20det will see 500-600 whp with that turbo (no bottle of course) unless its stroked or can rev well past 7k rpm. The Jun Hyper Lemon Evo V made 571hp and 554 ft lbs on a T67 (if you look it up, it will be called a TD06SH-25G; it's same as a t67). That motor was fully built and stroked though. For those kinds of numbers, there's really no telling what will be needed to take him there. Maybe he is stroking the motor...maybe he's putting on solid 'lifters' and plans on a 14000rpm redline. Who knows. All I know is that if I were going for those kinds of numbers, I would select something larger than a T67...prolly a T78 (again, staying in Greddy) but with a smaller exhaust housing (the Jun car used the largest exhaust housing availabe which means it's probably a really laggy turbo on top of everything). That or just buy an RB25.:)

Two words: Big turbo. Did i say big? Sorry, I meant huge. People running t67 and bigger rarely see those results. Not that they couldn't, but after spending what they have spent, they don't want to risk it all at the amount of boost required for that kind of power. You would need to rebuild your internals ($1000), get huge injectors, metal head gasket, RAS, valvesprings (those would be about another $1000) Thenyou would need the turbo itself, for about $2-4k depending on what. And you still haven't even addressed fuel supply yet. You would need management and a N1 skyline pump. Cams and head work wouldn't hurt either. So, you are way over your bidget and still havn't even sddressed the cost of labor yet, which would be in the thousands. But here's the more important issue: why do you want so much power? Sure it would be amazing, but its not necessarily so much about how much power, but where the power is. With that kind of setup, your lag would be ridiculous and boost would probably come on at about 5k RPM. Then you woulkd need to spend thousands trying to get all that power to the ground. You would need a monster clutch, probably not very streetable, and a strong custom driveshaft. Even then I bet you would have traction probalems. And you spent about $25k...:rolleyes

I dont... I'll probably stay with a stock motor and turbo with bolt ons for at least 2 years. Daily driven.

I have seen pictures of jun's silvia with a t88 on it. It had a turbonetics t88 sticker on it, and i could sware i have seen dynos with it putting down just over 700 hp. i will try to find some, but i could be wrong.
