hi folks,i'm from germany, sorry for my bad english!

certainly i mod my ca18det with pauter rods, cp pistons (83,5mm), 444cc injectors, xs power intercooler and 3" exhaust.

now i have to decide which turbo i will take.

i'm not sure, i'm looking for about 400 engine hp.

i want to drift and dragrace about 12sec times with slicks.

my favorit now is the gt2871r .64 (743347- 1)

or is the

gt2876r .64 maybe better for me (705330 - 1)?

have anybody here some experience with this combination?

when they starting to spool?

does it make sense to change the camshafts?

what throttle body can you suggest?

hope you can understand my english and can help me.

I belive that GT2871R w/ .64 Exhaust turbine housing and a 52 compressor trim will yeld 400 engine horsepower on a CA18DET. Not alone of course, you need other upgrades too, to make it work. Good for drifting because of wide power band. 4-8K RPM-ishDyno test on a CA18DET w/GT2871R with the .86 exaust turine housing. not sure about the compressor trim though.
