I am planning out my TII's build up as I am picking up my poor babe tommorow afternoon. It was suggested that a TO4B would easily make the 350-400hp that I am going to want out of my S5 TII. But I can't seem to find it. If any of you know where I can look for them it would be great. I have tried ebay, google and some other net sources but i can't find on that I need. He also said that a 60-1 would be good. But again I don't know where to buy them I can only find them in pics and forums. :/

First of all to address an important issue. I am not leaving the N/a scene at all. I am probably going to enjoy the N/a more because i will not drive the TII much. Probably one or two days of the week to go show up the ricers and domestics at the track locally. The N/a is probably going to be my Suspension ***** getting the badass handling upgrades and all that. If I get my beater car fixed again I will probably bridge my engine on the Sport and run it at the autoX or rally it a bit. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png





Second I am shooting for 350-400hp with reliable running for the engine and turbo. I don't want to push a small turbo too much to make the power cheaply I dont like down time after the car is working. I want the Snail to have enough to make that power easily or moderatly taxing its ability.



I checked out cheap turbo before asking but I didn't see the B i saw a TO4S I think. Would that still be the same turbo? I am still green on the TII scene and need a little guidance. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif

Santiago

To4S is larger. Made to run around 15-20psi. Can support 460RWHP.

Santiago you may want to look for a 60-1 turbo. It gives me a reliable 330 rwhp at only 10psi non-port engine and still room for improvement. At 10psi the turbo is not even yet at its peak efficiency. Efficiency is the key for reliable power. THis turbo is a very popular with rotaries, specially ported. cheapturbo.com seems to have good prices.

and they have excellent service and tech support. ken is by far one of the easiet vendors i have dealt with, and is very knowledgeable. i've ordered a wastegate and a turbo from cheapturbo.com and have been very pleased with both transactions.

Ah hmm I will look into it. Do you all have any info on these two snails? I want to read up as much as I can on them. I just don't know where to look for the info other than cheapturbo.
