I'm not a turbo guru by any means, but I'm learning.I want to build a new engine for the 740 I auto cross. I would assume I'm looking for around 300+ hp. Set up will be:
16v head
stock cams
RSI Pistons and h-beams
RSI 16v stainless steel exhaust header
Sheet metal intake from Nathan
Electronic Boost Controller
Aftermarket Engine and spark (undecided as of yet)
More important than max HP, I need a turbo that will spool quickly for short auto cross courses..Lower rpm the better. I don't think I'll need any more than 15-20 psi of boost
What turbo would be a good fit for this. I'm not looking for cheapest ok. I'm willing to pony up for ball bearing turbo to get quick spool if needed. So what say ye turbo gurus?
There was a Rx7 out there with a huge turbo that was useless. It was a dog (lag) until just before he had to brake, then all hell would break loose. I want to avoid that. I need boost down low.
