"18-20" isn't what I'd call medium range.
It's the outside edge of pump gas.
So are you going to run race gas or supplemental injection?

race gas.
so ted what do you think i should be boosting at

for fuel besides a fpr and new fuel pump i was planning on either 1000 or 1600cc secondaries. but am not sure about the primaries or if i should leave them stock. the engine will be bridge ported. so any ideas guys i was also planning on running a haltec e6x standalone. who has this and whats ur opinions?

What reason do you have to run 18-20 PSI?

Why not run the GT35R at 13-15 PSI instead and make 350HP? Then you could run pump gas and not worry about high boost issues...

You don't need a bridge port to make 350HP. A port like that is wasted on such a small turbo.

IMO if you are looking to race this car, then the most important thing is to get a good manifold (stainless divided) and ball bearing turbo for the best response, especially if you combine that with a street port. Because you can do 350 easy on stock ports with a stage 4 hybrid or a cheap undivided HKS cast manifold and a 60-1 turbo, but they simply will not have the response you are looking for.

you are likely looking at a GT35R kit from A-spec or Turblown.
