Hey guys i need some hlep on going single turbo. I have t66 turbo and i'm sending my motor out to rebuilt and ported. The car is stock, what kind of set up do in need i looking to push around 500hp

 

you need to do a search on here because this has been beat to death. people are not going to respond because theres tons of info on it.

 

Ecu, fuel, fuel pump, upgrade ic and exhaust, get a tune, clutch, think you might need a bigger turbo and all of the turbo parts to make that goal

 

Look for some of my posts, I spent all winter/spring doing research and building my car for 500whp. It's getting the tune this week, so I have yet to see if I actually achieved it, but I figure responding to you would be like good karma haha, so here you go.

Fuel -
----1600cc secondary injectors
----something bigger than stock primaries ( I have 720s)
----FPR
----better fuel pump(s) - either 2 walbros, 2 densos, or something big like I got Aeromotive Tsunami mounted in tank.

Turbo -
----You may need a bigger turbo - I have a Greddy T78, and its been proven to make over 500, but some people argue that its near the limit on most setups, so a T66 may not get you there. (I haven't looked into it though, so maybe someone has done it before)
----Quality intercooler, wastegate, BOV, boost controller, etc.

ECU -
----quality stand alone - with an amazing tune

Exhaust -
----3" at least, and very non-restrictive, this can become the limiting factor easily at this level.

Meth Injection system -
----If you are on pump gas - you need this to be safe. 500 on pump has been achieved without it, but the chances of your engine lasting are drastically reduced. You should have:
----progressive controller (raises flow rate as boost increases)
----Surflo meth pump (the 150 will be fine, but some guys use the 220) - Alkycontrol doctors these up a little bit, so they would be a good source to go to
----Nozzles to support 1200ml/min worth of flow at max boost (I have 625 X 2)

Drivetrain -
----A good one haha (6 puck sprung is usually the norm if you plan on driving on the street)
----A lightweight flywheel will help keep your numbers high
----PPF and differential may take a beating with that much hp, so you may want to upgrade (not always necessary though)
----You should def have your engine balanced during the rebuild too.

I probably missed a few things but that should get you started haha. Have fun spending lots of money.

 

No comments yet? Does that mean I finally know what I'm talking about? haha.

 

im also going single. if anyone has some parts for sale for the single setup it would be nice to save some loot

 

I feel like the OP just pulled that 500 number out of the sky without even thinking about what could be involved
