I WAS LOOKING AT GOING WITH A T72 SET UP IN MY FD. QUESTION IS WHAT KIND OF POWER AM I LOOKING AT IF PROPERLY TUNED. DOESNT LOOK LIKE MANY PEOPLE ARE USING THIS TURBO.

 

SOME ONE HAS GOT TO BE USING THIS TURBO. IT CANT BE THAT BAD.

 

IS IT A FCKED UP TURBO OR FCKED UP QUESTION.

 

Give Turbonetics a call or e-mail them. They will be able to tell you what it will be like.

But from the compressor map, looks like 450bhp @15 psi or so.

 

Try taking off the caps lock. We are also going to need ALOT more info on you setup before providing a estimate. Ie- port, ign, fuel, psi, TUNER OF CHOICE(the biggest difference)

 

did you ever consider that the turbo was to big for a street car(lag wise)? These questions are asked every 8-10 threads. Theres a search button that will answer alot of your questions. Rotarynut, what mods do you have right now if you dont mine me asking?

 

my mods are:
large streetport engine, atkins 2mm 2 peice seals,pinned, hardened stationary gears, 3 window bearings, high volume oil pump, regulator and rel. valve, act extreme clutch,comp fuel pump, 850 primary's 1600 sec., unorthodox pulley's, 3 1/2 dp, mp, n1 dual. car is 93 touring. there is nothing is search area on this turbo that helpful. i hope this info is helpful for you guru's.
THANKS.

 

i dont mean to be an *******, just want whats best for the 7.

 

a t72 is way too big for a street car. a friend had a t70 and that was pushing it. i would go bigger than a t70.

 

does that mean that a t70 is larger than a t78?

 

oh, i forgot to mention i will be trying the e-11 v.2

 

a mitsu(greddy) t78 is smaller than the t-70 or t-72 you are referring to. garrett and turbonetics refer to the size of the turbo as greddy just throws a number out there. try to find pics of greddy's t88 compared to the real t-88.

 

Depending on boost and horsepower power levels you're seeking the T-72 is a pretty large turbo for street use. Pretty much I would not use anything larger than a T-66 for street use and that's pusing it to low 20's psi wise! The 60,62,63-1 turbos are better suited for pump gas use. Also in my opinion any turbo larger than a T-66 should not be used with anything smaller than a Q-trim turbine wheel.
As for what a T-72 is capable of I've made 648 rwhp at 25 psi on my setup.

 

well if it is too large for the street, will i be able to get 500+ hp out of a 60 to 1 with my current mods and proper tuning.

 

T66 is big for the rotary (ok, most) What is goal for the car? Street, Strip, Road Course, Auto-X? 60-1 is going to be hard pressed to make 500Hp. I think you can get close, but won't go beyond.

 

I am running the T-72 on My car. Large street port on My car and the T-72 is a bit big for the steet but I dont think it is to big. I can drive the streets fine with a bit of lag. Anything belowe 4500 and You dont have much power but tap Your clutch and hang on as it pulls very hard to 9000. I think it would fit between a Gredy T-78 and T-88 for size.

 

good answer cris. Haven't seen you for a while. Probably because I haven't been around. My brother just got a 3rd gen and will be going with a t-70. I think the t72 is too big on a fd for street use. The t70 is the most that I would use. But like everyone has been saying, its a bit on the laggy side.

 

Whoa, I saw you car on the NoPistons member's ride page.(Sub Zero)
