    then why do you want a turbo fwd car? I believe you are after something like drifterextremes setup. In which case there is no reason for a built motor, especially if you are on a tight budget... Seems like you have no problem dishing out 250-350 for rods but you cant spend more than 50 bucks for a turbo?

    whats wrong with a turbo fwd car for what he wants? Traction problems? Almost any other application is just going to run into diff problems and costly clutch swaps with that power to get even close to what hes looking for.

    He spent money where money should be spent, on the motor. Those rods can be had for 220 dollars. More than likely itll handle power alot better over time then matts 4 door . So he spent an extra 400 dollars on his rebuild for some extra insurance, sounds like a good idea to me.

    And i think if his power goals are rreally as low as he says than the 14b or 16g turbo would be perfect for him, no reason to knock tried and true 200-300 horsepower turbos even if they arent super stupid expensive.

      whats kinda hp am i looking at with the 20g? And still wondering what the pvc squad is...

      supposedly a large 20g is supposed to be good for 400+ might be a tad bit laggy for what your looking for, a 16g would be an awesome budget turbo. But i think the 20g is an awesome turbo

              Woaaa dont get all defensive the only reason why you are involved at all with anything i said was becuase i fucking agreed with you. I was saying that for other people like travis who seemed confused by the idea of someone using a 50 trim and making more power than 270hp.

              But im glad that you also know what i know, and that you feel the need to throw around dimensions and basic math i already knew about your useless fucking turbo. Any one can use google and tell you your in./ex. Diameters, congrats

              stop trying to sound so smart by telling people the small about about basic shit that you know

              You were calling me out, insinuating I was using trim to differentiate the size of turbos...... as bigger or smaller

              I only clearly pointed out that different turbos use different characteristics to name them........... and that in this case it was trim that was used

              Obviously I looked up the wheel specs of both to illustrate my point....

              Since you are so well endowed with the understanding of turbo dynamics will you please help me size the optimum turbo for my setup???........ please master

                    the 20g will not be good for his setup right now as i beleave it has a tdo6 compressor wheel and housing? correct me if i'm wrong zac. 1 full size up from the 14b which uses the tdo5 housing, that with the 1 step up turbine wheel and a 10cm turbine housing vs the normal 6 or 7cm turbine housing would slow spool-up, conciderabley.

                    again with a built bottom end he is capable of running higher boost to compensate for the low compression.

                    so i don't see how this is a bad set up. he has room to upgrade and it will be plenty fun at the 200-240 whp range with a nice torque curve.

                                  at no point did i call you out, in fact i dont even acknowledge you on this website. Its you that assumes everyone is calling you out because you think you know everything.

                                  I made a comment on what trim is because a previous comment was made

                                  and i did not want certain people to think that just because they have a "50 trim" they are gonna max out their turbo at 300 hp. See how that makes sense?

                                  Reread the shit that was said before even trying to throw your opinion around again becuase all it does is make you sound like a douche with "something to prove" to the online community.
