I have the engine being built at the moment. I would like 230ish Kw on pump fuel.

What turbo should I be buying?

I was looking at getting the 68HTA from FP as it has made 250 odd Kw on the EVO III in Perth but that was on BP 98 + Toluene + 106 Race fuel.

Then I looked at the TD062gSL2 from GT Pumps. It was making 235 on BP 100.

I have no interest in running race fuel. Recommendations and also set my expectations.

I have a forged bottom end. Cams and a ECU with EVO IX injectors.

Edit : Just had a chat with ATP and they are also recommending a TD0620GSL
 
Personally I don't think that the 68hta will have enough flow for a 2.3 build.
The TD06 would be a better option, are you looking for a stock appearing turbo?
 
yeh i have a 2.3 an am unsure what turbo to get either 68hta would be too small i want something that will bolt on and support 260kw's
 
I'll have some BP98 figures on that 68 hta for you within 1 week or so :) Got the wideband talking to the Haltech.. I have a hillclimb in 8 days so that's my deadline!!
 
Thought I would update this for those who may find it using the search button

Tuned by me, 100% BP98 on a mild tune (let's call me an amateur as this is the first car I've tuned)


Here is the graph .. From my research I'm certainly running much less timing than an E3 out of the box (maybe a bit more in the lowrange) and about the same as provided in a VR4 base tune from Haltech :)

Boost is 22.8psi peak dropping steadily to 19 psi (trying to rectify)

i made 211kwatw on 21psi on a really safe tune motec,tdo5/20g eboost and exhaust. i sent a message to billet turbos this week as i know they can fit there billet cartridge so i will prob get them to give it the tdo6/25g treatment should spool up good too. still waiting to hear back from them atleast then i dont have to change manifolds

its better if you just call Mark at Mr Turbo thats where he makes the turbos iv had him make me 5 so far and have all been awsome and make big power one went 470hp atw and the other 665hp atw 2.3L and a 2L and my 2.3L had full boost at 3900
 
yeh i got one of his 800hp t66 on my vl spools up way quicker then a 35/40 with a 1.06 rear and can make more power. i was goin to put it on my evo but it will only be good for drag not bitumen sprints
