yes... i know i'm not that knowledgeable. I more or less stated that in the title. I got stuck.. i asked for help... my apologies for apparently getting on your nerves. If noobs annoy you so much, maybe you should have read the title first and just not entered this thread. If you would like to help me out, help me out If not, save your effort on calling me a noob and saying how pathetic I am for not being knowledgeable and go someplace else. thanks for reading... ;) |

I made it pretty obvious that i HAD done a decent amount of research. And yes, i have read the stickies. and they have PLENTY of information on how turbos work and how to put one together They leave somebody plenty capable of putting a turbo kit together and having no idea what output to expect. I am not dissing on the write up. It was a good write up with good information. But It did not answer all of my questions therefore, here i am, asking for the answers to my question. and some are helping, Thanks |

Now figure what horsepower rating you want from the set up, multiply that by your scaling factor (cfm/hp) and you'll get a rough estimate of the required amount of air to meet your goal. Then find a turbo who's efficiency island works correctly in the area that you need, i.e. not surging at your pressure level nor becoming a restriction. Manifold and other ---- doesn't matter in particular unless you're going for OMG JDM HOSPOWAH. A log on the street is fine. LOG CRX HHH DIAF. |

Maybe somebody should make a write up on "how to achieve you goals" with that info included and you can avoid "idiot noobs" like me in the future. |
