hey guys i have vp bt1 with a vp clubby 200kw engine, 3:46 diff gears
i want to turbo it just wondering what sort of turbo is best and the rest of the gear any help would be appreciated
Best to look up what other people have done but most people just go a blower, the Yella Terra ones look sick with a snout and pulley in an engine bay, either that or a nitros set up.
Ive seen a few Turbo 5L VN-VPs. There was a red VP 5L (or it couldve been the white one) with a GT35/40 and that was pushing around the 340rwkw mark if i remember.
They also look sick with a big single hanging off the side of them!
yeah itd be an absolute tyre fryer and could work alright so long as u dont wanna rev it too hard. Thats a really small housing for a engine like the holden 5ltr v8, id personally go a 1.06 for a bit more headroom uptop, itd still spool the same too id think.
thanx for your commments guys, got some cash coming my way soon so it will go into the making very soon , will be on the look out for turbo and the rest so if ya here anything please let us know
JD customs has an exhaust manifold setup, and it uses factory headers with a cross over pipe - really cheap way of doing it but it works sweet. I have a GT42 for u.. lol - $1600 brand new. You'll make 330rwkw without trying.
wouldnt happen to know what the manifolds are going for? lol how do ya reckon my bottom end would go standard with the turbo? i just really want it to be a fun car to drive and a decent tyre fryer lol
thanx for the advice guys but have changed my mind lol gonna put a ls1 in it got the engine and gearbox out of a vy ss with low ks just gotta get all the rest engine mounts, etc
