Yeah Go big!
Its an MP90 from a mustang the turbo is an 80mm Y2K ballbearing from Turbonetics. The system uses the blower for low end (5psi available @ idle!) and the big turbo for top-end and flow. When the turbo makes boost, it pushes the SC's internal bypass valve open and blows through it, lessening the parasitic effect on the top-end.

:peace:

a quick search has me to believe your current HP is over what most upgraded turbos are good for. so you may have fewer options than you think.

Well after my conversation with Dave I was talking about HX35 which would open up the exhuast side to a 12cm2 opening and allow it to breathe better but also stil giving him good boost.

As you increase exhaust housing the lag increases and so does smoke.

Thank you again for the chat .

Back on topic and no more foolery .

I can get 44-45 psi out of my turbo now but it is not good and will not handle it for a long burst . It is rated for 32psi ... I Like the one Bob found ... that is the ticket .

thanks. I can find just about anything.

I would start with a call to those people and tell them your specs. just the detail of their description says to me they know their stuff.
