Im new here so if this has already been answered sorry but i have a stg 2 srt and im lookin for a turbo upgrade kit that'll give me a the best bang for my buck

 

I know a couple people running a 50trim or a SSTon the stage 2 setup. Not sure exactly how much more power they have over the standard S2, but they are over 300whp. If you are looking for a whole replacement kit, AGP now has the Stage Three Delta that has had a lot of buzz recently. Other than that you can piece together a 50trim 'kit' for around a grand or so if you know where to look....

 

yeah ive looked at the agp delta ones, have you heard of anyone runnin a t3/t4 on one? cuz I have a turbonetics one sittin in my prelude and I was thinkin about swappin it in to the srt

 

a t3/t4 tells us nothing more than what flange is on it. what are the specs on the turbo? we use reverse-flow turbos too, so remember that when choosing a turbo.

and just my opinion - but if you're going for a turbo upgrade, money shouldn't be the concern. "cheap" and "fast" do not ever belong in the same sentence, it's just asking for a disaster.

 

alright well I wasnt sayin im gonna get like a 100 dollar ebay turbo im just lookin for the best upgrade kit thats reasonably priced around the 2000 dollar range im lookin to hit some where around the 350 hp mark

 

S&P has the Stage 3 add-on kit w/ tial wheel for $2800. I bet you could find the steel wheel S3 for cheaper, and if you went the route of the toybox instead of the toys bezel you would save even more money. This would land you close to 350whp and also utilize some of the S2 components you already have. Then sell the S2 pcm & WGA and you should be into it for $2k!

 

I would go with the Stage 3 upgrade with the steelwheel, then you can get the upgraded wheel, I am having a 51 lbs wheel installed right now, with a few other things. I will be getting it back on Thursday.

The Stage 3 is a good turbo, spool is good. Driveability is good. Have beat a few 50 trims, not really impressed with them.

Just my 2 cents

 

let me know what kinda numbers you get, idk if this is still out there but i saw a stock td04 turbo that was hollowed and had a bigger wheel anybody know about these?

 

it's called a super stocker. you can get something like 325 out of them. but remember - numbers are just that.....numbers. they really don't mean much. i've seen a 500hp car not be able to break out of the 13's and a 300hp car run 11's. there's more to a car than a number.....

 

That 325 on the Super Stocker is pushing it to it's limit though. For the same amount of $ you would spend getting there you can go a different route with an actual bigger turbo and get better numbers. But as PSI chick said, they are just numbers.....
