Just wondered if my 2.2 would be able to spool this well. I have 2.2 .030 over crank was turned .10, and I used to have a super 60, but it has apperently went to the turbo yard in the sky: Will I need my head to be highly ported to make the cfm needed to spool it very quickly. Thanks in advance.(http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2433210361

Just because I want some pity from you all I bought my car last Thanksgiving, it took a crap the next day that I got it home. It has been sitting waiting for the money to rebuild the engine and turbo. I finally have the money together in June and have been waiting for my turn at the engine shop. So to sum it all up I have had this car for almost a year and driven it 2 times. Can you believe it two times!!!.

And now no one will tell me if this turbo would be a good choice for me come on. Tell me PLEASE I beg you a simple yes or no will suffice.

Don't go with that turbo in a street daytona...If you really want a good street turbo that will give you plenty of mid-top end power, look into the turbo I have or that many people like ken adler, and mike marra run. And *DO NOT* go cheap when it comes to a turbo. You may spend 300-500 for that one and think you got a deal. But do you know who rebuilt it?? Seeing as I had the WORST experience with rebuilt turbos I will ALWAYS buy brand new from turbonetics. I had a turbo that blew 3 separate times in 100 miles each, I lost around 400-600 dollars on shipping costs, oil changes, headgasket changes, headbolts, and a perfectly good turbo core.

To further help you....What do daytonas weigh, like 3k+ lbs?? That turbo will be a bitch to spool on the street, not to mention I think you need a custom header to fit that turbo on your car as the compressor housing hits the cylinder head.

The popular turbo these days seems to be the stock compressor housing with a big to4b or e wheel stuffed into it, complemented by the stock or stage 2 turbine wheel in the .63 A/R housing. Many seem to like the 50 trim, I picked the 46 trim pretty much because it was the smallest wheel size in the to4e family.

thanks again.

which one of these would you recommend?http://www.turboneticsinc.com/turboc...html:confused:

if your looking for a nice upgraded turbo don't go with that one. it still has the stock .48 exhaust housing, you want something with the .63, the same one that was on your super 60.

and that turbo does NOT need a custom header. I have the same compressor housing on my car and trust me it fits fine, although i have a 48trim turbine compared to that 57. that would be a quite large turbo if it had the .63 exhaust housing, the .48 sticks out like a sore thumb in that package.

Any help would be appretiated(sp?) as my cars engine may finally get done by the end of the week!!

a good turbo would be one with a .63 exhaust housing, a stage 2 wheel (possibly stage 1) and a t4 compressor with a 48 or 50 trim wheel.

your best bet would be to call up one of the vendors and tell them exactly what the aplication will be for the turbo and they will give you an expert opinion.

I think my turbo was 720 dollars but it did not come with a swingvalve. You can just use the one on your existing turbo.
