Hi,
Does anyone know the max bhp of this turbo? :dunno: I am doing a big engine build but I'm afraid I'll be disappoined with the bhp figure beacuse the turbo will max out. :cry:
:subaru:
 
320 is the max I think you can safely get out of it. Not 100% sure though.

Yeah that seems to be the max on them.
 
Thanks lads. Not what I wanted to hear :cry: but will have to do for the moment. :roll:

@ Damo, I saw that you had one for sale there before. Do you mind me asking what you got for it? :ponder:
 
It was a mates, I cant remember what he got for it. If your puting that kind of money into the engine ( if I have the right person ) id be looking at one of the TDs. 20g for sale on Scoobynet I think. Also with your steel build your gonna most likely run high boost and IHI Turbos dont really handle it well.

yes, they are designed for 280. But you can push 320 out of them before they become inefficient. Someone correct me if Im wrong.
 
I know one guy who has it at around 320 but most do seem to be 280 290ish.
 
Thanks for all the replys lads. :thumbsup:
I think it will have to do for the moment due to my budget wearing very thin... And thats before I even pay the lads @ East Coast Customs to do the build. :doh: I'm also getting the gear box totaly recond so hopefully I have a few numbers on the lotto!!! :pray:
