Thanks. On the old setup in this vid, it pulled 155psi across the board. The new 600+hp motor pulls 175psi.

You were telling me to run 6-8 PSI, he's running 175?!!? how is that possible l0l
Those are compression test numbers...

read the comment he is replying to...

What are some sites, I can find prices for the SOHC t25 turbo, and air intakes.
What is your best suggestion as for brand of turbo and intake??

Do you have any good sites that sell them I can look at.

We just had to do it! Stock Sleeves (no blockguard, etc), ported D16Y8 head, 75mm Vitara pistons, FJT custom length rods. 609whp/404tq @ 30psi -

that is what he says where did you get 175psi there aint no damn car in the world with that much boost....
and also this is a built car by pro's and fully tuned this is a drag car......

for info on turbo's google it read its the best way to learn not for somebody to keep giving answers
we also have threads already on stuff like this...
first get a car then when you have the $$ for the build then go from there..

You don't get an intake and a turbo. With a turbo you have charge piping and and intercooler, running from the turbo to the intake manifold. Then you put a filter on the intake.

I really think you need to learn what you're doing before you go looking at buying. With your knowledge of turbos you'd be better off with a full GReddy or Edelbrock kit, and then getting it tuned.

If you read the comments right under the video, someone asks him about the compression test results and he replies.
