Awesome build. Makes me miss my Maxi of that same green! With the tan interior it was lovely. Would’ve been better with a turbo haha excited for the last update

And i would much rather run a authentic journal bearing Garrett, borg warner, or turbonetics than a CXracing turbo, even a good used holset would be better and cheaper. To be honest i would not even consider a CXracing/godspeed turbo. Ballbearing turbos on the street really make no difference. Remember you get what you pay for, a Garrett's BB turbo cost +$1400 how did they make it for only $400? Just saying i have learned all this the hardway.

Something like this is what you need:
Borgwarner Airwerks S360 S300 83 75 88 A R Open Scroll Turbocharger | eBay

It will spool fast, has the ability to make big power, and it is a quality turbo with the CXracing turbo you are rolling the dice you may get a good turbo but most of the time your getting a shat turbo. You have to send it off to a place like gpopshop or some other turbo builder to get it to work properly(around $300-400) and at that point you spent more than just buying a good turbo from the start. Do it once do it right.

Nistune is the way to go, get a nice EBC aswell. Innovate now makes a 3 in 1 boost gauge and controller plus wideband which is quite useful. Also that BOV, HKS or Tial only, why dont want to hear your fast and the furious bov b1tch.
If you need to make 300-500whp on a hot street car the GT30 is perfect on 3.0L! A good GTX2867 is a good turbo for this purpose as well. You will be making boost starting at around 1500 and have full boost by 2800 rpm. So in the small motor you will have low end torque.
