Hey I finally got my turbo kit..Not installed yet. I'm very new to turbo this would be my first turbo ever. Garrett Turbo 50 trim T3/T4 I don't know much about this turbo. But i want to be aroudn 320WHP with increase in mid range. Is there anything i should know prior to installation? I saw a bunch of people using inline pro 3mm headgasket. What psi would i be looking at to reach 320WHP on stock compression? This is also my daily driver so i need reliability..Reliability > Performance..Any suggestions/Tips?


This is my kit:
Garrett Turbo 50 trim T3/T4
FMIC
Rev hard turbo manifold
Turbosmart 38MM wastegate
Walbro 255 fuel pump
precision 680 CC injectors
Greddy E-Manage ultimate

Missing anything? things to look out for? i dont know..IMA Newbie to turbo!

 

I just made 320whp with about 8lbs of boost using an inline pro kit with a 5965r turbo. That turbo is between a gt30 and gt35 so I hear. The car drives great, power delivery is very similar to stock meaning I don't get the hard kick when boost kicks in but has a gradual rise in power. As far as parts, you may need injector clips and fuel rail adaptor? I did relocate my oil filter so that is an option. A good clutch is recommend as well. Also for the ultimate find a very knowledgeable tuner. Someone who will tune the car over several days to compensate for the factory fuel trims. Or do what I did and get a aem ems

 

Blow-off valve
Downpipe
Spark plugs

 

Money.

 

 

Do you think i can reach those numbers with 8 psi of boost as well?

 

I would say you should be able to reach those numbers if your turbo is similar to mine. I could probably make more power if I changed out my stock exhaust and my tuner tuned my car very conservatively.
