all was well til my used turbo purchase fell through. I'm putting together a 1835 with CB 044 heads and a mild cam, I have a Weber 45 DCOE to install, what turbo would you all suggest since the Rajay B25 purchase fell through.

I've got a 1915 with Weber 45mm sidedraft. I'm running a Garrett T3 center section with the compressor wheel cut down 10%, along with a Nissan 300ZX compressor side & a SAAB turbine housing. This turbo uses an interal "trap door" waste gate, which you may or maynot want. It starts making boost at 2500 rpm & pulls to 6000. Talk to folks at Turbocity, CB Performance or any number of turbo rebuilders around. A T3 may be a little too big for your engine, a T2 might be better.

You might look for a 2.0 turbo Eclipse or Eagle Talon in the junk yard.

I to have a 1915cc but with a rayjay turbo. I'm only 15 and I'm running 12's on the 1/4mi. My best time is a 12.35 @ 107.8mi.
My car only gives out 250ponies. Well my question is how can I gt more horsepower.
Thanks-
Gabe
