There are so many setups. Just search. I dont have the energy to type it. I figured you at least had a budget.
Anything around a 35r should be all you need to reach your goal. An externally gated setup with even a log style manifold can reach 450 500... But thats pushing those shitty parts to the limits.
You will find it alot less frustrating if you get a tubular manifold and a "good" turbo with good piping and tial components. It sucks to have to tear it apart and replace cheap pieces 1 by 1 and buy the more expensive parts anyway. my .02
Engine management and fuel are another ball game.
DSM link and 1000's with a new 255, maybe 2...
reguardless, its expensive.
Search around and educate yourself with the setups people are already running and making around what you want.
good luck
Great advice. Ill also add dont go cheap. u want a reliable car u need to get good parts not ebay brand stuff.
You should probably go ahead and build the bottom end. If you have high mileage. Also homie above me set it clear. I cant tell you how many people are trying to go the cheap route and us shops end up giving them info in the first place and they dont listen. Till they do it the cheap way with ebay parts. THEN bring the car to us and tell us to do what we said in the begining. Just think about it. Power-Powerband-Turbo-Fuel-Efficiency.
Big difference if you want a fully built inc dyno queen or you want a car that performs for a purpose. Good luck and do your research. As a few shops, or some people with proven setups. INFORMATION IS FREE.
