The more I research turbos, the more confused I get.
So far I know of 3 major players (lovefab, SOS and Angus). Are there any other significant players I should look into?
Some basic questions:
1. Which is better Journal or ball bearing (I thought BB would be better, but Ive heard some people actually say the opposite)
2. What size turbo is suggested for single and twin turbo config to acheive the following goals
a. ability to get UP TO 500-600HP someday
b. Normally used to get 400-450HP
c. As little lag as possible
d. Safe on stock 3.2L engine
e. Street use
f. I still want to look as close to stock as possible, targa storage under engine hatch and most of trunk space still available
g. I don't want/need to be the fastest NSX out there, I just want to have an NSX and not compromise on speed and stock appearance
3. Is Meth Injection safe? Do you suggest it?
4. What is a safe boost PSI range for a stock 3.2L engine?
I love my NSX, but I have to admit that when I test drove the GTR I was disappointed when I got back in the NSX. My wife actually wanted me to ditch the NSX and get the Nissan... but I love my NSX!
I would like a GTR killer.. and I figure since they have 485HP now and will have 535 in 2012 model that 500HP would KILL the GTR given our lighter weight. Although AWD is better for 0-60.
There is information all over the place here on prime, but its hard to get all the answers in one place.. Thats why I started this thread. Your advice is greatly appreciated!
