Too big of a turbo and will have killer lag on a 2.2 for 250whp. Look for a turbo that maxes out a little higher than that. It will spool ALOT faster.
If your looking for that power wise, save some money and just get the set-up from a Saab 9-3.

still have the alt pulley on there but i would guess it does little if anything.
as far as power goes, I havent been at those numbers in FOREVER haha. Lasty dyno I was at 180whp 164wtq and that was with the old motor, old header (limited top end power as it was designed for low end...where i dont have any power :P), and an afr tuned around 11
Got all that fixed and she runs GREAT but havent put her back on the dyno yet, might do so tomorrow while Im hanging with some friends at the dyno shop though.

the mrz crank pulley SUCKS! had one that now has a 1/4" groove in it from bad manufacturing and it dumped all the metal shavings into the engine...grrrr! that was the old motor though haha

just curious because I am going to be ordering a tune soon, is this something that Vince can fix without a dyno, or am i going to be that rich as well? Just wondering if you might have an answer to that one, since you have been tuned by Vince before.

Then you can tell Vince where you're sitting and where you'd like to be sitting.
