I want to go turboed
#51
Ya they have seen bigger numbers but how big of a number does he want? I mean theres a redline with 5 or 600 to the wheels that is twincharged. A twincharge kit will net more torque then just a turbo will. If you deciede to do twincharge you need to make sure the turbo will flow more cfm's then the m62.

So do you really think that turbo will out spool a twincharge setup? Its really up to you dragonsfire what you want to do. My wife wants to do twincharge causes there are very few that have done it.

Your tranny will be fine on 8 PSI, depending on turbo. Breaking limit is 350 WTRQ which you won't be anywhere near on 8 PSI. I'd be more worried about internals, and go with a 2.4 manifold, it will hold a lot of boost.

no im not saying that haha but its cheaper to single turbo and less of a tuning headache and hes only looking for 350-400hp...why do u think not many people are twincharged? nobody has a perfect tuning ability for it like they can do with a single turbo...at least from what i have seen.

Internals he should be fine on. its us lucky 08 guys that are unsure of our rods

sleeves have been tested to 400 but of course this all has to due with good tuning and everything so i wouldnt trust going above probly 370-380 without sleeving even though some have done it

If you're gonna be able to tune it with no headaches or a very little headache, I'll do twincharge and you can tune me
If not then I'll just go with the zzp stg 3 kit, and sell all my supercharger parts. I'm sure I can make close to 2000 for it all(including header, cai, and other add ons)

anybody know the flange size, type whatever you call it lol thats on the turbo manifold on a saab 9-3? I was thinking maybe to save some money, buy the turbo mani, intake mani off of a saab in the junk yard here in town. Then go to a local shop and get custom piping done, from what I've been told for about 200 bucks.
