Default Best turbo for Lindsey Racing 340rwhp kit?

I currently have the Lindsey Racing 340 kit except for the turbo. My only problem is I have ZERO idea what the best turbo would be for me. What i'm after is quick spool and a really nice power curve. I'm willing to sacrifice some hp for a torque monster. My car is a 100% street car. No track.

What turbo would you recommend?


My mods:
Lindsey Stage II Mass Air Flow Kit with Power Perfect
Lindsey Performance Computer Chips
Siemens 55# Injectors
Lindsey Dual Port Wastegate
Lindsey 3" Exhaust System w/ cat delete
Lindsey Manual Boost Controller
3.0 Bar Fuel Pressue Regulator

and:
SFR hardpipes
EVO BOV
INNOVATE XD-16 (still need to purchase)

Thanks,
Thomas

The Sport Turbo if they're still selling it or I'd do the Super 61

there is a Sport for sale on LR board.

Would a LR Super 75 cause too much lag? I already hate the lag of the 26/6

jasonlp - thanks, but i'll pass

I replaced the LR75/8 with a GT30R because of the lag.

How about a gt28r?, If you find the 26/6 laggy you will find the gt30r laggy as well

gt30r boost comes a live around 2800-3100 for me

Ski, do you know what the Lindsey Sport turbo is comparable too in terms of power / spool up? I would guess a K27/6 with better peak numbers?

No, not really. Just butt dyno experience from installing two of them - I'd say just under the characteristics of the Kokeln V(black car is 322, track car is 351) that they used to sell, which if not mistaken was better than a 27/8 at the time. In good tune, the kit and turbo can make 318-325 @17psi, depending on other mods. RUF has done almost 350 with the kit @ 18psi but did upgrade the exhaust to 4". The Sports power delivery is pretty smooth across the board.
