Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

50 trim turbos are the best for 2.0, I've had B16G E316G, 50 trim on a 2.4, scm61, this HX35 in bolton (acts like a 50 trim).

I have read from a lot of members too that they agree 50 trim sized turbo is the best for street strip cars, low end enough for the street and on high boost enough for the track.
have you checked any PTE billet 50 trim things?

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

If you're really wanting 50trim sized, an S256 is supposed to be somewhat similar.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Yea I checked out a couple 50trims that I talked to you about in the SB the one day. I'm pretty set on a 50trim on a 2.0, just haven't decieded on which one yet.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

PTE makes a super nice looking billet 5557, and another I can't think of right now. Go to EvoM and send Mike@awdmotorsports a pm, I talked to him about that turbo last fall and it sounds amazing. Otherwise a 68HTA would put down almost the same numbers, but faster spool and for cheaper.

Isn't the title of this thread Borg Warner turbos?

Start your own PTE thread elsewhere!!

Haha, kidding kidding calm down don't cut me.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Hahaha, well if you guys see any good threads about the s256/259, that aren't cluttered with crap posts, please post um up!!

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

I'm cut u *****!!

He is right though. S256 have eclipsed 500whp on DJ at around the 30psi mark multiple times I will search and edit my posts.

Don't make me go "Stumpy McNubbins" on your asses!!! :boxing:

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Found a guy making 470/405@30psi on a S256
I believe its bolt-on housing, with forrester SMIM, built 2.0L. I wanna say E85 cause hes from IA.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Wow, that's pretty impressive. Link? And on what dyno?

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

I believe link and DJ, sorry i forgot to add that.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

I meant do you have a link to any dyno sheets or anything?

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

no, i just ran across it somehow and remembered u wanted info

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Okay, gotcha. Thanks for the info though!

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

I'm sorry, I forgot what the Classifieds and PMs are for. It won't happen again because I'm sure some asshole Admin will ban me for it.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

anyone know if bw is planning to make vtg turbos for the aftermarket section? I was thinking with e85, it might be possible to push those type of turbos.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

You can push anything... just a matter of how many parts you want to buy...

Nice link for anyone looking to get BW/Airwerks turbos directly, without going through BEP. Of course these will come in there standard exhaust housings however. No Mitsu or .70 T3 housings like BEP offers.

These suckers are fairly cheap.

One thing else that I have recently learned is BW turbos typically come with 270 thrust bearings. However BEP offers a 360 upgrade apparently.

Re: Borg Warner Turbos
 

Sweet mary and joseph, that is fucking cheap for those BW stuff.
Good find.

Boo their prices on Holsets though.

Sounds like FR is working directly with BW and making some fancy new stuff. Interesting stuff I think. They are supposidely designed from the ground up, to incorporate all the latest and greatest technologies, but I'm sure you'll have to pay for it all in the end.

Interesting reading though I thought, and figured I'd share.
