T-88h and the mk3 supra

[grimace65]

I currently am making my 88 supra from na to turbo. I have already purchased the t-88h turbo from greddy, however i have heard that it will be lagging like crazy. Should i keep this turbo or bust a mission and sell it and look for another? need help

I Can Tell U Right Know That Turbo Is Going To Be Very Very Laggy..i Would Say Go With A Sp57 Ball Bearing Turbo Know That Spools Up Fast..............



Good Luck!!

but isnt that t88h like a badass turbo? i also got 660 injectors and probably go with 3in piping exhaust system. what can i do to get that t88h to spool up fast, or just upgrade the intake and valve springs?

Define "badass"

If you have to ask these questions, you are not ready for a T88.

So you bought a t88h..... what hot side A/R did you choose?

 

[flubyux2]

lol... you really should sell the T88. the Greddy T88's are designed for massive top end with total disregard for low and mid range. not to mention, they are old school designs.

and technically, hes right: if you have to ask, youre not ready for a T88 yet. for one, i can tell you that if you plan on using the T88 to its full potential, youll need some 1000cc injectors, not 660's.

i bought a T88H-33D for my car and decided that im not even going to BOTHER putting it on a 7MGTE with stock displacment. im going to have to build another motor to have more cubes to spool this thing w/o nitrous. my T88 has the 17cm2 exhaust housing.

oh so very true....

 

[SupraMario]

well there goes one of my questions about the NA-T swap well. man i love this forum.

 

[Idealsupra]

oh so very true....

couldnt have sad it better myself...

Good idea: Na-T.

Bad idea: NA-T using the greddy t88 and 660cc injectors.

You might spool in 2008....Maybe.

 

[silver88turbo]

Actually with the higher compression of the NA pistons it would spool sooner.

 

[boost PSSH boost]

ok so it would spool fall 2007...haha

Yep, probably around 5400 rpm instead of 5500.

[beavis]Do it! That would be cool![/beavis] Just get some 1000 cc injectors and a couple other little things.

 

[silver88turbo]

That little of a difference eh? I figured a few hundred RPM.

Ok, maybe 5375. Don't mind me, I'm just bored and whoring it up.

 

[silver88turbo]

(me too)

 

[boost PSSH boost]

gotta restore our post counts eh?

Yep, 1000cc injectors and a few other little things...you know...cheap stuff like crowers, cryo treating, pistons....

 

[IHI-RHC7]

T-88 34D 20 psi 4000 rpms.
Fact.
Anyway, Jonzey and the rest are right.
If you're asking this question, you seriously need to sell that turbo and start with a CT.

soo... since i have the 33d, i should spool sooner, right? too much speculation. i should just throw it on and DO it!

on stock FUEL!
