Lets say i keep the stock turbos and add a greddy sp exhaust,hks intake,greddy intercooler upgrade,greddy cooler kit,greddy metal head gasket,greddy forged pistons,greddy forged connecting rods,greddy racing spark plugs, some pulleys,new downpipe,new cataylic converter, and maybe a new clutch.Do you guys think i could hit 12s or lesser?

 

And yes i know its a lot of money but i just wanted to know if i would hit 12s or lower.Thanks for your responses!

 

Oh yea also if i add a greddy boost controller.

 

If you are going to do a rebuild may I suggest going all the way with cams 3.2 or 3.3 bore kit, computer and bigger turbos. make sure you have 2 exhaust temp guages to so you don't blow up.

 

How much horespower can the stock turbos handle?

 

~400 rwhp...they are the limiting factor. Building the motor won't gain you much hp with those small factory turbos. In fact, it should be relatively easy to run JWT Sport 600's on a stock motor. That should put you around 500 rwhp and should be safe on stock internals.

 

I am not sure about this but I think stock internals can handle up to 500-550hp safely it might be a little more than that but not sure this is just hear say.

 

Yeah it's somewhere around there. I wouldn't spend a lot of money building the motor if you're going to put small turbos in. It doesn't make sense. If you want the cheap and reliable route, I'd get a new Nissan shortblock for $3K and then JWT 600's for $2300 and rework the head. Slap it all together and you should have plenty of fun for many many miles.

 

Is the Greddy TD04 Turbo Kit alright with all these modifications?

 

It's small...comparable to JWT Sport 500's and the Sport 500's are way cheaper.

 

Do you know a site where i can get a JWT turbo kit?

VROOM!
