centri to turbo

evil02gt · Apr 2, 2015

After following Pate's thread I am now debating a change in direction. I currently have everything for my vortech v2 s-trim but am strongly considering swapping to turbo. Here is what I have.
Forged short block 9.6:1 compression
MPH blower cams
MPH 2.5 heads
Paxton air to air
Turbo XS bov
60lb injectors
Aeromotive rails
Frps adapter
On3 triple pump hat
VMP Housing with HPX 5000 maf
TFS Track heat intake
V2 S-trim with 3.1 pulley
8 rib setup
Upr o/r xpipe
Borla stinger cat back
4.10 gears
Full suspension upgrades and gauges.
I may have missed some small stuff but that is pretty much it. I first considered sending my head unit back to upgrade to a si but after reading the difference Pate has experienced I am starting to lean towards a turbo. If I go turbo what will I need besides different oc piping,manifolds and wastegate? I would really like to hear what you guys think. This is a street car and may go to the street fights a few times a year.

I'm very happy I made the switch from centri to turbo. Best thing I've done with my car. Get quality parts and a good fab shop and go to work.

I think all I will need is the turbo,wastegate,boost controller,manifolds and different if piping. Did I miss anything?

I also agree. Going from blower to turbo, I would recommend turbo.

Sitting in the staging lanes at the street fights right now. Getting ready to embarrass myself. Everything around me is built out the ass and I am basically stock.

I'd sell the entire supercharger kit. Including the BOV.

Scott2001GT · Apr 2, 2015

Keep the MAF setup though.

evil02gt · Apr 2, 2015

What bov should I replace it with?

So you would sell everything including intercooler and injectors?

Looks like you left out the front k-member and coilovers

evil02gt · Apr 3, 2015

I did forget the k member and coil overs.

You can use the injectors. If your intercooler is the center enter/exit Paxton IC it won't work without some custom piping. Depending on what you so for a kit, the turbo will mount right in front

That's the one I have. Would it be more cost effective to use it or swap to a mishimoto?

Keep your fuel setup. Sell the entire blower kit. More money and easier to sell that way.

Bell and Garrett cores are top of the line in intercooler efficiency. Don't skimp of that part.

OK. I will sit down and try to figure out what everything is worth and then see what I can get out of it. So I will sell the intercooler,S-trim, bov's and power pipe

It was easier for me to sell it. You can get pretty good money for them as well

evil02gt · Apr 4, 2015

I am getting ready to list me sc and ic setup as soon as I can come up with a fair price.
