So if it's not going to be making copious amounts of power, I should be fine? Ok. Well I'm going to probably using the stock manifold and not the truck exh mani. Would that .25in make that much difference?

Alrighty! Christmas is coming up and my parents told me to buy $200 worth of parts for christmas so I get to choose :-))). I really need help choosing a turbo and I'm not sure which A/R ratios to choose. I'm assuming the A/R should be relatively small since I'm not going to be running high boost until much later. I'm going to buy my stuff off of ebay so that's where I'll give examples from.

T3/T04e .63 A/R turbo (is this anything close to what I need?)

Wastegate (I'm assuming since I'm fabricating the setup, I can choose any wastegate right?)

B.O.V. (fabrication means any B.O.V. too right?)

Intercooler (anyone that I can make fit right?)

money has been a bit tight saving up for this stuff (among other things) so I haven't gotten corky's turbo book yet. Let me know what you guys think.


69 Buick Special Deluxe. Intercooled Turbo Chevy 250 @ 15psi on a stock long block. It's kinda fast.
