Don't think any of the options I mentioned in the first post are viable? Not sure what snail came on the 2.0, but I'd imagine it would be bigger than the stock 1.9 setup. I know someone on here used a benz turbo but their goals are probably different than mine, Fast rather than quick.Again, just trying to stay in a conservative budget.What would be wrong with the Starion IC? Seems to be a decent size and the stock piping brings both inlet and outlet to the same side. I also have a nice fat side mount I could use but the starion seemed a little better.Thanks for the input guys!Gee Bee, I did relocate the battery behind the pass. seat. A little more accessible than under the bed.
Holset HE211W/HE200WG:Used to be called HE211W, now they are mostly branded with HE200WG and I've even seen one with HE221W on the tag (yep, original Holset, not China copy crap)Only cast compressor wheel available, no ported shroud housings5cm turbine housing, at least two different outlet flanges availableCompressor:Exducer: 56mmInducer: 40.6mm6+6 blades (early prototypes used to be 4+4, now obsoleted)53 TrimTurbine:Inducer: 46.6mmExducer: 41.3mm79 Trim11 bladesNot as good surge margin as the bigger HE221W since there is no ported shroud compressor housing but much better compressor efficiency! As normally, all Holsets have 360° thrust bearings stock and they take a serious beating!Max airflow = 31.6lbs/min (HE221W = 37.8lbs/min)If you could find a similar sized Mitsubishi turbo it would take the same kind of abuse.
