your input on build-up

[TTIME]

 hey guy's, I was initially going to hold off on my next turbo upgrade till next year but the temptation wont let me

 My goals are between 350-400whp, I've done a little research on products and read some other members ups and downs during and after their build up. So I hope I'm choosing reliable parts that will perform. Car will be mostly street with some track days.

 pauter rods w/MAHLE forged pistons
    exhaust mani- T3 w/ external gate, 3" DP and exhaust (still sourcing make)
    upgrade the front mount to something like 24"X8"X3.5" turbonetics
    Turbo-3076 .63a/r external gate ( I heard of a 78a/r divided T3 housing?) .82 laggy? or possible bullseye S258?
     no head work yet, until funds get replenished
     upgrade my Unitronic file to 630's

  For the major components I hope I have everything covered, what do you guys think or suggest?

The internals are fine- the question is the exhauts manifold.  I think I'd ask Arnold at Pag Parts about his new v-band mani-looks like a really slick set-up

[TTIME]

  sounds good. I'll look into it, thanks for the info.

cheers.

I think you need to get a Vr6 and supercharge it jerry.

all you need is IE rods/stock pistons bullseye S258, FMIc, exhaust Eurodyne 630cc file and you have 360WHP@22.9psi pump gas. 418whp race gas. That's all on stock small port head and log manifold. Full boost at 3800rpm spools very fsat and support 600hp. more details you know where to find me.

  Yes those numbers are impressive for the set up.... I'm impressed by the spool time on the s258 compared to the Garret 3076. Some things I need to consider for my build.

[Bastard]

ill consider these when i go twin GT.

What about the S258??  Is it a Ball Bearing turbo or a thrust bearing one??
