Hi all, how are people getting 300hp out of a t28 on a ca. Is there some thing I have over looked. I just put a new 2871r on mine with injectors fuel pump and tuned by a reputable tuner and even running 18 psi only managed 205hpaw. So I think you will need a bigger turbo then a t28, so just don't want you to have the same unrealistic expectations I had of a small frame turbo. If you want 300hp go bigger.

People get 300hp with a t28 with standard manifold. Just get a t28 do your Injectors a decent tune and bump the boost up to 15 pound.

I'm running a gt2535 and its the biggest turbo u can run on the standard manifold. I can handle up to 20 psi and it's ball bearing.

Depends how serious your build is?!!

I went with a 6boost manifold, and as far as i know they are the best around, its top mount with external waste gate (turbosmart 48mm pro gate from memory) and a garret GT3076r turbo. whole lot cost me about 3400 delivered from kyle at 6boost.


Couldnt tell you how it run as the car is not finished yet, but getting close.

Since the goal is 15 psi, just use the stock manifold. It's good for 20 psi turbos.

I'd say you may loose some back seat room with the awd set up too and mounting points etc.

These guys race ca18 in rwd- see how they set it up . Why reinvent the wheel. They seem to be able to hook up with Tyres. Unless you want to mini tub it internally

btw im no way encouraging street racing, but i do my fare share of back road racing. and I do my fare share of mountain runs on motorcycle. Im sure people also dont get that to lol......................As someone who used to road race motorcycles I completely get riding quickly but what I don't get is trying to go reeeeally fast on the street, there is so much less traction available on public roads that the corner speeds are slower than yer basic warm up lap.................this is a particularly acute problem for me as my road racing background is in 2-stroke GP bikes, mostly 125cc but the occasional ride on TZ250's...........................if you haven't been on track with your bike, you must try it at least once, it's just an absolute scream.......you can slide the bike around like a hoon and not have to worry about what junk is on the tarmac...................with all that said I have threatened to put Super Moto Wheels on my KTM 300 (it's plated / street legal)............I'm also considering a new Beta 520 dual sport (you can slide a bike around on dual sport tires in a fairly alarming manner if you choose)

OK back on topic:
I can't remember exactly on shock settings for drags but I would imagine if you set the compression on the rear shocks a little softer and the rebound a little harder then the optimal road race set up that would help the rear bite. Sway bars selection shouldn't affect the straight line acceleration (anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). As for ride height you could run the rear a touch lower / biased toward the rear, obviously it would have a little more understeer than the optimal road race set up. If you have a test n tune night at your local drags you could use that to dial in as much grip as possible............then maybe take it to a local autocross to make sure it still handles acceptable although once you round the first freeway on ramp you'll likely know . Grippy tires and a limited slip diff would also be a must as mentioned.
