Turbo upgrade - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I am looking to upgrade the turbo in the mark3 and dont know which one to get. I called central florida turbo and they said to get their pt-71 turbo kit for like 2700usd price is not a thing right now just want more power. I am running on a upgraded ct-26 the last dyno came out to 356hp 348ft lbs torque. This is a great amount of power but want more. I would like to be pushing around 600hp by the end of the summer. If you have any info for me just post appreciate the help.

What type of supporting mods do you have now to go with that turbo?

That is a rather large turbo and to push 600 RWHP you will need quite a few additional things to go with it.

For 600RWHP you'll need:
- Pistons
- Rods (Stockers are good to about 700 which is less than you'll be making at the crank)
- Full 3" -> 3.5" Exhaust, w/free flowing catback setup.
- Head work
- VPC (Speed Density setups make the big power)
- Turbo + Exh. Manifold
- Intercooler + Hardpipes (not just any cheapy will do)

etc.

You'll have to notice that shooting for that high of a RWHP would put you in the Top 2 on 7MPower.com. There are reasons (usually money related) that most people don't get near 600rwhp.

Nope. Can't be done IIRC

what turbo should i use to upgrade a greddy t-76 or is that to big

Jeeves · 02-22-2005, 11:37 AM

That's a bit on the big side. The #1 spot on 7MPower.com is held by a guy with a T66.

I think I might just go with the pt-71 and turn the boost up real high and i just got my AEM EMS in today so I am going to Central Florida Turbo in like a week or so for dyno tune.
