ugh another turbo question

Post by LH95sohc »

ok guys I gotta question. Now I know that you all are prolly tired of hearing forced induction questions but I have one to add anyway. I kno that in order to make the turbo setup from an SRT I need the adapter to make it bolt up to a sohc. I have a list of shit that I need along with everything else. My question is, Im not goin for high horses here, I just want my car to have as much power as a stock srt-4, hell I'll even settle for 200-210 hp. What would be the best way to go about that direction with stock internals? Thnx

200whp would be pushing it for a stock-bottom SOHC. I'm not positive on the extent of power differences between SOHC and DOHC in forced induction applications, but you can get about 190whp from a stock bottom end DOHC at 9psi which with drag radials and a good driver can go 13.1. At least that's what dunny's setup did.

You'll probably be able to push about 200whp on the stock bottom end. After that things start to go wrong. Don't look at how much boost you're running watch the whp number. When you get to 200whp stop. You'll have to play around with the amount of boost to give the motor.
