I'm never been in a car with a 50 trim but I have been in one with a GT35 with a stock block and all the supporting mods. I got to tell you I was impressed, the car was a beast. He also took me through some twisties and the car performed great. Maybe there was some lag but the car was so fast that I didn't notice.

As a matter of fact I just bought an AMS GT35R kit from a member here and I should be getting it some time this week. I'll give my impressions on it when everything is installed and tuned.

 

Gt2871 .82 ar .... That should work well.

Just something else for you to consider.

 

Can you be more specific on the "supporting mods". I will like to know

 

cams, headstuds, ic, meth, fuel pump, injectors, mbc, bov, tbe, hks DLI II, flash... all the normal mods needed for a turbo upgrade...

 

those are pretty much the mods I going to have. 50trim or gt35r? Damn I just can't deside

 

Ok put it this way the 50 trim is a better choice for just pump gas.. If you are going to get alky injection then i would go with a 35r. The reason why people are saying 50 trim is a better turbo is because of the spool. 35 will make more power even on pump then a 50 trim.. A 50 trim at 23psi will make X hp, a 35r at 23psi will make more power! Why? Because it pushes more air if its just a fact.

The lag of a 35r is just fine considering how much of a power band you will have. Put it this way if you never want to build the block just keep the stock turbo. If you want pretty quick spool with more power get the 50 trim.. if you want to spank 90% of the cars on the road get the 35r.

 

ha who doesn't want that. I going to run alky but I dont want to build the botor yet, do you think gt35r till worth it?

 

seriously try the alky first, its amazing...then decide if you want more, you probably will but it will atleast keep you happy for a while...

 

Im addicted to power I have to go more than 450WHP!!!

 

450 is just a number, trap speed is what you should care about...the meth alone will get you 115-118...

 

imagine that in a bigger turbo

 

but whats the average 1/4 mile times/ traps with a 50 trim?

 

w/ cams ,ems, alky injection on 93 octane with stock motor /intake manifold (besides the cams and headbolts compared to your mods) i made 558 awhp SAE corrected at 29-30psi so i would say gt35r w/.63 backside....good spool and big power. Rev the stock motor to 8500rpms at most ....i did or you can go 8200 rpms which is where most people say is max and you will have a nice big powerband. BTW i drove around with about 500-510 awhp and that was enough to trap 129mph

It all depends on the driver and track conditions

 

true, but I think there is a big difference "hp" between those two turbos if we take it to a 1/4 mile
