Opinions on track/street turbo

If you were looking for a good circuit track type turbo where it's easy to stay in boost and a nice street turbo with a nice power band and instead of a peaky one, would the fp black be a solid choice? I'm really looking into the ETS front facing kit with the 6266 but thinking that might be overkill on a 2.0 any one able to chime in?

Power goals are like 450ish to 500 tops on 93. What I don't want is a turbo that only comes to life at the end of my power band. I'm debating on the 6266 kit

Mods-- GSC s2 cams/ stock 05 turbo/ buschur 3"TBE no cat no muffler/ Megan o2 and manifold(gonna dump both)/ aem tru boost/ and oil pressure gauge plus wideband/ ets intercooler with short route piping plus ets intake. This will not be a straight line vehicle. Looking for more of a time attack build.

The 6266 CEA is a great turbo for built motors but will be a dog on the street with the stock 2L - you're not going to make any power until 5000rpm.

For the best spool and 450+ on 93, I would only suggest stock frame turbos such as dbb FP Red, MAP EF3 or CBRD BB BBK-B. Anyone of these turbos along with your S2s will get you to your goal on a dynojet no problem.

FP Black is overkill for your power goals

But say eventually I wanted more, would it be a bad choice and be a laggy turbo on the 2.0

It's pretty doggy on the low end. If you plan on road racing your going to want more of the fpgreen/red type category. I ran a bbkfull at VIR for a while, it was awesome. I put the red on and it did pretty well, wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. Now that I have the 2.4/red combo I can't wait to see how much fun it is

green or red can make a pretty easy 450whp on pump gas. Most anything that's going to make closer to 500 on pumpgas isn't going to be very track friendly. Powerband gets smaller, say 5k and up.

Awesome thanks for the response. So it wont be hard to pull off 450 with a red? Without stressing the engine too hard?
