A bonus though of running such high boost and hitting high boost low in the RPM band was we made tons of torque too. Now this power can only be had if the owner is willing to grab his wallet for $9 dollar a gallon race gas in the tank. We eventually do meet our goal of 650whp but we had to run such high boost pressure to reach that goal, that race gas was required. We go to the dyno and continue turning up the boost pressure till we hit our 650 HP goal. Strong choices would be a Garrett GT35R or GTX35R, or a Precision 6262, or a Borg Warner S362. If we say our goal is say 650 wheel horsepower, then we would be looking for a turbo that can flow upwards of 60 lbs/min of air. Since we need a specific example to talk about let’s go with a mid size turbo and a mid size motor like a 3.0 Liter Toyota Supra motor (2jz). Now that we have talked a little about the pro’s and con’s of each let’s talk about why picking the smallest turbo for our power goals isn’t necessarily the end all advice to turbocharger sizing.

So you have decided to turbocharge your car or upgrade your existing turbo, but are stuck on what size of turbo would be right for you. Does a large turbo car make a terrible streetcar? Things to consider when picking and deciding on a turbo size for your build.
