We'll need a different piping/bov and dp setup, but other than that we should be in good shape. I looked closely at a Turbalt engine bay last night, and it seems to have even tighter fitment than the HHR around the turbo. We've got a good inch or so back there between the heat shield and the firewall. :)

With that said, I think the GT2871R they are using is a poor choice in size and efficiency. GT30R or better FTW.

 

it should work with the hahn piping and ic,correct???

 

With some minor changes to the hot side piping, I THINK. The intercooler is fine, of course. But remember that Hahn is coming out with a big turbo kit. Since you've got all Hahn stuff for now, you might want to wait for them to finish development.

My long term plan as of now is to use the Synapse manifold with a larger turbo, adapt the ADM DP to fit the turbo/manifold combination, use the Hahn IC with custom piping, and convert to blow through instead of pull through so I can have my BOV vent to atmosphere instead of recirculate. Idk though. I'm thinking of external wastegate for big turbo, so I'm not sure the Synapse manifold fits my needs either. Me and my big dreams.

 

yeah,i was thinking about it this morning. right now with my current situation,i will go straight hahn. by the time the next product comes out from hahn,i hope to have the cash ready. in the mean time,gotta get this clutch thing worked out.

 

Absolutely! It really surprises me that they took such a (relatively) small step up in spool size. I could see the GT28 as a "NA-to-turbo" kit, but on a car that's already got a huffer on it, make the jump more meaningful.

I'm targeting a GT30 as well... but that's based on the head flow limitations, not what I'd _like_ to have on there.

 

Now this looks serious!

 

Turbonetics billet 122mm capable of 2500hp and 60psi




WIN!

 

You know that BTF is already preparing to do heads to support his 800rwhp project, and that he will be offering them to the public...

 

When is hahn coming out with this big turbo kit? I never heard anything about it?

 

Yeah I signed up to be notified by e-mail about Hahn's products on their website back in August and have yet to receive any kind of communication from them even though they have a few products that they were giving us a good deal on before they "go public".
