..goto a muffler shop that has alot of full size trucks out front =) seriously lol

also doesnt it not matter because it is forced induction...so the BP wont affect the car like in an N/A setup?


That is correct, while most stock cam shafts work
well with a turbo motor, ideally closeing the exhaust
valve a little earlier than you would on a NA motor
will increase the cylinder fill, where in a NA motor
the longer duration of the exhaust valve is there
to allow the ram affect of the intake charge to push
more air/fuel into the cylinder, and sacrifice some
air/fuel charge to the open valve, but filling the cylinder
with more overall fuel and air for more power.

Back pressure is important in a NA motor to prevent too
much of the charge from going out the exhaust, which
would reduce the power and torque at low RPM, until the
flow of higher RPM causes the back pressure to be
sufficient to prevent the air/fuel charge from going out
the exhaust.

So, bigger exhaust here I come, along with a bigger turbo
(designed for an 1800 Vs a 1600 CC engine) I think I will
gain more power over the old setup.

Should be fun
;D

That's about right if you have bigger tires,

the 33s with 5.83 diff gears
