Ummm.... Turbo question

Miura said:

Guys I have a question reagarding turbos.

I want to know which is the biggest turbo capable of pumping the most hp among this 3 turbos.

HKS T51R-SPL
Turbonetics T76
LSE T90


I know that the SPL is capable of at least 1000hp as this was told to me by Chris from HKSUSA.

I have no idea about the t76.

I know that the T90 is prolly the biggest turbo among the three but I'm not too sure about the quality of LateShiftEngineering products.

I would be glad if anyone can tell me the max hp output of the t76 and the t90.

An early thanx to all of your around here.

If I were to pick from those three, Id choose the T-51R. HKS make some very nice units. I sure hope this is going to be for a trailer queen drag supra, because the lag on any of those is fairly significant. A smaller/better sized turbo for the Supra would actually be faster(driveable) than those three with an better than average driver. Personally, I wouldn't go with any of those, I'd pick a nice set of HKS 2835 Twins ,a T-66, or an SP-66~70 for the most streetable monster supra. If you are wondering, Walser has 2835's and hangs with modded turbo Suzuki Hayabusa Sport bikes. I don't see a problem with Walser's supra tuned correctly for the track running nines. But that'll sacrifice the streetability of his car so we can understand why he hasn't gone full drag. T-66 Supras have run 9's. I pre-suppose the SP-70 equipped Supra can easily run a 9 too~ (assuming)

Saad Saad had a T76 that pushed 901RWHP with 15% drivetrain loss. This run is with nitrous I think. He (claims)averages 10.2 q-mi, but he says he has run a nine on an occasion.

Bryce has a T51R or so I've heard. Last I had heard of his car, he ran a 871RWHP. I got a vid of it. May be more now, after running that 1000RWHP HMS Viper 800R last week. He runs 11s but I don't think that is a good example of a T51R's true capability.

Never heard of the LSE T90.

Hope this helps.
