Which turbo for 350HP B204FT

[fsl]

I am going to upgrade the turbo on my B204FT engine (2.0L 16V) and looking for around 350HP. Which one should I go for? It shouldn't be too big as I will have problems with the inlet piping because of the balance shafts on my engine. Please provide links

I would like to chime in here as well...

A GT2871R would work pretty good, wouldn't it? And used together with the ATP ultimate wastegate housing it would work well.

But I also have one question... Hotside A/R? Would the engine be able to build enough boost (20+ psi) at 3000-3500rpm with a .86 A/R housing?

you should get a complete b234, use steel ods andr trow away the balance hafts, thenyou have a bit more room to play with the pipes

Turbo + supercharger + stock b234 N/A manifold = BOOM!, right???

I have a complete B204 so i rather keep it. But is it easy to remove the balance shafts while the engine is in? I'm disassambling the front to swap to S90/V90 front tomorrow.

t3/t04e-50 trim. Loved mine with it. good response good top end, great turbo all around.

Is that a M62 off a Chevy? At least from here it sure looks like one; I keep hitting my toes on the one under my bed when I get home drunk.

I myself thought on doing the same but first want to find the diagram for the setup used by Lancia in its Rally days.

Hilmerson racing did the same thing and ended up with over 600 hp.
