1995 175 hp question
 

Marry X-Mas to all !

I just got my over-haul completed and would like some advice as where to go next. My engine is now.020 over, I used Mahle pistons with a larger space from the dome to the first ring land along with a different shaped dish........shallower but wider.......like a marine. I used a Hamilton big stick cam(181/210). I had some ddp stage II injectors so I put them back in..........also I used a .020 thicker head gasket with studs and the head is o-ringed. I splurged on a gorrilla stud girdle and had every thing balanced. I am timed at 17.5* and still have the stock hx35.......it runs good, but HOT! The pump has some131/181 hybrid dv's that Sheid did for mea few years ago. I have a 4gsk and 60lb valve springs.
I have been researching turbos like crazy and driving myself crazy trying to make a good choice! I would like to have a nice reliable 550 to 600 hp. I tow very little and when I do it is no more than 8k. It is a 5 speed and I have a decent sb clutch that should be good for a grand of torque?
I would love to tap in to the expertise in this group to point me in the right direction. I have tried to search the forums to get me there, but just hav'nt found the right one!............It is just so much info to look through!

Thank you in advance for your input:argh:

Compounds is what you need for that power and stock towability...

HX40 over a HX60 is what i'm running, unloaded and not getting heavy on it... it rides like stock... when i get on it... it will break wheels loose @ 50mph !

You can also use some other turbos and get some ready kit... but this is my suggestion as i have experience from it...

Loaded it will tow like stock, i've tuned my AFC to run very clean... it will haze under heavy loads !
