won't be able to put the 3071 powerlab twin scroll setup on until I sell a hatch with an s14 sr that I just got done. So I'll be running a t28 bottom mount setup for breakin...booo right? Head only has one upgrade for now...supertech 20v ti retainers which are different than the p11's and harder to come by. I got mine from a guy who had to order 20 sets just to get one made. Power will be transferred through a cf twin plate exedy to a q45/r32gtrclsd/pathfinder r&p modified diff but for breakin I'll just be running a stock q diff. Injectors are srt4 stage 1 565cc if I'm not mistaken which have a better spray pattern than the caliber srt injectors. Also have an auto sr bellhousing for a t5 dogbox I plan on building in the near future. This is all going in a fully worked (minus a cage) 97' s14 (no crazy bodykit stuff as I don't really care about all that)

...Like I said I'll post more pics soon as it starts coming back together...I'm super excited to see how this head performs compared to my fully worked s13 blacktop head that I sold. anyway wish me luck:)

BTW big thanks to Rich @ Xcessive Manufacturing for making the p12 runner adapter flange and not charging me extra. The item is now on their product lineup for anyone wanting to use the p12 runners of course when running a p12 head. And also a big thanks to GregV @ Gspec...I've got to shoot him some pics and info on the oil pump spacer and pulley modification.

Right now I have a stock T25 RedTop SR20. My Turbo choices (To aid in advice) are:

Tomei M7960

S15 Turbo T28

GT2871R

I am a huge Nissan Fan!! My original project started out to be a Replica Nismo 270R (Upgraded to 370 Hp) but decided that my car will be a weekend warrior/ summer ride (cuz it rains too damn much here) that will have some style but able to turn on the "Fun" button when needed.

I have good support mods already to drop in any of these turbos, minus intake manifold, Fuel management and bigger injectors.

Which of these turbos will get me around 350whp+ without pushing the motor to far when lightly modded?

Thanks

I'd go with a gt2871r...that should be plenty for ya and they're relatively easy to find used and in good working condition.

Just picked up a 2001 Nissan Quest 125A alternator and this bad boy all for the low low price of $250...GOD I love living in redneck country because they straight hook it up unknowingly lol. Anyway enjoy the bling! I'm not done cleaning it yet.

VQ 6spd from a low mileage G35!

T4 TS POWERLAB MANIFOLD

I'm getting it coated, this picture is 2 weeks old, and my sr->vq 6spd trans adapter is being shipped this week so I can get some measurements to DSS for a one piece aluminum driveshaft.

Also got the block back from the machine shop...I'll post pics later this week as I'm assembling it.

I'll be posting a recently built s14sr hatch too that I'm selling to finish the s14 vet build which will pay for a 7670 efr, some driftworks spindles and steering rack spacers, and a used Toyota T100 to drag the moneypit around.

Yes it will, search around. You'll need a bunch of other items to make it work on an SR20det block, research it.

google. word!

and of course I will be telling everything I did to mine, the parts used, and such to make it easier. For the guy who asked where to get them, you can find the p11 variant (dizzy ignition, and lower duration cams, and flows a bit less) on ebay for like $900 or you can track down a head someone is selling but not going to lie people ask $600 all day for them since the block isn't worth a whole lot without it. My suggestion to anyone doing this swap is to be patient and to buy the whole engine so you know exactly what you're getting, and most times if you find a deal, you can come out even or a little on top in the end vs what you would pay for the head. The p12 20v engines are harder to come by and much rarer. It has taken me quite some time to part out what I didn't need so unless you have patience and time I don't suggest you go out and drop $4k unless you have your mind set on working to get it back.

if you're interested in how to do the rwd setup...google...there's builds to read and learn from. If you're interested in how you're going to tune and what mods will do what...the fwd sr20 forums are a great resource.

What flange did they use for that manifold? VE or DET? If it's a DET notch the bolt holes so you can mount it right so it lines up perfect with the ports.

They used a det however it lines up perfectly already (guess I got lucky lol), I noticed however before I got rid of my megan bottom mount that notching was necessary as I've heard of people having issues.

Yeah, I had to notch my peakboost manifold to line up correctly.
