jan 31st tune date-im fked

so my dumbass thought my date was in feb,well ED called me to remind me its next tues. so heres my problem. my goal was to pull the turbo,have it upgraded (from a td06-20g to 20g-xt),850cc and possibly larger intake and maf.

now,i have zero time for the rebuild. what kind of power will i see over a standard 20g? yes,i know-check the power bragging- on other sites. i did that and its hard to seperate the over rated BS to facts.

suggestions? at this point im going to push my date back and if i do ill post it up so someone else can get in.

What are your current mods and what state is your short block in.
The TD06-20g is a great turbo. What are you looking for? top end? quick spool? midrange punch?

Seems reasonable. Also OP when you use the motto of "procrastinate later" this is what you get

I know right... I was like... what's the big deal. Reschedule and get in gear.



The XT is an insane turbo line up. I love them. I'd like to do an 18g when I get around to doing my rebuild.

i didnt put it off,i simply screwed up the date. i guess the big question is just how much better is the XT over a standard td06-20g?

You should get better spool but I would venture to guess that the difference is going to be pretty minimal but if you have the dough go for it. LOL!

On a 2.0?

I'm still not sure if I'm going to do a built 2.0 block with opened up heads or a 2.5 liter long block.

He could have the 2.4 inch inlet and 7cm hotside for his 2.0. Less lag compared to the 3 inch/8cm
