The search for more power

[Smokey_1507]

So the time has come to throw some cash at the c35 laurel current setup is rb25det neo with a front mount inter cooler  i need some info on the first thing to buy, ideally I’d be happy for around 450-500 bhp, if I could get away without going fully forged even better.. time has come to freshen up the engine bay... the less down time = more fun!! 

Direct bolt on turbo? 

Link ecu? 

Spitfire coil packs? 

Front facing intake plenum? 

Remap? 

Oil cooler kit? 

Best way to up the boost? Get rid of the 2 stage maybe.. currently running 7psi.

any info would be greatly appreciated ?

What is a stage 2? Where are your power numbers? Flywheel or rollers?

You will need turbo, ECU, injectors, probably a fuel pump and an AFM (if the ECU needs it). You will need these things. You can't just do one thing and drive away. The stock bits won't support the big turbo.

There are dozens and dozens of threads on this topic just this year. Search. In particular, look at the sticky thread for RB25 turbo upgrades. Look at the Hypergear thread. Look at the EFR thread and the Garrett G series thread. These will all point you towards turbo choices.
