[s-cars] Ball bearing turbo

[djdawson2@aol.com]

I'd use head studs with anything running over 20psi... but that's just me.  The 3071 will make much more power than the RS2.  It will work with the RS2 software, injectors, etc...  It should be able to push past 400whp.  The pistons will be fine, but the connecting rods might not be.

Dave, would using the 3071 require upgrading the head studs or possibly the pistons? The 3071 looks like it makes a lot power that the RS2 turbo... Then again I guess if you use RS2 software or similar and don't seek the limits of that turbo the engine should be fine?
 
I figured if Mark wants to stay in safer limits.. the GT28RS or GT2871RS would be comparable to the RS2 yet quicker response.

 I would suggest the 3071.  Javad has it with the KKK hot side.  I ran it on my car for awhile using the .63 A/R turbine, and it hits as early as an RS2.  It has the benefit of being able to move about 44lbs/min efficiently, as opposed to only about 34lbs/min for the RS2.

Mark, take a look at the turbo's offered by http://www.034efi.com/index.php?cPath=21 
The GT28RS sounds like what you are looking for...comparable to RS2, however you 
might want to consider the GT2871RS too.

I have not tried any of these myself, however if you are looking for ball 
bearing turbo's 034efi has a full line up for the I5 20V.
