Is this turbo allright for c1j with standard cam? Or is it too laggy..?:crap:
Or do i have to get Piper 285 or alternative high cam choice?

should be fine, although a high lift cam is going to help things ;)
it really depends on how much power your after:cooter:

Power region could be somewhere about 180-200hp.
If you only want to hit that level of power, a 2554r is too big & will be laggy to drive.
A GT15-GT17 is more in that range, or even an old skool Tomcat turbo.
Could always modify the o.e T2...
You will need a decent cam to get the best out of the .64 exhaust housing.
Agreed, you could pick a small gt series turbo with mega fast spoolup for that power level. Logg's gtt for example full boost at 3500 and 200hp.Quote:

What i did was pick the smallest turbo that can supply the bhp i was after and then went up one size just to make sure. :)

Thanks for advice :)
As mart says :) Its a laggy turbo the GT2554r. When I tried one it was 4800rpm for full boost. Maybe just a smaller turbine would work OK, if you can find one.
