Forged but not cdb.
HS TD05 20g.
740cc injectors.
FMIC.
Tubular headers, matched Harvey Smith up-pipe.
Huge HKS induction kit.
LINK ecu remap by Bob Rawle.
Original UK 98 heads.

Around 400/400

And if it's laggy, I can't feel it

For sub 500bhp the SC46 is amazing on a 2.5, for anything bigger go rotated and use a Clinic Billet 35R.

I am going for a td05-20G , will see the high side of 370 with very fast spool. If I had the option I would go for a better 20G and aim for 400 or so with the same spool up.

Sounds like a nice build! The SC50 is a standard fit turbo with a 60mm inlet, what size is the inlet on your T?

What he said!

SC46 is THE turbo to have if you want sub 500 on a 2.5.

To give you some idea: my experience is that it spools better than a VF35 on my old 2.0 and produces 470/480.

If you have a CDB maybe you're going for even more ompf though?

CDB on a 2.5 - ? SCDS or OD, pinned ect, there is alot of talk on turbos on this forum, at some point someone will have to put up a chart with engine type , turbo , 1 Bar @ - RPM , and expected bhp/Tq.

I think for a road car my experience is that the power needs to be on tap just over 3K to 3.5K.
