With the 35r thats kinda big? So you must be going for high hp.
I have a friend with a gt2560, would you think thats too small? I have goals of like 300whp
Badass, I would love to do a forged build in the future. I am aiming for 400+whp and have some head room for more power as I tune it.
Here is my opinion on it, A t2 series will work, but it will just be blowing hot air up top, the efficiency will be in your lower rpms. Granted there are some turbos IE the GT28RS (disco potato) that would better work with your motor.
A T3 series turbo is the minimum i would go with if you are looking for 300+, the HY30 or HX30 or t3/t4 50+ trim would work out great for you.. There are TONS of options out there. With your motor being 2.9 and having head work done, id recommend a bigger turbo.

that 35r should make some mean power

And you dyno'd at 150whp/155wtq? What cam are you using? Hmmm. Either the cam/Miller MAF/WAR Chip is making up for the miles or my motor is freakishly in good condition after 299k. I dynod at 164whp/154wtq. i need more tuning as well. and i had a vacuum leak during that dyno tuning session.
EDIT: after looking at ur graph again....its BEAUTIFUL Compared to mine...holy crap. probably the vacuum leak i hope. i'm gonna go back.
If I had my myster-e head + long tubes on long enough to dyno I would have been in the 170whp'ish range easily, id say your motor is running great for its age.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Got a little more work done today... I took some pics of the adventure :D
Everything involved to make the oil pump turn -
The intermediate shaft -
Another gear that meshes with the intermediate shaft thus turning the pump -
The actual oil pump, you can see the rod that turns the pump -
The finished product, the water pump as well -

Well I spent some time in the shop today and put the turbo motor some what together! The bottom end is all set + the head is torqued down and ready for some power..

Alright guys, I didn't get where I wanted to by christmas... My machinist went into surgery and he has been recovering and getting back into the groove again, it took him a while to get the block done.
The block was picked up today and it looks AWESOME! In the next week I will be assembling the bottom end and getting the head buttoned down...
