New to boost

[aXez]

So I plan to run a low street boost on my rex once my z6 is put in, the problem is I'm not sure what internals to use since it is missing pistons/rods...

Anyone got any pointers on what kinda pistons/rods setup I should use...

Only planning to run maybe 5-7psi of boost

depends on how much money you got. eagle rods with 3/8 bolts and forged pistons cost around 700 to 800 bucks.

depends on the turbo my friend....
5-7 psi out of a t25... id say go cheap and run stock internals... ull be fine
however 5-7 psi out of a GT40.... bess step up yo game and go forged.
since we dont know how many cfm ur turbo can flow or ur hp goal... it is impossible to determine what kind of setup would be the best for u to run.
:blunt:

I don't know the turbos or anything, just something to give it some more kick and hopefully get under 15s on the track. My HP goal is between 200-250 whichever is better for daily driveability, since I'm helping fund a race car project with a buddy of mine.

for that amount of horsepower ull be fine going stock block (although as always i recommend forged internals). i would check out some cheap Mitsubishi 18g turbos. they are small and spool very quickly. perfect for street driving and will make you horsepower goal easily and efficiently. good luck bro

It has more to do with effiecency than anything..

5-7psi on a t25 is much more efficient than 5-7psi on a GT40 for a motor your size...

So many aspects to look at. Hit me up if you wish to go indepth.

well, if/when it comes time to purchase a turbo kit...i have a full turbo kit for a z6...from the boost gauge to the oil pan for sale..! Turbo SOHC ftw.

yeah go read some compressor maps and see what will be most efficient for the range your engine operates at , then you can have a perfectly matched turbo.
