Hi All,
I am a serious newbie. But I've been reading your posts for a long time. I own a Nissan Altima (U13) which is fitted with an SR20DET from the AWD U13 in Japan. This is still mated to the original FWD auto trans, and it sucks. I've recently purchased a FWD manual LSD gearbox and am waiting to install. At the same time, I am looking at a turbo upgrade and have been considering both the Garrett GT3037 and the GT2835. I am also open to using a T3/T04E setup if there was one I could work well with. I am aiming for a modest 300FWHP. The engine management I intend to install is a Microtec LT8. Pls give me your opinions on :
1. Which turbo would work best for this setup
2. Any feedback on Microtec (where I live, it's probably the best I can get)
3. What other stuff do I need? (Don't bother with the basics, already have a decent FMIC, HKS pillowball, Nismo tower brace, decent rolling stock etc. etc.) I'm new to the whole changing cams thing and would appreciate any indication on what cams work best.
The car is a daily driver, so I am looking for nice boost early in the rev range.
Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers, and TIA.
