Hello all
Im new to the forum but enjoy your site,I'm from South Africa and am planning to turbocharge my mitsubishi L200 PICK UP(YOU GUYS WILL PROBABLY CLASSIFY IT AS A LIGHT PICKUP)
Your products are hugely expensive here so I want to make the right choice first time round,here are some stats I've found so far

2.0 liter(122cid)
16 valve single overhead cam
compresion ratio of 9.5:1
standard power is 90kw

I dont want to open the motor yet just want to bolt system on,so decided not to run higher than 8PSI boost.It is going to be a daily driver so I need quick spool up time

I live 1500m above sea level so have worked out my pressure ratio to be 1.75(hope I worked it out correctly)
So far I believe a T3 Super 60 ball bearing TURBO to be my answer
but some advice would be appreciated thanks.

I'm also planning to use street/srtip BOV and evolution waste gate along with a large front mount intercooler(its hot over here so must keep temp. in check)

What are your power goals?... BTW so sorry for missing your post...

I would like to push the power up to 250bhp if possible without ruining drivability,but anything above 200bhp will put a smile on my face

In that case I would highly consider a T04E 50 trim compressor with a Stage 2 turbine. .48 A/R. Or you could opt for a T04B Super S. It would give you some additional head room to work with and still perform as well as a Super 60.

Thanks ,2 questions,what is "stage 2" on the turbine and at what estimated RPM will this larger turbo begin to spool ,I still want low down torque for drivability.

Thanks for the help so far,can't wait to start getting the parts together

Stage 2 referse to the T3 turbine size. You would likely be looking for a similar turbine size with a T3 Super 60 compressor so both compressors will spool up almost idnetically but the T4s would give you more head room and a broader power curve.
