Best Single Turbo Kit Debate

Acree · 01-16-2025, 11:30 AM

Does anyone know of a single turbo kit that offers recirculated wastegates instead of just dump tubes?

Vargas single turbo kit runs a single race gate that recirculates back into the exhaust.

Theoretically with a 7275 you can prob make 800-830whp with the stock DI system with E30.

Do you need to run a 3 port mac boost solenoid with single turbo setup? Or is it pretty much plug and play, just wondering if I will need Reflex if I were to run a 7275 on the stock DI system...
Currently looking at the spool performance top mount kit.
TIA

Is there a way to run a single turbo setup without unlocking the ecu?
Just using JB4

I understand is a weird approach, but why not?

Im not looking to be the fastest, I want around 580 on 93 oct and 650-680 on e30-e50...
I am looking more the sound and feeling of single turbo.

That's a colossal waste of money, 10k for a kit + install to get the same amount of power as stock turbos with a jb4 or unlocked ecu+tune can do.

Totally true, crazy and dumb but let me put it this way...

If I install one of these kits with a good shop is going to be between $16k - $18k with clutch, at least.
Would it be possible to do it while recover some $ and save for port injection, unlock and custom tune?
