I posted a thread on another forum, and got some good feedback. Just looking for more. I had originally planned on going with a Kenne Bell, but then decided do go a cheaper route, an on3 turbo. After researching for weeks, the on3 isn't totally out yet, but I'm leaning more towards an M90.
Forged internals seem to be a huge money sink that isn't necessary since I feel I could be happy with around 450+ hp, 450 tq to the wheels.
I really like the sound of the M90, and I think I could get the power I need out of it. On the other side I hear it has "heating issues" around that power level... and of course the obvious downside that there is no room for improvement beyond that.
Is the M90 reliable?
What kind of prices have they been selling for used on the forums if anyone as noticed?
How much boost can it run?
Can I get 450 rwtq out of it?
And what would the HP numbers be at with that torque?
If I could pick one up for around the cost of an on3, probably a little more, then I'd probably go this route. If I go M90, the other performance upgrades I'll be doing is probably only longtubes, offroad H, some suspension mods (LCA UCA Panhard etc, not lowering it). Would probably also get an aluminum driveshaft, I would not put a new clutch in unless it gave out before I was ready, but rather get a used TR6060 and do a swap
Opinions?
