Switchback racing Single kit.
 
Thoughts on the kit? I am looking for a single turbo kit and right now its between the switchback kit and the bp kit. i am leaning towards the switchback kit since its top mount and I want to see the turbo haha.

Get the SOHO Single. Switchback quality is not that good.

Soho kit can’t hit 700-800whp though. Bp kit or switchback which is better u think?

BP out of those 2.

BP will have a lot of kits ready to ship come early December. Plenty of customers out there now with well over 800whp.

Switchback kits are great. Good quality, clean welds. They can easily make 700-800 whp. But I would still put BP first, Soho second, and switchback third.

Why do you say BP first?

Speaking as someone with a BP Kit -

Pros:
1) Twin Scroll Turbo. This has a big impact on when your turbo spools. Pay attention to the area under the curve, not just peak numbers. What's your goal? Boost at 4k+ rpms, or boost at 3k+? This is what ruled out the Soho kit for me. They showed great peak power, but I can't drive at peak most days.
2) Ease of install. Don't need to drop the engine, can do this in your garage. This means you can also service it yourself.
3) Good support. If you have an issue, Sasha will respond and take care of you.
4) Can grow with you. The 6467 turbo is enough to support serious whp (high 700s/low 800s).

Cons:
1) Cleaning the filter is a pain in the ***. Consider the filter relocation kit.
2) You may need that good support from Sasha. My intercooler (provided by a 3rd party) shipped to me with brackets welded on backwards. My fuel injectors had the wrong adapters. My charge piping didn't ship until Sasha followed up with the manufacturer.
3) It's not Fast Intentions. Not everything fits perfectly, although everything will fit. Manage your expectations and it will be ok.

My 2 cents. Boosted for 9k miles so far, no issues.

What are you smoking. Can’t reach 700-800whp, please educate me?

Thank you. I was considering the 6767 turbo for 800whp guess I am okay to go with the 6467. Which turbo do you have? When do you make full boost?

Someone who I contacted on SOHO told me the stage 2 kit maxes out at 600whp. Im also worried that the spool times they have are not as good as the BP kit

From my reading, the 6767 would certainly make it more easily (975 hp vs 900 hp). The 6467 would be maxed. I have a 6467. Keeping in mind I'm running on 93 octane with only the 750 cc bosch injectors which come with the kit, on the lightest spring pressure (7.5 psi), dyno sheet attached.

My plan is to get all of my supporting mods to be able to support 800whp except for a built motor and run on stock block for a bit 500whp. Then slap in a built motor and turn up the boost.

They publish results on their website. I believe there is a thread on the forum here as well.

Lol, I would recommend doing a lot more research on your part. Making power is easy with VQ’s, keeping them together is another question. Just head studs isn’t going to work at 800whp.
