im planning on using a precision pt88

Way too big on a stock 6.2L displacement. Not gonna make any torque and will be a b!tch to spool. Plus the 82mm I'm using outflows the pt88. But that's just my $ 0.02

Welcome and sweet set up!

depends on what housing you choose there are ways to spool an 88 quicker also the 88 will give me the power im looking for and being on 2 step with the ams1000 i should be able to tune it in so that the boost will come on quicker than most. i might just get a hold of pte and have them put together a custom turbo for me though seeing as im sure they can put together something that will work for my needs .

i also thought about the pte7675 but i think ill over spool it

The PT7675 is good for right up to 1000whp with engines our size. I know because I have over 15 of them on jeep srt8's that we design kits for. They are a great turbo and create crazy torque with little to no lag.

I understand with technology helping with spool up. But are you really ever going to shoot for 1300-1400whp? Then there's no reason for a turbo that large. Especially when there is a turbo that is better fit for your engine size that still can produce 1300whp but create the awesome torque down low.

Just a snap shot of a group of jeeps we built kits for. We hold the record for a stock, unopened motor for the jeep srt8's with a 10.66 @ 124mph. All done with the PT7675 with their largest exhaust housing.

this is my first turbo build and havent done anything close to this before so im still learning the turbo side of things

Well I can tell you turbos are superior to a blower if selection is correct.

One thing that the industry has mislead a lot of people on is that "bigger is better". That is not always the case when it comes to turbos. It's all a matter of proper wheel size, exhaust housing, compressor housing, and piping size and shape.

my question is what would be your end goal as far as HP goes?

my goal farther down the road is going to be 1200ish

That's gonna be a challenge unless you convert to 6 bolt heads.

But as an example, this is the turbo I will be going with. Much better suited for our size motors.

i would want something with ball bearings for longevity. im considering going with the agp twin kit but im not sure as i feel that i can build a kit for alot cheaper

Personal opinion on ball bearings are they are a waste of money. I have seen journal bearing turbos last longer then ball bearing as well as ball bearing fail prematurely. Back in the 90s with technology then, yes I would agree. But these days there's not much of a difference.

Building one yourself will be slightly cheaper for sure. If you have the time and talent then that's what I always do. But the AGP kit is a performer for sure.

on main reason for ball bearings would be the quicker spool but hell for 600 its almost not worth it. Its hard to make up my mind between an agp kit or build my own single since the agp kit has been proven time and time again

The spool up will not be noticeable. You'll be fully spooled by 2700rpm at low boost. The tires will break loose well before that too. Yes if going with an extremely large turbo it might make the difference. but with a proper sized turbo you won't tell.

I should have my single kit done by March hopefully. So depending on when you decide I can assist in any way I can.
