Hi there, thinking about upgrading the stock turbo in Ecoboost 2018. I was actually aiming at Turbonetics Twin-Scroll NX2 but I am open for other suggestions. The main use of the car is rather daily driving so I want to keep it rather silent. This is going to be a third stage of the upgrades but I want to know more or less the price I will have to deal with. At this point, the intake, intercooler, downpipe and catback exhaust will be already replaced.
- Is a new blow off valve a must? I don't really like that "psssh" sound but I don't want to avoid it at a cost of significantly lower turbo lifetime
- Should I replace the charge pipes with aftermarket ones?
- Should I replace the wastegate or turbo manifolds?
- Is there anything else that I should definitely replace/add to this build?
My budget is pretty limited because of turbo's high price so I don't want to spend additional money unless it's a safety need or brings a significant change in terms of HP/TQ.
Thanks in advance for your help.
