Default hf manifold...need help with turbo

You are limited to an internal WG unless you bore a hole into your manifold... LOL.

What is your budget for the turbo?

are you referring to a 60 trim compressor wheel with a .63 a/r turbine?? if so i think that is too big and normally doesnt come internally gated. maybe you are confusing a .60 a/r compressor with a 60 trim?

a better fit might be a straight t3 super 60 or a gt28r/rs/71r (any combo of that turbo really)

Figure out your power goals, figure out how soon you want the turbo to spool, and do some research on how to read turbo compressor maps. Find some maps of internally gated turbos. Then pick the one that fits closest to your needs. Also check out what other people are using for similar setups, and then check out the compressor maps for those turbos.
