Garrett GT30 Twin Ball Bearing.

I personally will be running a GT30 with a .48 a/r and 52 trim wheel and t04b housing. These turbo's spool up 600rpm faster or more depending on you setup and 0% spool down in between shifts due to the twin ball bearing center section. The only downside is that they cost a lot. I'm getting mine for around 1250.00

there's no one best turbo for everyone. you should take into account where you would like spooling to begin in the powerband, when you'd like to hit full boost, how much boost you plan to run, and what power you're looking to make. figuring these variables into the "equation" will help you select the turbo and trims that're right for you.

I agree. I'm going to be using the GT30 turbocharger. It's a dual ball bearing and water cooled turbocharger.
