Default Need turbo help

OK guys, im in the market for a new turbo and need your help, here is my info so you guys can help me out:

MOTOR SETUP
I have a fully built and GE sleeved 84.5mm low compression CP pistons, eagle rods, everything balanced, GSR motor with a fully built head with oversized ferrea valves along with a ferrea valvetrain and an AEBS intake manifold with a 68mm throttle body.

Turbo setup
SLS T3 topmount manifold 3in downpipe, 38mm wastegate, RC1000cc injectors, AEM EMS, Medium sized intercooler. walboro 255 fuel pump

I believe thats all the important stuff, so here is what i would like to accomplish. I want to have between 400-500hp on pump gas, and want to make comfortably make between 600-700hp on race gas. I dont want a boost transition that feels like a light switch, as i have read that comes from a t3/t67. and i dont want major turbo lag either.

So what turbo should i use, I have really considered a gt3582r but that turbo maxs out around 650hp. Is the gt35r the best turbo i can get that will fit my T3 flange? Is there any BW, precision, or turbonetics turbos i can get that will meet my goals? thanks a lot H-t and sorry for the essay

for those goals, yes the 35R will suit your needs nicely. I'm looking for the exact numbers and have already bought the turbo... Wish I had it done so i could tell you results but not yet!! good luck!

the only thing I would change here is the 38mm wastegate to a 44mm. Might see some creeping issues there.

IIRC, if you run high boost levels, the smaller wastegates are good.

you are limited with the t3 flange so there arent many choices to make 700whp. a gt3567r could possibly work, or a t3/t67 with a p trim exhaust heel aka gt37r aka t3/t67 H.O.

no need to worry about anything because your fuel system cant support your power goals anyway.
