Whenever I spend a lot of money on a new suit at a designer store, I make sure I run right to payless to get some nice matching shoes. They don't make me look like a tool, I swear it.

Spend the extra few bucks and get a name turbo like a Garrett. Dont buy junk because sonner or later your gonna be spending money again on a new turbo

jdmb16turbo

i have 1700 to spend on retuning my car and gettin a turbo that turbo is gonna run me 500.

When people make fun of my payless shoes, I try to justify them by saying I saved money.

But in the end I go buy some nice ones to match my suit after the soles fell out of the knockoffs.

Just make sure you dont have a crap pair of shocks (ebay manifold) along with the shoes

LoooL @ Rota

OP you gotta pay to play, if you dont have enough money I suggest waiting longer and saving for the good parts........

jdmb16turbo

i have the money thats why everything on my car is name brand.i was just asking if it would be better then my turbonetics turbo

garage16.ca

Anything "XS" or "auto chrome" or anything other names they go by is junk.

Keep your turbonetics or if your looking for a new one go with garrett unit

96 GSR-T

And once again ditch those cams for GSR/ITR if you do keep the 60trim......

jdmb16turbo

i know for sure im not keeping the 60 trim.if i can find a better turbo for 500 then i pick it up

spoolin turbo s

a turbo that will break before your done tuning isn't better than your 60 trim now is it?

either get it tuned with the 60 trim or wait and save and buy a turbo from a reputable company you'll regret buying that junk ebay turbo

Master Power has a gt35R commparable turbo for around 600.... they are not junk turbos like xspower.

I've gotta ask, what is custom with your Pauter rods?

DO NOT get anything but a brand name turbo.

jdmb16turbo

^^^not sure they where in the block i got the list of everything that was done to it and the pics when i got the motor.i ve seen a couple of ppl us custom pauter rods

Is it a T3 60 trim or a T04E 60 Trim? What hotside?
You can easily make 400-450whp if it's a T04E. Don't even bother with the XS power junk.
BTW 500 won't get you a better turbo, unless you find a good deal on a used one, but buying used turbos is not exactly smart unless you know where it came from.
If you really want a new turbo, sell your 60 trim, sell the xs junk + that $500 and buy a proper turbo.

If your on a limited budget, why not maybe look around the classifieds for a low miles good condition sc6176 precision unit... its going to be pretty reasonable on price, will support close to what a gt35r will, and your only real sacrifice is going to be a little more lag.

thats sig material LOL

Hell, if you're going to cheap out, get a 60-1. It should work for your goals and won't be a total pile of crap like that Egay "GT35R"

go holset... fairly inexpensive, and great turbo..

LShatchie

i have the same turbo and ive had it now since last April 08 and have had no problems, great turbo got mine new for $360 shipped off eBay.... 473whp at 18.5 psi here is my dyno sheet hosted on innovative motorworks website

spoolin turbo s

now that is impressive you know one smart chinese guy must have put that one together
how do you get one like that? hit or miss? i've heard all the chinese turbo's are getting better. I don't know how much truth there is to it but thats what i've heard

if they all would do that everyone would be making 500whp
haha

Boostage

Was that really necessary?
