Default Re-boosting - 2000 hatch EK3

Its a jdm 1.5 hatch ive boosted it before but just the otherday burnt out the turbo. I had a rx 7 2nd gen turbo in it boosting to 10 psi, whats a suiltable replacement?

I was thinking a audi turbo or a golf.. any other sujestions would be great thanks alot.

I'm not sure what manifold your have or your flange setup. But for a SOHC I'd recommend the T3 Super 60.

Yea it really depends on this, get whatever matches up to your turbo manifold.

its a custol log type drag manifold.. ( things built to take like 50 psi or more got it from a old school dragster, once I can get a flange that will fit I think I can get it welded together
