It depends on what you want, If you want a street setup and don't plan on dragging that much, you would want a smaller turbo that spools faster, but won't be able to force as much air in. Solution=GT28R or GT28RS if you have some extra $$$ . These turbos ROCK, ball bearing *** kickers IMO. The have less lag and with some minor tuning you could be pushing 250-270. Good Luck

IBTL

You can't just come in expecting someone to tell you this is a good turbo

You can't trust one person on a decision....learn for yourself...use the search button and READ.

Knowledge is powA

i have searched and read but i was just curious what people have experienced. yes my car is daily driven and will be driven more than dragged. however i dont have 1000 to spend on a turbo, i was wondering waht turbo was a good bang for the buck. i'm thinkin a greddy 18g is a good deal.
