we need to know desired hp, and where you want the power.

I still don't understand how ebay can let people sell that junk. Those turbos are very poorly built, there's not quality control or anything of that nature. spending 200 bucks in that turbo is like throwing your money away.

For a cheap turbo go with a Garrett T3/T4, they come in a variety of sizes to fit specific applications/power levels.

A 47 trim would be as small as you could go and even then you would need to run a descent amount of boost to do that.

There is always the good old 57 trim that would do it for sure.

The most important thing that you need to consider is what your budget is and what your goals are. You have said that you want 300bhp.. well how much boost are you willing to run? What octane of gas are you going to be running? What kind of engine management?

There are so many thing that you really should call a vendor that you feel comfortable with and talk to them about what you are trying to accomplish.

There are 100 different ways to get to the goal you want. It is finding the one that is right for you that matters.
