Default going turbo and have a couple questions

finally decided i'm going to boost my h23, and i'm looking for a turbocharger that spools up fairly quick since my redline is only around 6500, maybe a t3, i think a t3/t4 hybrid would spool slower.. so i'm looking for suggestions.. Also, another question is, will my stage 2 N/A crower cams affect the turbo since i didn't get the F/I ones, or will they be ok?

The first place I would start is the forced induction forum FAQs. Also, once you chose your wheels and housings, consider that ball-bearing turbos (Garrett GT series) spool much faster than normal turbos.

What turbo manifold do you want to use?

Stage 2 cams probably won't be the best choice for boost, too much overlap. Stock would probably be better...

Are you kidding? I hope you have the capability to weld....that thing may not even last a week.

Please check out the forced induction FAQs before you buy anything.
