do you mean size or brand?

the question is vague. what are your power goals and do you have a fuel solution in mind to get you to those goals.

EDIT: I guess I'll throw out a common sized turbo.....T3/T4 60 trim .63 a/r. and I've always been a Garret fan so that would answer the size/brand questions.....if that's what you were asking.

Everyone has been telling me to go with Garrett but I just had to get an opinion off of here. What kind of Horsepower gains can I expect with that. I looked at a Garrett setup for 3,300 and they were saying that i could see as much as 252whp. I'm not sure that is even realistic numbers

What exactly does the setup come with??

252WHP is about a 40% increase in power (assuming 180whp on a stock Si).

Those kind of numbers are great for that price.

wait wait....were you talking about TURBO KITS? or just the turbo itself?

i thought you were just talking about the turbo itself. never again will i buy a turbo kit. i bought my first turbo kit years back and I later realized i could have put together my own kit (with quality parts) for far less money.
