Default edelbrock turbo kit gt2860rs upgrade

I have a edelbrock turbo kit on my daily car 98 gsr, I hit over 350hp on the dyno but the efieciency started to drop off.
My question is, what turbo would be good to make 450-500? that will bolt up and not give to much lag, I have been looking into the Garrett gt2876r. Any info would help. Normally I would just redo the flange,exteral waste ect but it is my daily so I would just like something to bolt up ,I leave most of that to my trailer Queen.

is the manifold t3t4 flange or t25 ? and i think a better turbo for the job will be a 3076 it will spool fast have good response like you are use to and can handle the goal of 500whp the 2871 will not make 450hp

Yes it is a t28 flange the gt2876 says up to 480hp, it seems to be the biggest t28

Sorry, can't answer question, but was interested in the edelbrock kit. Do you have the Victor X kit w/ your own fuel management? Built motor? Any pics?

You can go up to about GT3076R in an internal wastegate for the T25.

Performer x, I used my own engine management system because edelbrock screwed me and didn't put it in the kit, Also 86ed the secondary injectors and used bigger 880s, Not to worried though I took advantage of a amazing deal, someone put the wrong price on there site and had to give it to me for that, If I told you what I paid you would probebly want to come down here and punch me in the face. LOL and yes FULLY built motor.

Thanks I wasn't aware I could get the gt30 in a t28 flange,Does'nt seem to put out much more then the 2876 I will have to check it out, I dont have much room to play with.
