Whenever I spend a lot of money on a new suit at a designer store, I make sure I run right to payless to get some nice matching shoes. They don't make me look like a tool, I swear it.

When people make fun of my payless shoes, I try to justify them by saying I saved money.

But in the end I go buy some nice ones to match my suit after the soles fell out of the knockoffs.

Just make sure you dont have a crap pair of shocks (ebay manifold) along with the shoes

Anything "XS" or "auto chrome" or anything other names they go by is junk.

Keep your turbonetics or if your looking for a new one go with garrett unit

a turbo that will break before your done tuning isn't better than your 60 trim now is it?

either get it tuned with the 60 trim or wait and save and buy a turbo from a reputable company you'll regret buying that junk ebay turbo

I've gotta ask, what is custom with your Pauter rods?

DO NOT get anything but a brand name turbo.

Is it a T3 60 trim or a T04E 60 Trim? What hotside?
You can easily make 400-450whp if it's a T04E. Don't even bother with the XS power junk.
BTW 500 won't get you a better turbo, unless you find a good deal on a used one, but buying used turbos is not exactly smart unless you know where it came from.
If you really want a new turbo, sell your 60 trim, sell the xs junk + that $500 and buy a proper turbo.

If your on a limited budget, why not maybe look around the classifieds for a low miles good condition sc6176 precision unit... its going to be pretty reasonable on price, will support close to what a gt35r will, and your only real sacrifice is going to be a little more lag.

Hell, if you're going to cheap out, get a 60-1. It should work for your goals and won't be a total pile of crap like that Egay "GT35R"
