choosing the right turbo...
i have read all about turbos and what the differences are and looked at all kinds of turbos... but i am wondering from anyones experience what would be the best turbo for a 1998 eclipse gst and i am gonna wanna push close to 400 whp. i was wondering what turbo you think would be best to handle that power and spool up quickly... i dont want a turbo at the peak of its limits. though... thanks alot. i have a few in mind, just wanna know what others think! thanks!!!
well i saw this turbo and thought it was badass... even though it is kinda pricey.... what ya think? it is like a direct bolton it looks like... but i would get it externally gated....

yeah, but i am not much of an off the line kinda guy.... i just like the ability to be cruising and floor it and get thrown back in my seat that starts spooling early... i dont want a turbo that starts to spool at like 4 grand.. thats just retarded... lol... i like hitting full boost before then.... i have some in mind like a said.. just would like input.. and i do appreciate it... and yer turbo was on my list =).. lol

good, cuz my 16g would start around 1700 and hit 18 psi by like 3300 or something... i havent driven it in a while..... what rpm is your turbo usually done spooling and at what psi?

that's not pricey for a BB turbo... it's actually a lil cheap IMO. if you are still taking suggestions i'd say check out www.forcedperformance.com they make some GREAT turbo's for a lot of cars including ours. when i get my gsx and start building i'm gonna be running a FP3065 capable of apx 650whp. and pushin about 550hopefully
