Default turbo recomendation

ok, i was gonna go with the gt35r, but a good friend of mine thinks i'd be better off with a dual ball bearing 50 trim. what do yall think? i'm lookin between the 450 and 500 whp range. i know i'll need a hell of a built motor to run that much power. so what kind of turbo do you think would suit my needs? and also at what point would i have to change from a piggy back to a stand alone?? thanks.

35r whould be maybe over kill for that amount of power. the 50trim that FOG has was 475HP with a 2.3 bottom and tons of supporting mods on pump gas with meth.

Just them, that is why it is called the FP3052. My friend has it on his GSX, man that thing is beautiful, and it's sound while boost .....[sm=hail.gif]

ok, now that i'm set on my turbo... i need to decide which block to go with. Other than Buschar, CI Motorsports and SBR who else makes a good block for the 4g63/4g64? i don't think i understand the difference between the short and long block either, i thought a long block had a larger displacement but i see short blocks coming as 2.4l also... can somebody clarify here? i'm looking more towards CI Motorsports or Buschar b/c there's no way i'm paying over 5k for a block when i can get an 800hp stable block for less than 3k. thanks.

FFWDCONNECTIONS.COM

They make some bad *** motors. Also a long block is a block, internalts, head and valve train. Most of the time they come with cams. A short block is just a block with its internals.
