I just want my car on the road asap and can't afford a new turbo right now and like I said I have found a decent deal on a scm 5031 and an scm6152 I'm just not sure wich one yet and need to find an external wg setup
James (slowbubblecar) has this turbo still sitting in my garage:

I think he got it to put on a car he is thinking about selling (or my car) but nothing has happened yet. I know he has several different mainfolds laying around, oil line kit, 02s, etc.
I have a 60trim laying around that I would need to get rebuilt if you are interested in it at all. It was John Lacroix's old turbo. It hauled ass on a 2g gs-t before needing rebuild. I may throw it on my car though...

I need a mitsuflanged turbo cause I don't want to get rid of my fp exhaust manifold. the one in the link is a t3. is the 60 trim a mitsu flange?
Idk, I will have to check. They do make small adapter plates to put a T3 housing on a mitsu flange.

lol adapter plates.
I would say fiddy trim, i like response and the TQ smaller turbos make early.
I have a bolton HX35 and I like it spools damn fast for its size and the top end is there.

The question is how much do you want to spend? The best option if you have the money is a bolt on HX35.

I was thinking "400awhp" because everyone needs this much power because the internet tells them so. Once they actually have one that fast they realize what they do and do not need.
Maybe he does need 400awhp, then there will be a sacrifice of low end performance, on a 2.0L, to get where he needs to be.
I still think the evo 16g on E85 is the best street combo on a dsm.

not a ton right now. I just want to find a used turbo that's in good shape that will last me a while

and do I need 400awhp honestly I would say no it's more of a want ;). I haven't completely ruled out the evo III 16g. it is definitely the best bang for the buck.
and honestly right now I don't know if I can flip the bill for an external wastegate setup like most the turbos I actually want need. so that leaves me with a new v-trim like I have now cause they are cheap or a new eIII 16g cause they are the same price (or maybe a used one). I guess it just depends on how long I want my car out of commission
