Turbo selection question.

[joesushi]

We have a 2.4L with 8.8 pistons crower L2 cams+springs

I need suggestions on what turbo to get.

This car needs to spool quickly. It's going to be a daily driver, BUT i would also like something that can get 400+ AWHP. So maybe a turbo rated to 500HP?

Another thing is what type of manifold to get? we have a stock 1G one now, so its gotta go.

We also have to decide on which way to swing here: mitsu? T3/T4? One of those SBR Evo3 manifolds look pretty cool.

Imagine that you are starting from square one, which way should i go? And also, we dont want to get really pricy: maybe a 50 trim or a 60 trim. Those should spool prettty quickly on a 2.4. What do you think? I'm pretty sure that we dont need ball bearing and thats way expensive too.

Thanks
