You forgot PTE and HKS' are Garrett's. I would say Garrett is the best with PTE next. You also forgot Mitsu, KKK and IHI!

There are a ton more as well. Anyone ever seen a hitachi turbo? I had one on a couple of my bikes years ago.

Personally, I like the Turbonetics and Garrets.

Mitsu's are good for durability. Garrett based ones are good for variety and cheap cost.

I think I met you at Tom's one night...

If not, just ignore this...


If you get a 1g DSM, stick to the stock turbo for a while til you learn the car itself. From stock, free mods will give you signficantly more power.

You most likely don't want to just go and throw a huge 60 trim with no supporting parts.

Matt V (LOAF) Runs stock turbo, and has plenty of power.


...I'm watching SWAT. Research the hell outta this before you spend mucho $$$

hehe.


i say go out and get a huge 60 trim, or something big like that, and it will force you to buy supporting mods. it'll also be more fun untill it breaks.
