currently doing my 2.3L build and ready to buy a turbo kit now. i was looking into a lot of different kits, just not sure on which turbo i should run since the car is street driven and not a track car. I wanna make 600whp on pump gas. i was looking into the GT35R, HTA35R, HTA37R and GT850R. Not really sure on which to choose. I want it to spool up in the 3500-4000rpm range. Just looking for opinions on which is my best choice.
really looking into the ams kits or the ets twin scroll manifold kit.
Thanks for the help in advance

My 03 8, was stock 2.0L 35R made full 26 psi by 5600 rpm, only 400 whp or so mustang dyno. Lag was just bad!
My 06 9, now has a 2.3L JAM with AFI twinscroll 35R with .106 housing. I hit 30 psi by 4000-4200. I will be upgrading to a HTA turbo shortly, im greedy, I need even more power and even faster spool lol. If you want the ultimate road race set up this is it!!! I love it, so responsive, my buddys evo's with FPgreens even FPreds feel slow by comparison to me, response being nearly the same just a lot faster. No other set up feels this great, and I have been in a lot of evo's lol.
2.3L with a twin scroll HTA86 35R is the ultimate set up, 800+ whp with 4000-4500 rpm spool.

Haha I was recently running ideas through my head and I thought up of this exact setup. I read how buschur said they really see nothing that amazing to change over to twinscroll in a thread on here but I think this setup would be the *****. Especially on the street. I still gotta read that big twinscroll shootout thread though.

What size housings? I thought there weren't any TS housings big enough to take advantage of the HTA86. I am planning on a TS HTA82 with a 1.06 housing at the moment unless I can be convinced that an 86 is better.
