The $$$ you have avail. as well as your power goals, would greatly affect which turbo kit you should use and why.

depends on what you want mate. for street use then go for the GT30R (the 3037). this thing, with the right mods will make 500wbhp no problems, hold 2.0bar all day long and spool up a few hundred rpm behind stock. very nice turbo for a 2.0 ltr or even a 2.3 ltr strocker (a bit restrivtive at the top but still very good).

if you want to go bigger, then i would go for the GT35R (smaller housing on 2.0ltr, bigger on a strocker). this turbo is capable of 700ish wbhp and, IMO, a little too big for 2.0ltrs, but as RnR have proven with thier 2.4 engine, can be an animal.

i would stay away from the ATP 3071 kit for a while. they have had some bad reports as of late. im not dissing the kit, it just might pay to hold on a little while till there is some more testing thats all. most of the other kit in the range have had good reviews, including ATPs take on the above two turbos.

i would also look into management of some sort. this will let you get the best from whatever turbo you go for. you do not need them, but they do make a better job than what the stock ECU does.

thanks Chris.

I really like the AMS kit, it's put together really well, but it all depends what you want out of the car. I'm a big fan of stock-like spoolup, but if all you're doing with the car is drag/street racing, I guess a GT35R is the way to go. I don't think I'll go any bigger than a GT30 at some point, but I still haven't gotten bored with the stock turbo...yet.

Check out this thread on our 50 trim kit. It retails for $2295 and works flawlessly.

I would check out these kits

AMS GT

they have anything you need I am deciding between the 3076 and the 35R myself... great spool and great power.... and just so that you know when they say spool between 3000-3600 they mean 20PSI by 3000-3600

Personally I'm going with the turbo trix setup but the RnR setup made great power for a damn good price.
