a single turbo will make more power than twins. Go with a T3/T4 hybrid.

garret gt35r

or you could get a hybrid stock turbo. a 60 compressor upgrade and will make up to about 300hp on 10 or 12lbs of boost.




the only advantage of using twin turbos is to reduce heat load or if you have no other choice because of engine configuration.

Umm.... I'm dumb but, what will I need to put a turbo on?

Intake manifold, exhaust manifold... and where can I get these things.

This is sixstar, sorry for the different account, it's my friends.

Thanks again.
