http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true

What do you guys think about this turbo for a turbo/carb setup. Is this enough, or too much or to exspensive?Im looking to start collecting parts, and I have searched through and have got the list of what I need. I was told to stick to t3-t4. garrett turbos. Let me know what you guys think, or link me to other good turbos elsewhere. Thanks

One more question. If you get a VNT 2.2 turbo 1989-91 garrett turbo, will the vnt still work for a rotary, I assume yes, but just wanted to see if this is a cool option if you want to pay the price. No lag would be great.

The hot side is way too small on that one. You want something at least 0.8. If it were me I would be looking at full TO4s. Or if you're trying to save on the overall cost, you could go with a hybrid (stock hot side, modded compressor.

Lots & lots of options.
