need some turbo options for 350-450hp range

im going to start piecing together a new turbo kit for my car and want some more turbo options to look at...

all i really hear about is garret and turbonetics. i was thinking about getting a 60-1 or something along those lines, but im wondering wat else is out there..

this will be going on an 88 TII body, and a JDM 90 TII block. ive already got a 3" exhaust, front mount, ignition stuff, jsut need some bigger injectors, i was thining maybe dual walboros to run at full boost, and that should cover most of it...

and i want to run pump gas, maybe with alky inj.

If you're going to go the To4S(60-1) route, you might as well just go with a Gt35R. Better compressor all the way around.

We also sell them BB and non-bb with more rotary friendly P trim turbine wheels...

i was actually lookin at that turbo from you guys. i would go BB route though, non-bb doesnt seem as street friendly imo.

who can i talk to about getting a BNR turbo? and how reliable are they, compared to something like the to4s or gt35r?

know that a full turbo upgrade is going to cost you and take some time. That being said deside wether or not you want to go cheap and easy or long and expensive. Of course the later having more potential hp/psi output. with a bnr (even though a good turbo) is limmited to about 17psi of boost that will net you in the neigborhood of 350-400hp. 400hp is stretching it on stock ports so it would be more like 350. With a full turbo upgrade you will need turbo, manifold, wastegate, engine management, injectors, pump, (I recomend a rebuilt engine), oil feed and return lines (on a bb turbo you will need water feed and return lines) and, a downpipe fabed for your turbo and flange. If you want to take on this project go for it and have fun with the end results as it will be fun
