I'm looking for a good turbo upgrade for my '91. I am running a Haltech but I don't have any porting. I do have a huge, overkill front-mount greddy intercooler.
I was looking at one of the kits (the cheapest one from HKS is $2,000 see it at http://66.216.67.51/product.asp?0=220&1=314&3=475). I was wondering is a kit the best way to go or should I make my own setup.
The hitman said that the turbo I should be running is:
"If you really want some more power from your 13B engine , then the best way of doing it is to install a larger turbo. A good sized T04 turbo will add incredible amounts of power , and added reliability through reduced heat load. Look for a T04 with a P-Trim exhaust and 1.0 or 1.15 A/R , and a 60-1 compressor in an A/R 0.70 cover. Running the same amount of boost you should expect around 30% gains in power !" this is found at http://www.hitman.hm/13BHints.htm.
Any feedback is much appreciated. Also where I could buy whatever your recommendation as well as manifolds etc. If a kit is the best way to go, what is the best one to get and where is the cheapest place to get it.

The compressor side is just to large for the exhaust side, thats why the hybrids max out WAY lower than a real deal T04B 60-1. I am sure you will see an increase over the stock turbo but it won't be an increase like you would see with a full 60-1. The best Hybrid I have ever felt on a TII was a -24 TO4B wheel in a stock housing with a stock clipped exahust wheel, it seem to be a very matched pair. Dale Clark ran this turbo for a bit a few years ago and the car was pretty damn fast for a stock appearing turbo.

In case anyone is considering my question, here are some of my mods (And by Haltech, I mean E6K with terminated harness):
