Best Upgraded Turbo Opinions

I searched for this topic and was not able to find anything, if you could point me in the direcion of something like this I would be grateful.

Otherwise, I am interested in upgrading to a new turbo. I would really like to hear some opinions on what other people have, whether they would recommend it or not, and some specifications of the turbo (what RPM the turbo spools at and other relevant information). Thanks everyone in advance.

There is no best turbo out there, but if you want the best turbo for your application then start by listing what the car will be used for, your power goals, single or twin if you have a preference, etc... Then people with specific setups can tell you their experiences.

My goal is eventually 400 rwhp, What are some of the tradeoffs of seqential versus single, besides quicker spool. Thanks again for ur input.

If your goal is 400rwhp, you most likely won't do that with a sequential setup. You either need to be non-seq or a single.
