You need to be more specific. For starters, what car do you have? Is it an FC, FD sequential twins, FD single, 20b swap, etc?

This or the Garrett GTX. But whats your plan with the car? Tracking it, 1/4 Warrior or daily. Stay within factory spool times or more safe boost later?

Without being rude , a bit of research will help you found the turbo to your needs

Looks like by your questions you're not too sure of what you want

Let's begin by what do you have in your car?
