Blown 60-1, what to go with now?

Well my Turbonetics 60-1 is burning oil and I want to replace it with something with a little better response and the possibility to make a little more power. The plan is to go standalone in the future but for now I will be sticking with my Rtek 2.1 with the 1000cc and 720cc injectors. The turbo was ptrim .81 on a HKS log mani.

The dyno sheet was on the stock ports. I am now on a streetport.

I think both options might be a little much for my setup. I think I might be going with a pt6266.

The 6266 wouldnt be a bad choice. I would also consider an S360 or 35R.

I have the garrett 60-1 and when mine blows, I plan to drop in the GT CHRA. They make GT cartridges for the T series housings now.

Stay away from Precision. I would go with a 60 series Borg Warner. What are your power goals and use of the car? I'm here to help...
