Blowzilla vs. 60-1 vs. T-66 vs T04R

Looking for a nice street setup on a street ported engine 13B-REW. Between 400-450whp at 15-17psi with quick spool. Housing is tubular with 12" equal length runners but nondivided.

The blowzilla is the one sold at cheapturbo.com

I've found a very good deal on a T-66 BB but have heard some questionable things about Turbonetics BB's, especially with a dry center housing.

Quick spool is more important that high HP but I'd like at least 400whp at 15psi on 93 pump gas. I'd give up some response for a turbo that doesn't die off at the top end. i was hinkign a .84 divided housing since eventually i'll go divided (might even modifiy my current manifold to be fully divided).

If cost wasn't an issue I'd go with a GT35RT4, but unfortunatey it is. I'd say $900 is my max (T04R may be a bit outside this).

You can get a T04R for around $900, it would be a Garrett turbo to HKS specs.

try Blouch Turbo in Lebanon, PA www.blouchturbo.com

i have one form him, awesome dude, and awesome customer service

I'm running a 1.15 hot side, i see 12 psi @3800-4000 rpms, HP unknown for now

I say to4z or that ball bearing t66. Pt67 wouldn't be a bad choice either. Maybe one of the experts will chime in, or someone with a turbo they have for sale.

yeah, everyoen thinks the turbo they have for sale is perfect for me lol. well I'm not totally set in what I'm looking for, so a good deal could win me over.

possibly a PT-63 may be in the running too

I made 374rwhp with a blown 60-1. The specs on it was a T04b compressor side, and .84 a/r divided. Spool is quick, full boost around 3500rpm. I got it rebuilt recently and I know I'm making close if not 400rwhp based on the cars I've beaten (from a roll I may add). I am on stock ports too.

oh btw, my single turbo kit, with custom tubular manifold, down pipe, and Tial wastegate will be up for sale shortly. The turbo has about 500 miles on it. Let me know if you'd be interested.

I've gone with the T66, so I'm no longer looking for a turbo. Thanks.
