An important question not being asked here is how the power is delivered. What is the main type of driving you intend to use your car for. The answers to these questions will better help you to select the right turbo for you. Just my opinion.

i'm assuming that you have the apex single turbo, was it complete (besides not having a bov)? what are some of your other mods, especially fuel mods?

Something doesn't sound right with your setup. You might want to look into further tuning. I am hitting 122 mph with the stock turbos- sequential, stock engine and stock injectors. This is about as fast as I can go right now.....need more fuel. Obviously I have all the usual mods. I was surprised to read a single turbo car running only 124 mph, what were your 60 ft and 8th mile times??

I have a T-78, and it starts to really pick up ABOVE 15 PSI. That's not the greatest thing for the street, but it's still fun. I've been in cars with smaller turbos and they drive much better on the street.
