What is the best turbo for my FD

Which turbo you all I think I should get? I'm looking at a FD right now and I'm almost positive I'll be getting it. The guy has a two peter ferrell turbos, which on this Fd, generate to 360 full boost. I'm looking for a good single turbo kit. My HP that I'am aiming for is at least 450HP or 400. I'm not that big of a spender, so try not on giving me expensive turbos. I really don't want to exceed $3500 dollars just for my turbo. I would appreciate if you would also send me a link to the sites where you would think I should get the turbo. Thanks!!!

Do a search. A turbo depends on a lot of factors, one of them is you. Also it not only a turbo what is needed but a lot more to control the turbo, boost and fuel needed.

Make a search around the board, you will find some useful tips and tricks

Just do what everyone says and search.

There is no one "best" turbo, simply better for certain applications. What exactly do you wanna do with your FD? Drag car? Road/Track car? Street car? Street car with the occasional trip to the strip?

I know about everything else I need to get with my turbo. I just wanted some ideas. I'm not looking to do drag racing or even really go into racing. I might race a few in the streerts, but fot the most part I'm a daily driver who just wants a good ride.

IMO, a few of the best turbos for a street car would be either a GT35/40, an RX6 or the BNR stage 3's. All great turbos with lots of decent power and fairly quick spool times, so they wont be too laggy while driving. I'd say they're all good for 400rwhp. Just search for each turbo and you'll find the answers you need to make your final decision.

Keep in mind that these are my opinions on the best turbo, and there are others you can consider.
