You could go get a turbo out of a semi truck. They're huge. If your lucky you could get spooled by the time your engine blows up.

your question is too vague. pretty much any turbo can be made to fit any car.. it's all about how much money you want to spend and if you have the supporting mods to go with the turbo...

i think it would be better to decide on how much power you want to make and then ask which turbo(s) would be good at achieving that power.

there like bigger than my head lol but i dun think our little cars could produce enough pressure to spoil them, unless were at like 7,000rpms near cut off lol the manifold would have so much weight on it, ud crack the block lol

My buddy has a diesel turbo in his office. Its about 2ft in diameter... its rediculous.. We powder coated it and polished it, so its all shiny.
