Thanks guys
 
my goals are around between 350 and 400 to the wheels, i want me car to be sick. I also want an internal wastegate, not an external one. if you don't think those goals are not practical for a daily driver, let me know, all i know is i want to get thrown into me seat hard. let me know your opions.
 
Well the EVO III 16G is rated at about 380 hp MAX. From the looks of your mod list you're headed in the right direction. If you can spend more money on a turbo, I'd go with a 20G or even better would be something ball bearing. I'm no pro on the ball bearing turbos though so someone else will have to chime in. But the EVO II 16G sound like it might be enough for you and they're very inexpensive.
 
20 g will definetly get u up to par with your goals, but i totally disagree with going 20g if youre car is daily driven. spoolup is around 3900 at the quickest (so i hear). also with the 20g youd be alot better off going external gate. i would say best streetable turbo would probably be evo3 16g. just my opinion. :dsm:

on the other hand if its a track car and weekend car.......... i would say 20g being the smallest, least power making turbo, 50 trim or an fp green. shop around and take your time making a decision. :dsm:
 
thanks for the input guys, i'm going to look into it more and make my desicion. anymore input is awesome, does anyone know of some good sites to get some info? thanks again
 
i have an fp green in my daily driver and it spools damn fast, even at 14 psi (boost leak) its a crazy ride
