hey guys,

Coming home from the mall yesterday my big 16g went. I am interested in maybe upgrading to a slightly better turbo but dont really wanna change all my other supporting mods. And i am really not sure what turbos would go with my current setup? so if you guys could give me your opinion would help out alot. Its a daily driver so a streetable turbo would be best.

my current mods are:
big 16g ported and polished, apex fmic,rc 550's, walbro 255lph, apex n1 catback, catco high flow cat, injen filter+RRE intake pipe,apex n1 downpipe, apex s-afc, greddy egt w/peak and warning, autometer phantom boost gauge and air fuel, proted exhaust mani and o2, extreme upper pipe, greddy type s BOV, extreme MBC, hks timer, AEM crank pulley

oh ya i have a 98 gst.

thanks alot guys
 
I would recommed going bigger, lag is your friend with FWD. I just upgraded from a b16g to a 50 trim well worth it imo. Make sure if you are going bigger though to have the supporting mods as well.

20g size range is what your looking for. :thumb:
 
Forced Performanc was upgrading t 18G's for $420. which is a great deal. It's like a baby 20G, with a 2mm smaller inducer. Check them out and maybe call and see what Robert will do for you. mark
 
They were doing that to TD 05 12a's from Starions a while back. Again I say call Robertand see what he will/can do. Of course the shaft must be good/reuseable. mark
