Instead of buying the biggest turbo i can afford/get my hands on. I'd much rather get a turbo that best suites my modifications and spend the extra money on a wideband 02 or other ways of tuning. My mods are
big 16g, FMIC, 2.5turbo back, 550's, 2gmas, 2gmani, S-AFC, ACT2600, boost/egt gauge, fresh valve job.
I was thinking about a 20g, but a lot of people are telling me to go more towards the AGP L2, more or less a refined 20g with more power capabilites. For 950 comes ported, internal mani, and oil feed/return lines this is a tough competitor.
SBR has a nice unit but will cost me almost 200 more for internal gate/porting and doesn't come with oil lines.
Mutt has a good turbo as well, but starting at 1200, I don't think I'll be considering this turbo for more than a nanosecond.
And lastly I shouldn't forget the ole tried and trued 20g, port it clip it and bolt er on and she still makes great power and doesn't break the bank. I have a GVR4, just to let you know, I've heard problems about clearance with some turbos.
Whatever you think is best for me, please remember I don't want to over extend the ability of my supporting mods, unless maybe inj. Or perhaps I could just keep boost below a certain level.

An L2 is not a "refined 20G" that's one of the craziest things I've heard today. It's a completely different turbo. It has the 50 trim comp wheel which many believe, (including me) is the best wheel for a high hp street car. I say go for it...and cut it out with that refined 20G ####....
 
I agree, the AGP L2 should be a great turbo. If you wanna spend a couple hundred more Ill sell you my L2R though since Im looking to change as well.. Im lookin for 1250 for my turbo and all its goodies.
 
Why do you already want to sell your setup LarryD? What all does your 1250 asking price include?
