blew-turbo need help to choose new one!

[djsm21]

i bought a 1990 eagle talon fwd tubo with a blown turbo. I bought it from a friend with 3inch exhaust, fuel pump, avc-r and intake and the car needs a new turbo. I plan on adding lots of mods to the car but all i want to know is what is the best reliable turbo that is good for the mods i got now and when i add more mods in the future. what im tryen to say is that i want a turbo that can handle power now and then handle the power later when i mod the car even more and . my goal is low to mid 12. please help me choose my turbo thanks.

Read this first then ask again. 12s in a fwd car is tough.

i got money that's no big deal im going to add lots of mods after i pick what turbo to get. all im asking is what turbo should i get that would be good for later use when i mod the talon thats all im asking. i dont want to buy a turbo then have to buy another turbo later because wont be able to handle the power when i add more mods. in a couple of months the car should have everything that u can do to mod the car just need to know what turbop whould be best for 12sec 1/4. money is no issue just need a turbo that will get me into mid to low 12 that it.

Duhh!! What was I thinking...

There was a guy on the Mutt yahoo groups that had a FWD 2G. I found the post.


From yahoo group... Mutt Turbos

Hi, I am that guys with the FWD 2G. I was going to wait to post until I had gotten some time to write up a full review, but since people are asking, I ran a 12.3 at 120 mph (first one was a 12.6). I've only had a chance to do two runs with the new turbo, and got bad wheel spin both times, but perfect shifting the second time, I need to re-learn how to launch and get an LSD (60 foot was 2.3). Anyway, i have 660 cc injectors, AVC-R, AFC, Apex Front mount I.C., Apex N1 exhaust, Victory Perf. O2 housing (WG back into exhaust), ported manifold, 1g intake mani, head, and Throttle body, ACT 2600, upgraded rods, and BFG Drag Radials. I am sure that I am forgetting some other stuff, but that is about it, like I said, I have not had much time at the track, since I didn't get the turbo very long ago. Let me get some more time with the turbo, and I will write a full review. So far though, i am very happy.

One of our customers, Eric Dunlap, just went 11.95 on the AGP L2R with his FWD 2G on drag radials.
