Couple things I have on my setup that I would have wanted differently so want to make a good choice for my new turbo... Read all 7 pages of the new Holset turbos, Im personally interested in the s362... Another turbo on my mind is the FP Red... I want to stick with the mitsu housing for a couple seasons, I just ordered a dnp mani with tial 38mm wg not too long ago..My goal is 130+ plus traps on c16.. Which of these 2 would you guys go with?

Mod list in case- Scm5252e,750cc(950cc coming soon), walbro 255lph hp, aeromotive fpr, hks 272/272 cams, duel tech springs, 1g head, ross pistons, eagle rods, dsmlink, cop, sbr intake mani, dnp tubular exhaust mani, tial 38mm wg

dont know much about holset turbos, but i do know of a few fp's that have been packing powerhouse numbers and have been very reliable. so my opinion is go with the fp. good looking dragger man.

Either way Bullseye or FP Turbos are both very good. The holset is really only a good option if you are on a budget. If you are looking for something a little nicer and have a little more money to spend you can get a much better turbo than a holset for your goals.
 
Thanks for the replies, I just got off the phone with a good friend of mine whos building a monster 1g gsx... Hes going to give a s366 with bullseye housing a try, which is bigger than the s362 I believe... I gave him your number Wayne... Ive decided Im going to wait to see how he does since hes a local and Im going to get a good review before I make my next turbo choice.. Only if there was someone with a Red in town hehe..... Im going to try to max this pte 60-1 out and hopefully by then Ill be 100% positive about which turbo to go with!
