Turbo Decision??

[eclipseturbo7]

Whats up guys. I just wanted to get an opinion on which turbo i should invest in. The 3 turbos that im debating on are the FP3065, t3/to4e, or the SBR GT12. This is gonna be a street/track car. Im looking for good spool up characteristic , and very strong top end pull. Let me know what would be a wise decision. Thanks

I would also like to know this. What else are you going to upgrade while upgrading the turbo?

i wanna keep the bottom end pretty much stock, i wanna upgrade, the fuel injectors, fuel pump, port exhaust manifold, apr studs, s afc, 1g rods, head, throttle body, and tune it.

If you profile is correct and all you have is an intake I suggest you sit down for a week and start reading. You need SO much to support any of those turbos. unless your profile is off I would say you are looking at 4-5 grand to support that turbo if you want to do it right.

It seems to me that last thing you possibly need to be considering right now is a 50 trim or a 3065

I agree with Woody wood, the FP3065 and SBR GT12 are turbos for putting you over the 400 hp mark. You need quite a few supporting mods for them trust me. I am doing a PTE GT3255 on my car right now and to make sure I am getting the most out of that turbo, I have had to upgrade quite a lot of stuff. As far as the T3/T04e goes, basically the turbo to get is a 50-trim but then again, supporting mods are needed. Do some more research and then see what you want to do. The EvoIII 16G is a badass turbo for a street car when done with the right mods. Something to think about. Just make a goal and then research what mods people have that are doing that goal.

yeah it doesnt seem like you are ready to run those type of turbos..They are very big and depending on ur mileage on ur car and put a fp3065 i dont think ur car will be very reliable with a stock motor. Yeah u need to research and get lots of supporting mods to run these big turbos. Maybe u would be better off with a evo 16g or something like that and it will work great with a stock motor..Hopefully
