Hey guys I have a scm5252e 60-1 turbo externally gated off the manifold... Looking for easy mid to high 11s.... Wanted to do it with this turbo but I was told its harder with the mitsu exhaust housing... I want the fp3065 but I already have the dnp tubular exhaust manifold with the tial wg already. Does fp offer a fp3065 with wg on manifold? What turbo do you guys recommend? Also thinking of getting the bolt on pte gt35r turbo if I decide to stick with the mitsu housing...
 
Fp turbos have mitsu exhaust housings too and you have to mount the wastegate on the o2.

Mid to high 11s is DEFINITELY doable with a 60-1.

Save your cash, keep the same turbo, get some good tuning tools (dsmlink and wideband) and crank the boost up if you want to run 11s.

Tuning is the KEY.

ps: get some cams to increase airflow/power.
