I've been stuck in the world of 14b's and evo 16 g's ever since i've been introduced to cars...within in the next 4 weeks i'm going to purchase a big silly turbo. I'm kind of new to that realm of turbos.

I will acquire whatever supporting mods are needed.

My goal is something that will slap me easily into the 12 second club with a lot of room to push the car to even lower times with proper set up and tuning. The goals I have for the car is mainly a track car, that is streetable. By streetable I mean that Ihave a dd, I wold just like to occasionally take the car out around town and romp on it. I know it is hard to set up a car with two goals in mind, but I enjoy autocrossing almost as much as I enjoy drag racing. The set up will slightly favor the drag strip.

money is absolutely no issue. I know i'm looking at dropping a couple of grand on just the trubo. I've been hearing ball bearing and 50-60 trim.

I've looked around at the information, but am relatively lost, and would appreaciate getting straightforward information from trustworthy members of the board who have personal experience with larger turbos.

if you need anymore information about what i want in a trubo, just ask, ihope i provided enough information.

thanks in advance.

I seem to have lost the website but someone in the private side of NABR did some testing on flow numbers on a rediculous amount of turbos. The EVO 16g turned out flowing nearly the exact same as the 20g up to around 22psi and spooled a whole lot quicker.

If I were to go with a street driven car that goes 12's on a bad day, probably 11's on a halfway decent day I'd preobably go with an Fp green. I have a friend that will have his 3065 on his dd in a couple of weeks then I could tell you have drivable that is but the green should be plenty of turbo and spool well too.
