Ok guys the motor will be done in a few days and I still dont have a turbo. I was gonna go with the evoIII 16g ported w/ oversized flapper, but Im not sure if its best. My mods are as follows:
aem fuel rail fic 650cc injectors walbro 255 high pressure 3" gm mas mafs translator apexi s-afc II pace setter header the necessary gauges ngk bpr7es plugs rebuilt and "broke-in" motor ( i will beak in the motor before I go putting all this on, of course) I dont plan on upgrading anything else for a long while so I prolly will get the EIII16g. I just didnt know if there was something better around the same money. The turbo is going to end up costing $692.00 from extremepsi.com LMK what you guys think. -------------------- "One of the most Crazy and Undecisive Members in central Illinois"

Why are you going to "break in" the motor before modifying it???

What's your budget? If you have the $ I'd recommend a 3052 or like from forced performance. Otherwise an EVO3 16g would work fine.

well the 3052 sounds like a hell of a turbo but my wallet dont like the pricetag. So I think for now Im going to just get the EIII16g and see what I can do with that.

Plus I have always heard to break in the motor in stock spec for atleast 500 miles before doing anything different. Just to be safe this is how Im going about it. -------------------- "One of the most Crazy and Undecisive Members in central Illinois"
