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.

is there a direct bolt on ball bearing turbo? I dont think so but figured id ask.

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

Just go easy on the boost for a while until the rings seat.

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.

I dont trust myself. 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.

evo 3 16g is a bad ass turbo i loved it

I remember how well it worked for you and Hopefully I can achieve that and then some. WHich most likely I will!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see where your coming from, but you don't break in a race engine at stock spec before running it.

I was trying trying to save you a lot of work.
