Hey guys I'm need some input from everyone. To make a long story short my turbo is on its way out. I want to keep my top mount set up and stay with a t3/t4 flanged turbo. I do plan on running up to 15-18 psi when tuned correctly. My bottom end has been built, so motor wise I'm sure everything is ready. Now here is my question, what does everyone think would be a good turbo for 320 + hp ? I wont be doing any serious drifting or anything, just wanna have some fun in it. Sizes, A/R's, experiences lets hear it. Thanks

Yeah, probably the best bang for the buck as far as T3 hotside flange is concerned if you can handle an external wastegate setup.
