If you don't have a grand or more to spend, go with a stock RB turbo. I have a RB25 turbo with out an actuator. You could slap yours onto it and have a decent little upgrade.

If I were you!! I wouldn't slap any turbo except for the RB25 turbo on without a Tuned ECU.

The car would also run better with the RB25 and tuned ECU.

You could get that RB25 turbo for a decent price then chip the ecu and get some rx7 injectors all for under a thousand.

Awesome response, but its not gonna destroy a vette anytime soon though.You could probably get like 275whp with that setup.

Check out SAU they have a dyno vs setup thread.
