Ok so heres what happening I'm in the process of swapping an rb26dett into my convertible. I've order cams and cam gears and a bunch of other goodies for it but now I want to upgrade the turbo or turbos. what i'm looking at right now is upgradeing to a single turbo style since with the LHD using larger twins is harder to do. however i'm at a stand still on what turbo set up to use I want something thats going to have as quik of spool as I can get. I enjoy being fast off the line but I still want the power of the larger turbo. Money isint a huge option but of course as always lets keep it as cheap as possible as for my HP wants I haveint really set a bar yet so anything you can think of throw it my way thanks

so you want power and a quick spool? lol anything else while your asking?

you need to decide on a power goal, and what you are doing with the car (strip, road race, drift, etc). then we can help. till then a turbo upgrade can mean eleventybillion different turbos.

If u do go big make sure you get a ball bearing turbo so it doesn’t take long to spool up.

yeah I really need to find a power range but I jsut can't decide at the moment I care more about quick spool but Is till would like some power to back it up but mainly quick spool. I want my car to be quick straight I don't care as much about drifting etc etc but I do enjoy road raceing such as autocross etc etc
