for around 450 to 500 hp, which turbo do you guys think is better with the quickest spool. i heard the HKS is better but the Trust has more power. any help? Also, is getting a kit better than gettin just the turbo seperately?

I think that the HKS-GTRS is more of what you want. IMO, one of the better turbo's on the market today if you can afford it. But, for your power goals, I think the GTRS might peak out at 375-400hp. With the T67, you can easily attain 400hp, but since the turbo size is quite large, spool up time is a biatch. Don't quote me on this, but I think that with the T67, you will have to get a different exhaust mani to bolt it on unlike the GTRS, which has a t25 flange. Both are excellent turbo's but because of the quicker spool up, I would go with the GTRS. That's the one I'm gettin.....:ylsuper

I am leaning toward the GT-RS as well, but I also do not think that it will get you to 450-500hp. You are going to need something more like a GT35R for that.

The GT-RS is basically something that is bolton and can get you to about 400hp with suplemental mods.

i also say the gtrs just for the sake of simplicity, bolts right on, and no need to top mount your turbo and redo intercooler piping and all that other stuff....

I don't think the GT-RS is capable of your horsepower goal, however, it is a very quick spooling turbo, capable of about 400 hp. The t67 would be a lag monster, but will get you to your goal. With the t67, you'd need to modify your downpipe and get a new manifold, which I believe greddy provides. I am sure that there are quicker spooling turbos for that range, but I'm not sure. Maybe GT35R? HKS 3037? Top Secret makes a t51 turbo kit which should spool quicker and is rated at more than you want.

If that is your hp goal, and you want something that spools quickly, I'd suggest neither of the 2 turbos you mentioned. There are quicker spooling turbos that would be more suited for your goal.

T51R? that's overkill for 400hp, something like a t67 would work well, if your concerned about lag invest in a 2-step system, no more lag.

Yeah a T51R is comparible to a T88...big time over kill...

The t51r is comparable to the t88, but Top Secret's kit utilizes a t517 turbine from Trust, not HKS. The T517 is smaller than the t51r (any in the HKS line up) I do not know the specs on it, but it did make over 500 if I recall. I'm not saying to get this as top secret is in some trouble right now, but it was a suggestion. An HKS 28XX will probably do the job. My point was there are many turbos to choose from. The t67 will get the you hp, but there are turbos that could spool quicker and get the same hp. The GT-RS is an awesome turine, but it might not get you to your goals.

Yeah, i'm not thinking the 28XX is going to get the job done either. You are going to have to go to something like a GT35R or a 3042. I think that you may could get there with a 3037 or 3037s, but you would have to tweak and do some/alot or dyno tuning.

My mistake, I was going on what someone told me, but when I checked it out, you are right. Sorry.

I'm sure garett has some nice turbos that could get you 500hp like the gt3040?

e-mail the guys at full-race.com they'll piece together a turbo for your application. I've heard nothing but praise about full-race

I will be going with the t518z sound similar to what your are after the signal drift cars use them rated teh same as the 2835r pro.I have driven an sr with a 3037's made great power full boost around 5000 rpm spooling for around 4 k rpm the t518z full boost buy around 4500 not sure but I will know in a month or 2 when mine gets fitted :) also go at least 740 cc injecotrs 550 would be right on their limit and z32 afm if your keeping it. a friend has a t51 kai on his sr purely a dyno queen and drag car full boost around 6 k rpm. made close to 500 hp @ the wheelsa vid of the car doing a dyno run with the t51 r kai

cams also healp heaps with power at least 264's and preferably 272's with the soildlifter and rocker stoppers for reliablity. a tougher bottom end should be factored in down the track.meggala

only 500hp with a T51R KAI? I know a guy over here going the same route, he's shooting for around 700hp.
