The jspec s15 turbos are a good deal, and are cheap also.

JWT sport 500's are pretty decent and cost efficient, about 1900 bucks plus core charge, or for 1000 dollars more, you can upgrade to the JWT 530BB, if money isnt too big of deal. For install your gonna have to pull the motor, depends on where you take it but its probably going to be around 1000?

as GAZ32 said... JWT makes high quality products... and HKS makes great products too... you might want to check into some of their turbos.

Go with the 530BB, They are the most streetable turbo upgrades for the Z. You are going to want to get new exhaust and intake, etc if you don't already have it all.

I'm partial to the HKS ball bearing turbo kits but they're pricey

Sport 530BB's, but get the manifolds too. To go with any upgraded turbos, you need good downpipes and at least 2.5" exhaust to realize their full potential. Lots of $$$ but lots of power.

530BB have almost no lag at all, its really something. Make sure you have the goodies to back it up, because what good is a turbo if it isn't efficient?
