Ok So I just got done rebuilding the CA. Its now nearly a 2.0 with a built bottom end etc the works. Anyways time to upgrade the turbo. I was looking at two different turbo's. A garret t3 super 60 with the super 60 trim and a .48 A/R exhaust side or a garret t3/t04e super 50 trim and .48 A/R exhaust side. I use the car for drifting so I need the quick spool but I dont want to loose a lot of my top end either. So yeah let me know what you think. BTW I was thinking about ordering the turbo from turbocalculator.com and I checked some of the previous threads about them on here but I couldnt really derive wether they are a good dealer or not. Let me know. Thanks!

If you buy a T3/T4, make sure you opt for the 360 thrust bearing. Go with a Precision Turbo if you can. I know their 50-trims are around $750.
