Cheapest....reliable....and best?? Come on man this is such a broad topic. We know nothing about what you'd like to achieve, we dunno how much your willing to spend. All you're saying is to name you turbos.

The only thing I can be sure about without knowing all the info I said is that a good and reliable turbo will not be cheap.

And DO NOT go with an ebay turbo because you feel it's the same as a garrett turbo since they look the same tsk tsk

You're going to have to cough up the cash for a good turbo, if you don't like it then quit.

There's all kinds of turbos to choose from, T25, T28 T3...etc

sorry for the incomplete info.....

i currently have greddy manifold, 740cc nismo injectors, z32 maf, chipped ecu to match and want to or trying to achieve around 350hp....

i can either go t25, t28, t3, or t4.....

when i say cheap, i dont mean around $300. i mean a fair amount for the turbo. i know i will be paying more, but just in general....

it will be a daily driver too so thats why i want it to be reliable...

if its top mount now what flange is on the manifold?t3? because that will narrow down what turbos you can run. unless you get a new manifold as well.

well, i have two manifolds. one is a t3, t4 and the other is a t25/stock flange.

Only 350hp, just go with a 2871R or 3071R. Go with the T3 version of either one though. The T2 housing just creates too much backpressure compared to the T3 housing. ATPTurbo.com is where you need to be.

cool, thanks for the tip...

whats the average price range for those turbos?

[Sileighty_85]

T2 Version is fine, this way you can use the same manifold and elbow you have now.2871R .64 will put you around 350 dependin on mods.

My husbands put down 363whp on mustang dyno with stock camshafts and intake manfold

2871R will cost you around $1,000 or buy a used for a little less.
