if you are worried about response the gt35 isnt really the choice to go unless you plan on a 600+hp motor



you should specify your goals before we give you ideas on what turbo to go with



if your goals are like 300hp, id say go with a disco potato



anything higher and id probably go with a gt3076r if i ABSOLUTELY wanted a ball bearing turbo, me? ill stick with holsets









lag = traction

Not news: Learning something every day

News: from faith!



lag=traction mind=blown I never thought of it that way before, but in a car with trouble keeping traction with stock power this is a huge deal.

Def go with a disco potato. You'll be much happier than a GT35
