Troubles Finding the Right Turbo
 
So I've been searching the past week or so and finally settled on the T3 .42 .48 a/r 50 trim turbo from Godspeed (Rev9 made). I ordered it, and was emailed today that it is on backorder with no ETA as to when it when be available again. So now I am on the hunt again. Before you flame me for not searching the forums, I have already read several threads, which led me towards Braineacks T3 50 trim.

My power goal is near 250whp on my stock 1.8 VVT. I'm not looking for something on the EFR level, just something to have fun on the streets with. I also don't want something completely terrible that doesn't build boost til 6k. The closest thing I've come across so far has been the CXRacing T3 with the .42 and .63 a/r but I can't find any info on the compressor and exhaust turbines. I'm really not looking to spend $800 on a new Garrett or something. Thanks

Go check the MKTurbo thread.
Use one of those. Maybe Lars (shuiend) even has a spare he can sell you

Alright, will do. It would make sense as to why they are on backorder haha. Thanks a lot

I believe you emailed me a bit ago. I don't freely give out where I get the turbo from any more, as supply is scarce and I much rather keep them for my customers. But for $1500 I can give you the source and provide one for you, along with a manifold and full exhaust. I can tell you to check sonofthehill's build thread. He has that larger turbo and run 12's in the quarter mile with it.

It is going to be amazing to run 14s with a 6258 when he has magic fingers to get into the 12s

I'm definitely interested. And the $1500 doesn't include oil lines, correct?
