Re: best turbo?
I'd go with an 82mm off of ebay.
They're pretty inexpensive and can move tons of air, eh.

Re: best turbo?
ya seriously, use your search button.
Go to our vendors and look around. Get a stageII from Mike Lee at RPM and be done with it. It's more turbo that you need right now, but won't be shitty on the street until you grow into it.

Re: best turbo?
You will not like a 20G turbo w/a stock torque converter. Too much lag.
Your heavy foot will be needed to get a 14 CM housing to spool that turbo quickly.

Re: best turbo?
The problem with chosing turbos is that, their isn't much Data showing which turbo is best for your build. Not many people post up statistics showing that a Turbo helped them make more power. Example " I bought a 67mm turbo and with a custom tune, I lost 1 second on my 1/4 mile time"
Before I would spend close to a $1k, I would want to see what a Turbo will do for me in the 1/4 mile with a proper tune. I want to upgrade my stocker soon, and when the time comes, I will be posting a thread to see what would be my best option for my build and goals.

I have a TD06 10cm housing I put on my stock turbo when my cat clogged up and I removed it. I think a TD06H 10cm, TD06 12cm, and TD06H 12cm all exist, but I'm not 100% sure.

Re: best turbo?
Do you know what the 12cm exhaust housing was used on? Maybe it will help in my search.

Re: best turbo?
I see the Co in Australia sells the 60-1 turbo comes w/a 12 CM housing ,maybe they could sell just the housing to you?
Might be worth a shot?
I got mine from a memebr here on the forum & he got it really cheap on Ebay brand new, $100 IIRC?

Re: best turbo?
I found out he only sells this for a 12 CM housing: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Turbine-...ccessories&hash=item415cd94c1c#ht_2021wt_1139
So you would need to run an external wastegate.

Re: best turbo?
I do not think the Mitsubishi 12 CM turbine housing ever were made that will fit an "H" wheel.
They (12 CM housing) are made to fit a stock sized Sy/Ty turbine wheel.
So if any of you guys want a 12 CM turbine housing for your stock turbo, it will bolt right on.
I had to machine the one I got to fit an "H" wheel.
They are pricey, see if Hahn will sell it for any less, because that's the one you would need & it does not hurt to ask.
I had to also open up the entry on the turbine housing to match the Stock Sy manifold, it was really small.
