Working up a build on a L76 6.0... I need some opinions on Turbo selection. It will be a single front mounted turbo. Probably located in the stock air box location (Pontiac G8).

2.5" Hot side, T6 Flange, 44mm WG... Trying to keep a budget but select a turbo that will spool reasonably well and be capable of decent power levels (800+). Any thoughts or real world experience on the ones below?

S400SX75 (1.32ar, 96mm, T6)

Garret GT76 (1.23, 94mm, T6)

Turbonetics T76

Turbo5.0

Do the S400!

The 400 is quite a bit bigger than the other two. The turbonetics being the smallest. A lot of people run into a space issue with the BW turbos

would the turbonetics be better for a twin setup on the 6.0L?

Any of those turbos should make 800+HP on a 6.0. BW stuff is great for the price if it fits... It was a chore stuffing an s400 into my engine bay. Either of the two smaller turbos mentioned would have made install much easier.

Here is a good comparison....
