Default Perfect Turbo

I currently have an STS with the 60-1 turbo (no *****). I definatley want to step it up. With the mods I have in my sig, what turbo would probably suit me best. It will be driven frequently. I have heard of the gt67r but thats about it for the rear mounts, any ideas???

t70, t76? why not go a little bigger and have room for down the line. t76 should still spool good.

Also, I have 42lb injectors on a 1998(pcm). If I start going bigger, what supporting mods will be needed?

42 pound injectors and 98 pcm should be an issue at 7-8 psi. You should be good to 550 or so whp, but those injectors will be about maxed then id guess.

347 is far from the perfect motor and the sts is far from the perfect setup

Never said it was the perfect motor, or perfect turbo kit. He just wants to upgrade the turbo on what he has, which a t76 would work alot better then his small 60
