thats a tough one. I would say A bb tc76 would be the only thing i know off. They make great power for there size, and spool real quick which is why so many people use/love them.

Turbonetics GTM-76 or 78mm would make big power

I do not see a PTE 76 spooling quicker sorry, it will make more power though.

Yeah, didn't know if his was a divided flange or not.

I'm waiting on Linxs to post up after he gets his new housing. That V6 is gonna be a rocket

I also don't think there is turbo that will outspool a TC76 only the BB version and even that doesn't help much.

A 50-75 shot of NOS will do wonders on the spool time!

We have tried all the 76's pretty much. Love both the 76GTS and the TC76. Nothing touches the TC76 on spool up....period. We love the 76GTS though also since it does make more peak power. We sell both and love both turbos. They just have their advantages and disadvantages depending on your application.
