Default What turbo is best for me? rear mount, 408.

Well guys, I will be running a TSP forged 408, 9.5/1 comp. ported PRC heads, and a decent F/I cam.

What turbo is best for me?

My rear mount system (all charge piping) is modded to take advantage of a much larger turbo. built auto trans, will be running a 323 gear, and a quick spool. tc78? pt88? What turbo should I pull the trigger on?

BW 80mm is the biggest you can go with a divided housing and it's on the small side for a 408. Forced inductions told me they have a 92mm turbine available and a new 81mm wheel that flows a bit more than most 88mm's. I'd go with that personally.

Stay away from the TC78 for sure, great turbo for a smaller motor but not nearly enough for a built 408.

Thanks for the info a lot guys, I am pretty lost when it comes to choosing a turbo for this new build at this many cubes. Im on a bit of a budget, but those forced induction units are very nice.
