I'd look at the GTX Garrett Billet gt3582R's.

I have a billet upgrade for the 35Rs. They flow high 70s lb/min, and should produce 125-150 hp more per turbo, and love high pressure.

The GTX wheels were not designed for performance, from what Ive been told. They do perform marginally better, but they stuffed another blade in the wheel, which restricts airflow. They were designed for diesels and keeping them quiet.

Did you get my pm on the other site about upgrading yours to the Billet HTA 3586's. I went with the 3586 over the GTX3582R for the TT Camaro. According to the Garrett catalog the GTX3582 is good up to 750HP.

If not I can sell you two Garrett GT-76's. I was going to use one in the Silverado but was told it was too small(turbine wheel) so I pulled the other one off the Hemi and was going to use both on the Silvy and just buy a bigger(GT-91) one for the Hemi.
