I was looking into putting together a front mount turbo on my 98 Trans Am. However, there are so many options! So I was looking into Modular Turbos or Ky-turbo's front mount kits. Does everyone enjoy there KY-turbo setup and about how long did it take for it to be built?
Im looking to be able to make 550rwhp but if I can build my 402 I would like to make more. Is the TC76 turbo a good turbo for the street? Just trying to figure something out for the spring.

TC76 or TC78 is a great turbo for the street. Its is easily capable of 500+rwhp on a stock cube engine. The 408ci is gonna need more turbo.

You cannot go wrong with either company. Both offer great customer service. A couple years ago when i first was thinking about going turbo i emailed josh a couple times and he was always great to deal with, even though i never actually bought anything from him. His track record with actual customers speaks for itself, everyone seems to be more than happy. Same goes for modular turbo, i have nothing but positives to say about that company.
also, a 400+ci will need more than a tc76

What size turbo do people usually go with? Is ball bearing the best?
