Default T67 vs T70 worth the upgrade?

I'm not sure how much power i'm making right now, but i put my T67 .81 p-trim back on. Forced Inductions has a T70 .68 p-trim for $600 and I was wondering if it would be worth the upgrade over the T67.

I'm pusing 12-13 psi on the 67 right now and love the way it spools. If i'm smart i'll just leave things alone since the car runs great (i'm usually not that smart though).

At what point am I out of turbo with the 67, i'm guessing 15 will be the max which is fine with me since my bottom end is still stock. I'd like to break 600 rwhp.

are you looking at the master power turbos? are those big enough to handle our engines? I would like to see a compressor map for one of those...if you know of where there is one at please let me know
Thanks

Purevil made 630rwhp/615rwtq @ 10psi with the MP T70.

The MP T70 is by far the best bang for the buck turbo. The only problem is wait times with the units. MP units come from Brazil, and thanks to idiots that caused the 9/11 disaster US customs now takes 3 times as long to release incoming shipments into the US.

it's a good bang for the buck, but is it worth the upgrade over the 67?

You might be close to 600 mark now with running 12-13psi. I would just max out what you have and then think about upgrading. As it sounds now your car is running like a beast.

It is running very well. I'm just curious if it's worth it to upgrade to a t70 or not. I'll probably just save up and go to a t76 p or q trim in the near future. That will go very good on my 370 thats in my future plans.

if i were you, if you plan on updgrading to a t76 turbo eventually, id just stick with what you got right now until you build your motor. Why buy a turbo 3 different times in such a short while?

Maybe the MP GT45? How well is that suited for a stock cube car though?

The MPGT45 is a great unit, especially with a 76mm wheel. Will out power a 76GTS, but will lag a touch more due to the larger A/R and slightly larger exhaust wheel.
