Default Another "what turbo do i want" Thread.

here are my specs.
forged 346, 9:1 comp. ported 6.0 heads, 240/228 610/595 113 cam, 6 speed, 3100 lbs vehicle. capable fuel system.

heres what i want.
two turbos, 500-600 every day, useable, pump gas rwhp, with fast spool. would like to be able to get 750 or less HP, on fuel and alky.

i was looking at the PTE52, 53, 54 or the PT61

can anyone explain the differences in these? suggest somethign else in this price range, and tell me what AR ratios would be best?

thanks, and hooray for redundancy!

I'd probably go with my stock cam...or if you want to get one, something like the LPE GT7. Also heard the MTI stealth II is good for FI.
