Perfect Turbo

I currently have an STS with the 60-1 turbo (no *****). I definatley want to step it up. With the mods I have in my sig, what turbo would probably suit me best. It will be driven frequently. I have heard of the gt67r but thats about it for the rear mounts, any ideas???

t70, t76? why not go a little bigger and have room for down the line. t76 should still spool good.

Also, I have 42lb injectors on a 1998(pcm). If I start going bigger, what supporting mods will be needed?

42 pound injectors and 98 pcm should be an issue at 7-8 psi. You should be good to 550 or so whp, but those injectors will be about maxed then id guess.
