What is your motor setup? I would like to pick up a FWD Performance stage 3 g-head and a similar turbo. I'm not sure if a GT35R would be too big. This would be for drag racing. Have you maxed out your turbo yet?

You can do a little reading about his setup here...

I am too. Same turbo as *valves. Lots of modifications to get it to work though.

I'm running one of the smaller ones. GT2871R. Maps read similar to a super 60 but spoolup is better than a mitsu. I agree with turbo joe, so far I'm still fine tuning mine. The Gt2871R blows a signifigant amount of air @ idle on the 2.5L. Probably not a good choice for a full drag vehicle though. On a side note when shopping for the Dbb turbos be aware that some of them have no provision for a chrysler flange. At least I couldn't find any as of march 2006.
The ones sold by FWD & turbos unleashed are a little different animal. They are Dbb turbos but they have some sort of top secret exhaust scroll & niether place would share much info about it with me. Chris told me I would have to purchase the whole turbo, he couldn't just sell me the scroll with the chrysler flange. I wasn't building my combo to accept the larger GT35s they sell.
