Definitely agreed I plan on seeing how far i can take my stock turbo to before getting another.

I've been told you can get into the 11's with a stock turbo you sure you need one that badly?

Generally you buy those kind of items as kits thus saving you a few bucks in fitment of the large turbos

Personally i'd just get the supporting goodies first push your car far as you dare that way, then if you get a bigger turbo it just makes your car that much quicker :P

The upcoming Buschur Racing 20G-9-5-LT, A.K.A., the Forced Performance EvoGreen turbo, looks like, at least early testing indicates, that it will be the bolt-on turbo to beat.

I think that it has already propelled a Dave Buschur shop car and Curt Brown's "streetable" car way down into the low 10's. It is, indeed, a true bolt-on turbo, which should only require a new compressor-to-intercooler pipe, in order to bolt right up to your Evo. Cost projection is $1700.
