as the title says which turbo should i go with, wanna upgrade from the 9.8 pea shooter that i have

1. TME
2. IX
3. JDM IX RS

help me out guys

 

Well, which of these is readily available?

 

i can get either one in about a week or so, just needed opinions

 

The RS has a special turbo that the other JDM versions don't have?

- I don't recommend any JDM IX turbo if it's magnesium, since those have been blowing up.
- The IX is more powerful than the regular TME
- The TME may spool more quickly and have a flatter torque curve
- Or how about a TME IX?

We can't provide a suggestion without knowing what you want.

 

Where can you get the JDM IX RS?

 

Where can you get the JDM IX RS? And how much is each turbo you are considering?

 

im looking for quick spool, as well as more power, IF thats possible.

TME IX? how much are those going for? any info on that would be appreciated

 

i have a friend that can get me any of these turbos easily, just wanted some info before i make my decision

the TME and the IX turbo are both $900
the JDM IX RS is $1500

now wartalon mentioned the TME/IX im curious about that one

 

how about buschur 20gLT?

 

Just stick with the IX turbo since it is "user friendly". It has been proven to make good power. And for the price, I think it provides the best performance to price ratio.

 

yeah I'm leaning towards the IX turbo, just wanted to hear everyone's opinion before I buy anything, but I'm curious about the TME IX that warrtalon mentioned

 

It's just a IX with TME internals - pretty simple. You get it from any turbo shop, I suppose (FP, Blouch, etc.). The IX should be $700 new, as should the TME. $900 is too high.

 

how much would the IX with TME internals run for? dont wanna get ripped off i dont see it anywhere either

 

It's not a common thing, so I don't know.

 

i wonder if blouch would custom build that for me....
