Pump gas turbo choice
Hi everyone....I would like your opinions on which would be the best turbo for quarter mile times on 93 octane pump gas. I have full bolt ons (basically buschur stg 1-4). The turbos im comparing are the buschur gt35r cast manifold, buschur gt35hta cast manifol and/or the ams 50 trim bb kit. Please keep in mind this is on stock ecu and block. Your opinions are appreciated. Also I do plan on eventually dropping in rods and pistons but not until next year.

A couple of months ago, I would have said stock turbo but seeing what Buschur is doing with the HTA35 on pump, it has to enter the equation. Personally, I love the response from the stock turbo. Guys are also getting great results from the Green. Best advice: ride in car with different sized turbos or better yet, drive them if possible. Did not want you to feel like you're alone here. GL with your search.

Thank you, im leaning towards the hta but definitely curious as no one has used them on the cast mani yet nor stock block. I know that the am 50 trim has made over 420whp stock block and ecu on pump. I have not seen this from the green although green seems much stronger on meth.

50 trim will own a green on the same fuels..but the green has price on it.
i actually want some lag...prob something that spools in the 4500 range give or take 200 rpms.

Same here gamebred.....I prefer a little lag if it means more up top power. I know that cbrd was coming out with a new turbo as well but I called and they never returned my call. Also people keep asking if there will ever be a fp red but theyve been quiet about it.

I made 500 whp on an AMS 50 trim kit and it spooled up pretty easy on the streets!! pump gas and methanol...
Beautiful kit to by the way but I also had an AMS VSR intake which makes a big difference on power levels.
