I've been leaning toward a MAP turbo but I read both negative and positive reviews on them. That's what made me look at the Garrett gt3071r or 76r stock frame but I can't find hardly any reviews on them. Basically I want the best of both worlds not laggy and as much as horse power as possible lol

What about the ATP GTX3071R or 76R?

I think the housing on those are said to be somewhat restrictive, no?

Fp just announced that they were able to get more stocking housings but they have to buy a whole turbo to get it so it is 300 more expensive than the normal setup but still allows you to get a fp turbo with a true stock frame housing. Just to complicate your decision some more haha.

I just wanted some real life numbers and reliability issues they may or may not have thanks

BBK full has a very stock-like response and a very generous top-end.

This is one of the fastest spooling turbos that can get you up to 500 hp.

It spools faster than a 9 turbo and I was on e85 32-33psi making 505whp and 485wtq.

did you ever post a dyno graph? would have like to seen it.

If your running pure pump gas i'd say get a Fp green HTA or a bbk full if on e85 i'd say get a fp red and if you want a true bolt on turbo just send your turbo in to them the new housing is really going to limit your choices.

I wouldn't recommend ATP turbo's as they have all the lag and none of the power

Many people are critical about their housings. However, a yellow Evo in Cali has run 9's in the quarter mile. Then again, it was on a GTX3582r.

get a bbk full or bbk bb-b. they are among the best out there. it all depends on your power goals. and what you want to do to the car. i just ordered the bbk bb-b. it that tells you my opinion. full boos by 4k and should have 500 hp on a dyno jet
