Buschur Racing. If you want to stick with your current fuel pump/injectors and cams, the 3582 is probably the better choice.

I'd buy from ETS hands down. But your not going to go wrong with BR, AMS or Full Race either.

ETS all in house fabrication, parts fitment is second to none, and some of if not the best customer service in the buisness. Reason enough for me

All I can say is if you get an ETS kit, be happy with the turbo on there, because if you try to switch it(even with a "direct bolt up") it can be a real pain

We have a few choices The HTA3586 is the largest T3 frame turbo your going to be able to fit unless you do one of the limited run HTA37R's, but that will fit as well.

If you need help with your setup, let me know!

Thanks,

Michael

Personally, I would probably go with an ETS. The kit and price are deal doers. They achieve great results!

Go ets. I got a hta3582 with the supervalue manifold for a great price. I'll upgrade the mani later to their polished equal length but for now I'm fine. Their customer service is amazing. I had a problem with the recirc j pipe for my wastegate and called Michael up and let him know it would not work cus itwas to long and I had a new one within a few days free of charge. Plus there equal length kits look way to sexy. If I had extra cash I would buy an extra one just to hang on my wall.

For a stock motor car I would get an AMS kit. They are great quality and fitment. Only downside is that if you want more than .63 turbine side you need to change kits. The .63 can make more power than a stock motor can handle so you need to decide your power goals. Otherwise I would do any one of the other mentioned kits thay have the availability of the larger A/R turbine housing. I would either get the GARRETT 4 bolt GT35R turbine housing or the precision v-band housing. I like the v-band because it is the easiest to swap turbos and looks ultra sexy.

You only hear great things about AMS and every time i call I get someone on the line who is willing and able to help.

Not to say the rest aren't good just my personal experience with AMS. They know their stuff & easy to talk to.

I love the AMS stuff, so expensive but so nice and fits so well.
