The 0-60mph is achieved on the stock turbo so fast that any other turbo bigger than stock has no chance to even spool up fully. I insist the stock turbo is the best route only for 0-60mph.

Yes, I'm quoting my own post.

OP, are you against running water/meth injection? It's a fantastic mod for 0-60. Check out Archiebabie's car in the link below. Massive torque!

Cams

You will definitely need a clutch with greater holding power.

Check out some numbers here:

0-60?

I would go with a smaller turbo (faster spool), some cams, a larger displacement motor, maybe even change your gear ratios around if a fast 0-60 is your goal.

like i say
a fast spooling turbo
the stock turbo is capable of that reaching 0-60 in around 4secs if u have an aggressive tune par with a stroker kit

BBK lite is another option in addition to stronger clutch, stickier tires and better driving technique.

I'm with you. I was just trying to give some food for thought for getting the best 0-60 for the money. I was just trying to relate (adimittedly very poorly) that the bolt on's will be very impressive compared to stock, and before doing those, it would be hard for me to go straight to a bigger turbo which may make 0-60 worse. I hated my car's performance when it was stock (both weeks of it). Sorry for not being clear...
