I am planning out my TII's build up as I am picking up my poor babe tommorow afternoon. It was suggested that a TO4B would easily make the 350-400hp that I am going to want out of my S5 TII. But I can't seem to find it. If any of you know where I can look for them it would be great. I have tried ebay, google and some other net sources but i can't find on that I need. He also said that a 60-1 would be good. But again I don't know where to buy them I can only find them in pics and forums. :/

First of all to address an important issue. I am not leaving the N/a scene at all. I am probably going to enjoy the N/a more because i will not drive the TII much. Probably one or two days of the week to go show up the ricers and domestics at the track locally. The N/a is probably going to be my Suspension ***** getting the badass handling upgrades and all that. If I get my beater car fixed again I will probably bridge my engine on the Sport and run it at the autoX or rally it a bit. 
Second I am shooting for 350-400hp with reliable running for the engine and turbo. I don't want to push a small turbo too much to make the power cheaply I dont like down time after the car is working. I want the Snail to have enough to make that power easily or moderatly taxing its ability.
I checked out cheap turbo before asking but I didn't see the B i saw a TO4S I think. Would that still be the same turbo? I am still green on the TII scene and need a little guidance.

Santiago you may want to look for a 60-1 turbo. It gives me a reliable 330 rwhp at only 10psi non-port engine and still room for improvement. At 10psi the turbo is not even yet at its peak efficiency. Efficiency is the key for reliable power. THis turbo is a very popular with rotaries, specially ported. cheapturbo.com seems to have good prices.
