I'm looking to make like 350 rwhp with a street port. I'm thinking like 15 psi or so of boost. What do you guys thinkwould be the best? Or is there a better turbo than the T04?

To4E/B either one would be able to make that power. Keep in mind those ebay deals are almost always too good to be true..

A lot of the turbos on ebay are probably refurbished items. There is nothing really wrong with them... They were just probably built with a defect so they were repaired and sold at a lower cost.

You also need to spend another 100+ to have a Vband welded on usually, they always somehow forget to mention that...

Go to www.cheapturbo.com They are one of our sponsors, and seem to have reasonable prices.

SO the downpipe can be attached to the turbo, a good picture would really help explaining it..
