so i'm looking to get a turbo cause i'm pretty sure mine's blown and i plan on having it tuned (power fc) and getting a fmicand larger secondaries. so i'm not looking for tons of power but reliable and that's going to fit the stock manifold. Anyone have any suggestions?

unless youre in japan...or have the special adapter which i dont think is even for sale anymore, the power fc wont work on an FC....only on FD's.



as for what turbo, i'd say go for what your budget allows too, most people are happy with t04e, 60-1, there are a few "common" turbos, these are best for budget-conscience because there are man past experiences to sample from.
