let me list my mods first:

a race ported motor (not bridge but the largest ports you can get)

PFC with 850s and 1300s

greddy smic

lighter flywheel

MSD 6A

3.75in mp and 3.75 in Ex



what turbo would be good for my setup if i wanted some low end power and crazy top end? (start spooling a 3500- full boost by4500-5000 rpm)

i want to hit close to 500whp maybe more. and i want to run 10s.



i know that i don't have enough fuel for 500whp so will 1600 secondarys be enough?

one more thing, i want a custom kit ( read less than $3200 )

Neither of those turbo's are going to make any "real" power. Get the HKS T51R. I know you don't have the money, but save up, cause this is just the beginning. Plan on throwing the POS Power FC out the window and getting a real stand alone like the Haltech, Tec3 or Motec.

Yeah go with a better stand alone like ErnieT suggested. T51r is pricey, you could go with something like a t-66 through t-76 and maybe change to a Q trim for more exhaust flow, might help match your large exhaust pipes.

Oh yeah, and 850 by 1300cc injectors is good for about 550rwhp at 100% duty cycle and around 475rwhp at 85% duty cycle. So you really need to upgrade to 1600cc secondaries to keep the duty cycle in a safer zone. And not to mention you're going to need a huge fuel pump to keep up with that much flow.

Its not a POS, but if you are going after "big" power, then you really need something a notch up.

The t78 will make that power. You'd be pushing a t04r pretty hard to make that kind of power though. T70-T72 are closer to the size of a T51R but way cheaper.

The only single I'd even consider buying.
