    Default Turbo?

    What would be the best brand or model turbo? I don't want a drag car but i do want to blow a V8 to hell.

    Better power to weight ratio i would have thought plus fuel economy. I used to think like you but the cost of fuel these days is f*#ked

    Here's my 2bob. Garrett air research T O 4. And some high flow injectors.The difference in fuel economy between a turbo 6 & v8 will be minimal.If you want fuel economy, buy a skateboard!
