What turbo would you buy for 700hp if money was no issue…

A T04Z is a 67dbb, but has a ported compressor housing, so it looks cool and makes a neat sound, but causes lag. Any greddy turbo is a ripoff.

a gt4088r is a bit too much turbo if you only want 700hp. Honestly, I think a T71H from precision turbos would do exactly what you want. If you can rev to or above 7500, get the .81 AR hot side. If you rev lower than that, get the .68 AR. Get the ball bearing option if you can afford it. It's a bit pricey at $1700 with the BB option.

Remember that a T67 DBB is $1275, and it WILL make big power.

If you're in the market for a really expensive turbo…

GT55-91. It is a T6 frame turbo, and the ball bearing version will run you right around $5000. Good for 2000+hp. Expect to spool at around 7000rpm.

Call http://www.boostlogic.com for a decent price on precision turbos.

How about a 14b. I hear those are the shiznit…flow like crazy.

I wouldnt run a turbo that is on the very edge of being able to make 700hp. I would run a turbo that flows 700hp comfortably with being capable of flowing about 100hp further. This way you are not running your turbo on the ragged edge whenever you hit full boost, Thus resulting in less stress on the turbo which is a good thing on a street car.

I agree 100%… that's why I suggested a T71, but the 67 is the best bang for the buck as far as brand new aftermarket turbos.

I still think the 67 is the best way to go. A T04Z is the same thing, but you have to pay $450 for the greddy logo.

umm i was referring to this one ,and its not an hks turbo (hks is the one who makes the TO4z not greddy AFAIK )

The inducer is what is going to determine max flow from the compressor, and that one has a 66.7mm inducer, exactly what a T67 has. The wheels are exactly the same as a T67, the only difference is the compressor housing and the price.

BTW, you can get a T67 with a ported compressor housing for $100 more.

Also, you have to be careful when buying turbos. A Greddy T78 is not an 78mm inducer… it is a TD07 turbine housing with a TD08 compressor housing. It's actually around a 70-74mm turbo I believe.
