as title i left a message on cr turbo,s facebook page asking for a turbo to get my car to 600hp
my engine spec is
Current spec is : 200 block, cooper rings with six long studs, Carillo h-section rods, Cosworth forged and pocketed pistons, BD16 Inlet, BD14 Exhaust, WRC spec big port head, custom plenum and a good old T4. Running on a L8 with MSD coil pack conversion and closed loop with air to air boost control.it also has ALS&launch control.
my original thought was put a roller bearing conversion on my t4 with a bigger exhaust housing & a gt35 compressor wheel & housing
i was surprised by what cr turbo recommended which is this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Garrett-T0...#ht_1858wt_700
which is a 750hp turbo
so what is your opinions are they right ?

Precision PT6262CEA ball bearing should get you there.

Sadly dont think there are any UK stockists. Price above is for their oil journal unit, BB is extra $600
Either way, great value units.
Generally if you want to make xyz bhp, then you will need a blower capable of a bit more to actually allow you to make the power without having to ring the absolute life out of it.

Or a GT30HTA or an FP Black (Would be an Evo fitment, but sure it can be modded to fit a YB) maybe an AMS 750R turbo - whatever that is...
Not a 35 unless you're on a stroker motor or like waiting for your boost

Change of cams to start with
To4z is good, and on race fuel will make 750 on a very well specced yb, more than that infact. But its too big for 600andy IMO
600 is a little difficult to aim for turbo choice wise

GT35R will piss it, but be pretty laggy on a 2ltr. Id go with one of Scoobyclinics (Blouch) GT30 Billets.
Their billet wheel is of superior design to that of the GTX wheel and is proven to be a better performer. (Certainly on an impreza) Will give much better punch on the 2ltr too.

Hi buddy a t04z is a good turbo I have one from vince and it is real good it has a twin scroll .82 exhaust housing.
A gtx30 is good but are a little fragile ! Only my opinion but you won't be disappointed !

That engine has done more mileage being taken to be repaired than it has in the actual car 
Goes like fook though, shame its just not been reliable enough.
Whatever turbo you buy there will be a better option out by next week, I wouldn't worry about whats best now, just buy something capable of what you want and enjoy the extra power.

Just seems that he suffers from bad luck with certain expensive components failing !
Its a cracking engine though, for the few laps we did at the ring I was very impressed, that was a while ago now though so its probably totally different again !
