Best Turbo Setup

[chooch]

Hi Guys,

I was just wondering what you consider the best turbo setup, i.e. whats the most fun???
I've gone from 9b - 11g - 15g and wondering where to go now. Interested to hear your thoughts, single, TD04 or not etc etc.

cheers,
Ewam

There really is no 'best turbo setup', it is a relative term.

Some factors that may go into your turbo decision:
Budget
Plans for the car - Drag only? AutoX? Road Racing? Daily driving? All four?

A lot of the guys who have been around for a while usually recommend TD04's for fun on the street. Most notably, DR750's.

I hear those DR 750's are awesome.

Based on the OP's responses....can't really go wrong here.

Two main questions.

What is your power goal?
What kind of fuel do you want to run?

Hi guys,

Thanks for your replies, so are you all running 19T's? I didn't realise that they were that popular. What type of driving do you do with them, drag, street, track etc? I from the results I've seen there isn't a great gain going to 19T from 15g...

cheers,

Hi, thanks for your replies, my questions were generic, and more directed at those who have changed turbos multiple times. I havn't been in a car faster than my own, so how can I set a power goal? I run road fuel on the road, but have been known to use race gas for the track, but again generic question for those who have ran different turbos. e.g. 16g / T3 or T3/T4 or DR... My car is multi purpose, road and track, so the turbo has to do both.
My thoughts were 9b's not very interesting, except good initial pull, 11g's were a good allround bpu turbo, I had 15g's fitted with a standalone etc and they were a bit boring as it was such a smooth power delivery...
