What is the best turbo?

What is the best turbo for b16a2? Is greddy a good one and how much power does greddy give you?

 

[spoolup]

any tubo will really do the job, its the respone time is what you whant big turbos can do lots of boost but take longer to spool smaller ones cant probuce as much boost but spool relitivly fast
go to Max-Rev.com and check out there sight there kit is what i run on my coupe. My buddy has a Greddy kit and his doesnt produce the power mine does.

The Drag 3 kit does wonders on the b16 motor.

drag kits suck, their wastegate positioning is among the worst plus the crack easily. sure they give lots of power...but not very good quality. greddys arent very great if you want to upgrade later. id say make a custom kit..... and there is no right or wrong answer for which is the best turbo. what power do you want? what kinda driving are you gonna be doing? daily driver?

 

[needboost]

what you want the extra power for? racing? daily driving? it all depends on what you are wanting to do with it.

 

[SeanMc300]

gee, did i jsut say that?? think so

 

[Ace$nyper]

greddy has the upside of being 50 stage smog oked. It does depend on what you want though.

make sure u get a ball baring turbo, faster spools.

 

[SeanMc300]

minimize on your charge pipes...better throttle respone=less lag=faster spool

mdlax9: it depends on your goals. what are you trying to achieve?

HKS makes great turbo kits but they are spendy.......some of the best though in my opinion

 

[ComCool]

Where do you get a HKS kit for a B16A2?

 

[SeanMc300]

holy back from the dead

holy back from the dead

no kidding.

I recommend a GT28R. 8)

I'd recommend a gt28, but, you will find your manifold options are greatly limited because of the flange on the t25 turbine.

I'd say go with a straight t3.
