I got some dough :D which is rare so Im looking for a turbo for my forged 383 project.
I just wanted to see if anybody knows a good turbo for about the $1500 range.
I was looking at maybe these.

I run the second to last, PT76gts, as do many of the guys who runs Jon's kits.

Do you have a lot of lag and what hp range are running?

I run the 76GTS on my 383. Spools in the 2500-3000 RPM range, gets hairy quick. Making ~700 RWHP give or take (first dyno trip was 767, last was 698 at lower boost on a mustang dyno). VERY good T4 turbo.......

Is there a better turbo you have your eye on that you could share with me:D

Not IMO. For a T4 turbo, I think the 76GTS is about as good as it gets. Only better would be the dual ball bearing option on it. Now if you are talking about going to a T6 turbo....options open up, but you start running in to space issues.

And Im sure there in the 2-2500k range.I like 76gts but I just want to see if theres a better one out there.About the space I can make space,what were ypu thinking in the t6 catagory.

Popular T6 choice is the good old 88mm Precision. BIG bang for the buck because IIRC it's not much more than the 76GTS.

I bought my 76 from Joel @ Forced inductions. Paid like $1550 with a blanket. http://www.forcedinductions.com/productpte.htm

I'm just gonna stick with the GTS76.It seams like everyone has great results with them and havent heard anybody saying they crapped out on them. Also the t88 is gonna be super lagging on the street.I think the 76 will be plenty for me to start out.

I got mine from Jon @ LT1boost, think it was a lil cheaper, but I didn't get a blanket :frustrated:
Def shoot Jon a email or call him.
