In my opinion if you are looking at 550 fwhp you going to need something big and porting beyond a street port, so guess you are really limiting you options with that expectation.

It really comes down to how you want the car to drive. Do you want it making huge power but only boosting from high up the rev range, good for drag strips or something that boosts from low down thats very driveable  but still makes good figures and also how much boost you are prepared to run, as im sure you know, many tuners dont like going over a bar without water injection etc

Have a read of the dyno chart and see what people have achieved on what ports compared to what turbos. But in all honesty i think it comes down to what you want from the car in terms of driving experience and performance.

I have just gone from a T78 as really didnt really want something only making full boost after 4k, admittedly they are an older turbo and hopefully with the T04z being roller bearing but still a good size should see similar hp figures but boosting earlier.

well im definetly going to use water injection as was lookin to go 1.2bar. ya the to4z sounds good, im lookin for that good balance for track, not too pushed about drag racing. think im going to go for a to4z or similar. if after a couple years i need a rebuild then maybe bigger ports

AshRX

go for GT4094 or similar, my opinion a better turbo and a lot cheaper. There are a few of the boys on here using that and they get full boost under 4k and get no real lag.

If you get a HKS one your only paying for the name

Then buy a garrett t04z which is pretty much the same by all accounts. :Giggle

To be fair only joking, GT4094 a very good turbo too, just had no personal experience with.

colin777

what kind of power is the gt4094 capable of on a strret port at 1.2bar

AshRX

450bhp ish

can be run more up to 1.4 with water injection on nice streetport

If you want the best of both worlds i would get a MP T64...1.00 A/R split rear housing..GTQ Turbine Wheel....ported front compressor housing...trust me you cant go wrong!!!!
 
I supplied one to someone on FDUK...and on here......he gets 479BHP at a bar and full boost by 4200......if thats too late for ya i can supply it with a P trim rear wheel which will spool quicker but make about 30-40 hp less.

why so cheap, is it not garrett quality, and will it last long over a bar, also is oil and water cooled and ball bearing??

LOL....you can pay more if you want!!!!!.....i just do good pricing thats all!
 
These are quality turbos....and can be rebuilt using garrett parts.....(i need to confirm but i think they use garrett centre cartridges..)  Built under ISO 9000 guidelines in brazil.
 
Its a large frame turbo that is actually designed for 1.5 bar and higher......I have supplied a few to guys on here...and they have them over 1 bar and have had no problems whatsoever....i used to run mine at 1.4 bar
 
These turbos are very popular with the Mustang and Supra guys.:mmmm
