i need to pull the trigger SOON on turbo's. i am so confused as to what i want , and what best suits my driving.
i have gt2 gears and i realllly want to enjo a somewhat wide powerband... with my current vtg's, i can mash the throttle at 3k and i'll have torque...
im being talked out of a28's because they arent much biggger than vtg's...
i was set on 3076's, but im afraid they will be too laggy , especially on pump.
i wanted to try the FRP turbos but i havent been able to get any info on them.
im looking for a sub 5 second 60-130... torque down low, and power til 6500.
i am looking for a turbo with internal wastegates. plug and play. the car is street car daily driver !
can we get some videos and 60-130s ?

Tom@Champion will have to confirm the price, but yes you would send in your OEM VTG's for modification.

I was able to get the vbox on the car for a couple runs at Shift Sector. Elevation was just over 400 feet, temperatures at 90 leaving us in a sauna-like density altutide of 2800 feet 
Vehicle is full weight, OEM tires and wheels. We also dialed back the power slightly, as we have a good knowledge at this point of where this setup will begin to stress the connecting rods. Power was at 660 whp and 660 wtq for these runs.
I'll have some more runs soon in a more favorable DA, so we can see what the stock motor setup can really do.

Wow that's impressive. I honestly think it was 93 degrees out there(my buddies were there and it said 93 on my iPhone lol). I think with more experience in the car, better temps, E85 if it's an option, and you could hit 5's.

I've done some runs in temperatures like this and it definitely makes a difference compared with temps in the 50s and 60s.

Correct, it was the car mentioned in the first post with the supporting modifications (inlet pipes, injectors, intercoolers). As I said, for this run the car was turned down slightly from the original dyno due to it being stock motor and the torque coming on so early. We were right around 660 whp and 660 wtq for this run, 22-23 pounds of boost.
