    Default Looking for some information onTurbochargers

    I am looking to get a turbo on my 05 tc and have just started researching. I was wondering what brands people might recommend. I was looking at GReddy and was wondering if anyone had any feedback for the 11510090 kit for the tc. http://www.greddy.com/products/displ...SubCategory=15

    And are blow offs a possibility for the tc?

    Also, does anyone have a link to an online retailer? Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    ZPI and Turbonetics kits are good ones.

    Piston ring lands is what will fail first on overboosting.

    i would avoid any kit with a T3/T4 hybrid turbo (like turbonetics) this is what most turbo kits are using. this turbo is ancient technology from the 70's. there are far better turbos made today. i would recommend a Garrett turbo kit or any kit using a Garrett GT30R turbo, (you can go to ATP TURBO - The Premiere Provider of Turbocharging Components, but im not sure if they have released the kit yet or not, i would just email them or call them and ask). the zpi kit is good too.
