I choose to use a T28 instead of T3/T4 just because i'm more of a low end power type of person. When you street race or even race against fast cars you need all the low end you can get. some time the races are just 0-60.

Civics race from a 40mph roll.
Something to consider if your into racing, how long are you below 4000 RPM's when you race?? Maybe for a second when you launch right ??? Then the rest of the time if your shifting at redline, your above 4500 RPMS.

So what do you recommend???
It seems like turbo are to complicated.
I want a T25 for low end power but everyone says to go with a T3/T4 for high end power. IS there a miricle turbo that can do it all??????

I use a t3/t4e 57 trim with a .48 ar turbine with a stage III wheel and .60 ar compressor. Spoolup is super fast and I have plenty of top end on it as well. It's a very versatile turbo and will make alot of power. I could probably get 350-ish whp out of this turbo.

Rep Power: 0 Well that does sound good. Don't get me wrong but i'm only going to run a turbo at 6 psi or maybe, just maybe 8psi but i don't thing so.
My motor is not built and don't know when it would be.
With the info you have now. What turbo do you suggest?
T3/4 or T3 or T25BB
The most power i'll ever see out of my car is 180 or 190 at the most.
All i want is a little bit fast car.
If i was going to boost really high for 350 hp i would have got a SRT-4

Rep Power: 0 If all you want is 190-200whp I would say save the money get a log manifold and a better turbo and you'll easily be within reach of your goals. GT28RS would easily make up to 300whp so it i'll be more than enough for you with your setup and a nice spool time.
