Tomorrow, I will order my turbo and all else I need. I figure, I don't need it all done immediately. I can order things as I go along.
First the turbo...
then I'll figure out what to buy to compliment it with.
Have one night to sleep on it, and decide what to get.

In the second link the 02 housing is an extra 130$. I would just get it from extreme psi and use the stock 02 housing. Maybe have it ported a little bit.

Im partial to the slowboyracing EVOIII, its the same turbo, but they offer porting of the inlet and outlet, and the upgraded waste gate flapper. If you dont plan on running more than 18-20psi on that turbo, consider the 34mm flapper.

OK I thought it through...
I'm going for the EVO III 16G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now a few questions.
Why is slowboyracing more expensive than all the others?
The kit that should be bought with this to fit my car... is the 1G style oil line included or is that a 2g one?
What is that 100 dollar upgrade all about?
Thanks gang!

I dont think the sbr e3 is more expensive, but when you add the porting, then its gets more expensive. You will need the 2g install kit, getting the 1g oil line seems to be a good idea as well, which I think is included in the $100 upgrade, instead of fabbing up the stock 2g lines.

Meh...Slowboy racing....meh...
Stick with the other two vendors you already know.
BTW: in your extremepsi shopping cart, there is no need for a 2nd oil feed line, as the install kit already comes with one.
I'd recommend buying the turbo from maperformance (make sure they have in stock before ordering) then buying the slowboy install kit. I don't like slowboy, but their install kit looks like it would be very straight forward and easy for a newbie.

If you order through SBR I can do something about the price I have a wholesale account.
