largest turbo?

im trying to make my 2002 wrx a 11 second car. i wanna know what turbo you guys think i should run to hit that time and still be able to drive my car on the street with no problem.

is it true that i can run any turbo and use a boost controller and drive on the street perfectly fine?

because if so....i need the biggest turbo

Probably get ahold of an FP green...

Seems to me that 2.5 Liters and an FP Green with big a$$ injectors could do you on a daily basis.

you're going to need more than a big turbo and a boost controller there. you're going to need big injectors, big pump, good exhaust (likely catless if you want to run 11's), reinforced tranny, and some really good engine management and tuning.

check this turbo out!

back to the topic... ive heard that the greddy T-76 (67?) gives you good gains but you would need to run a larger displacement eingine (2.5, 2.7)

I am running T67. It will kick ya in the ***** with the punch, but I still wish I went the HKS route and got a GT3037S or R. That is T-H-E best turbo for the WRX.

The biggest bolt-on turbo thus far is the AVO 600. The T67 is not bolt-on. You would need an up-ppe adapter, new intake/ may hose, and a downpipe just to name a few.

The green is the best bangs for bucks turbo. There are hybrid GT30's that outflow the green, but for the price, you can't beat the green.

t67 comes with a kit, which makes it a bolt on. No custom work needed. You need a FMIC, Airnix intake. The rest will work.

BOLT ON.
