how much power do you want make? where in the powerband would you like to hit full boost? what psi do you have in mind? how much are you looking to spend? these are all basic questions that will enable us to provide you with an informative reply.

there is a lot that you have to take into consideration like how much money you want to spend and how much hp you want and what exact type of setup that you want

I know it's a mispell, but an egt is also something that you might want to have if you're gonna go turbo. As for the right turbo, I think everyone is pretty much right on the ball. It depends on what you want to do with your car. How much power do you want to put down. The main thing it comes down to is, how much $$ are you willing to dish out. Turbo is expensive. The more hp you wanna put down, the more $$ it'll take.

Turbo

I really think a turbo kit would be a good option, best option in my opinion. It includes everything that you'll need for a basic set-up to run ~7psi. Drag Gen III is a very popular kit, uses an external wastegate w/ a T3/T04 Turbo. You can really build onto these kits making a lot of power. I did this option.

Also there's the GReddy kit w/ an internal wastegate, and a Mitsubishi 18G turbo. This turbo spools much more rapidly, yet wont' be able to make as much power. Another good entry-level turbokit.

Fmax and Rev hard kits are variations of the Drag w/ T3/T04 turbos, also very reputable kits.
