Default Best Turbo for GSR

As you can probably guess, I am wondering which turbo would be the best for a GSR when you want to run anywhere from 7-10psi. Yea... this is opinionated stuff, but all dyno charts or other stats would be awesome and help a bunch.

I'm no expert at turbos, but from what i hear Greddy is better for low-boost applications like that and revhard and DRAG are more for higher boost purposes

Greddy is good...instructions on that is ok....Drag3? LOL...that shiat has little or NO intructions. The check valves on those kits are ghetto too...oh well You get what you paid for. Then again, I can't justify spending about $2500-$3000 for a Greddy kit only to fork out another $700-800 for a FMIC

Greddy. It will spool faster, and if you only want to boost 7-10 lbs you'll be fine with the smaller turbo. Not to mention the quality of the Greddy kit is much higher than drag/revhard; it comes with everything, every nut and bolt that you need to get running.

GReddy is better as an all-in-one solution. It comes with higher flow rate fuel injectors and a preprogrammed piggyback computer to work around your stock ECU (on '96-'99 cars olny).

If you're willing to put a bit more work in and add some parts the Drag3 and RevHard kits are good starting points.

And anyone who is going FI is going to go down that road. You will want more boost....it doesnt just "end" with a turbo kit, as much as everyone would like to hope

I say Drag. Why? The kit is pretty versatile for when you want to up the boost, it doesnt come with that stupid bluebox shiat, you can find them used for cheap....Drag is the way to go IMO.
