DSM: turbo questions

[supramike7m]

hey guys mike here. well i was curious cause my buddy has a dsm and he was looking at turbos for his car. i was pretty interested in what he was showing me, as i have a turbo with massive lag. alot of the turbos for the dsm are t3/t4 and are capable of over 500 hp. :icon_conf i was thinkin if they are capable of this much power and with a t3 hot side they would spool real nice, why dont we try t3/t4? or maybe some of you are i just havent seen many. my goals for now are about 500 hp crank, and i would love to spool soon, so what would be the down side of using this kind of turbo? just curious what yall think. thanks.
Mike

What's going on man. I've got a Frankenstein 5 TD06-20g which supports around 590 hp. I haven't actually driven the car yet, but from what I hear it should spool pretty nicely and give me some decent top end. Do some more research on it, it may be what you're looking for.
