Best Single Turbo Kit

Which turbo kit has the best overall quality and the best performance. I am lloking for 800-850 rwhp and am looking at power house stage 3 and boost ligic stage 3 kit. I also was thinking of getting the greddy t88h kit and selling the turbo off of it and putting a turbonetics ceramic ball bearing turbo in place of it. What do you guys think?

Does anyone know if you can run any 4" DP/MP with the Full-Race kit. I dont mind paying $2300.00 for their exhaust manifold but $700-$800 for the DP/MP each is ridiculous considering you can get both from other vendors for $700/$800.

I'm not positive, but I would say that it wouldn't because each exhaust manifold will put the turbo in a different location. You could give Full Race a call, to see what they say, but there will most likely be a slight variation between the kits that don't allow the downpipes to be interchangeable.

LoL, it isnt new, VWR kits have been around for quite some time, haha Noob,you will soon learn all about VWR if you read enough
Pricing all depends on what you want,cause not everyone wants the same turbo,or a T4 exhaust manifold

where in VA are you? BTW phr makes a great kit, up until recently they used HKS manifolds.....I have a HPF 67mm turbo kit, which is not bad, although in hind site i wish I had gone with the HKSt04z.....For your power goals, money not a consideration, t51r no question.....quality is awesome, and the vband flange is great.....

Pieceing together your own kit is probably the most affordable route!
Some of the guys on here have layed down some big numbers with their own pieced together kits!

as far as PHR,their kits are badass! ive had 2 of them! no complaints!
From what Joe told me,HKS discontinued their Exhaust Manifold,so now PHR is going to use Full-Race ex.manifolds on their kits!

I am not going to discuss my price for my VWR kit on here! If you want to get a price on the same kit,then email or call him.

I have spent alot of time designing and testing this header in real world applications just like I did the Intake manifold that works so well. All I have to say is look at the facts, look at the dyno numbers and parts that the cars had on them in Texas.
