I have a Bone Stock 1JZ-GTE.
I purchased a Drewgo Turbo Manifold w/ T4 Flange.
I plan to modify the engine more in the spring/summer; so for now I just wanna
bolt on the Turbo, and enjoy the ride. If possible I'd like 350Hp.
Then in the summer, I'll do whats necessary to up the power to 500Hp.
However, I dunno what turbo to choose.
I want something that spools reletively quickly, and produces great low end power,
yet still holds it own at the high end.
I dont wanna have to change my turbo out right away either, so I'd like whatever
I choose to be able to go from 300 to 500Hp.

Oh.. and something budget friendly would be nice too.
Im not gonna spend 500-1000 bucks on a turbo.

Sounds like you're on kind of a budget. You could probably pick up a used percision or garret for ~500-600. You're not gonna find a quality turbo for less than that.

I dunno, haha..
I ended up getting a killer deal on this Turbonetics T62-1 Turbo
(.58AR Exhaust Housing) rated at 400-550Hp.

:2guns:

Apparently (I'll find out once its on..) it spools quickly.
It'll make boost near 2800rpm, and will hit full boost (15Psi) at about 3800.




Here's my Drewgo T4 Manifold too..
I'm gonna powdercoat the manifold tho, for a nice polished/silver look..

Nice find! Can't wait to see pics of the install and I'm sure you'll be more than thrilled with the outcome! That should make some pretty good power!
