Default Garrett 60-1 hifi w/ .63 a/r

Hey everyone...i've been on the forum for quite a while and i like to sit back and read b4 i ask questions. I, like many others on here, plan on assembling a custom set-up, while utilizing the reputible products and services from Dezod and Sound Performance.

Everyone knows in addition to having some excellent tuning to maximize performance, the proper turbo is also a necessity. I've been looking into the garrett 60-1 hifi and have considered building around that. I would like to get everyones opinion....(expert opinion would be best...not just what u think and how you feel )

Thank you!!

Thanks for also supporting us.

You can't really go wrong with Garrett. They do make some nice turbos and you do pay for them. If you have a hookup and can get a good deal on it then I'd say, go for it and try something new. We can all learn from looking at the power curve and response of the turbo.

I can say however that we have some GREAT new Innovate turbos (in stock) that are VERY comparable to the Garrett line. If you're already buying a lot of stuff from us we may be able to work out a small discount (better than nothing). Plus you have the convenience of getting one big awesome shipment in a timely manner from a supportive company.

Both paths will lead you to some great power and a great experience. Both turbos make very similar power. I think it'd be tough to see/feel the difference unless you ran both back to back.

If you have more questions ask and we'll all help you out.

Well as far as SP, since i reside in chicago, its a great place for me to go and get tuned and some parts... e.g. i would like to ther their equal length mani, and purchase their FMIC. As far as engine management, i am leaning towards the SAFC that SP uses simply because i have a few friends who currently use it and it is relatively easy to learn to use. I'm looking to keep my tC as a DD for now and once i get outta law school and such, i'll have a little more money to play with and have this as my toy :-).

As far as Dezod, i am very impressed with the quality of their work. I in no way want to "down" any other companies because if it were not for them we would not have a diversity of parts to choose from.....ok i'm off my soap box now I woul dlike to get Dezod's black box and their plug-n-play injectors as well as a few other things.

My friend just build a custom set-up...TOTAL sleeper.... a 1992 Nissan Stanza. Its pushing about 14 lbs when its cold out...the wheels spin in 3rd gear. He's getting rid of the car to do a custom Maxima set-up, and the turbo has only been on it for about 3 mos. So he's willing to give it 2 me.

Pelase let me know if any of you ahve any more suggestions of what would work well with ithis turbo/what kind of numbers i may expect w/o building the engine
