Default New turbo (newage sti) ???

Ok, hopefully quite simple, I have all the bits ready to go on my car to increase the power ( aiming for over 400Bhp ) I'm just stuck on what turbo to get ( once I know this I can order my headers )

so, I was looking around and keep finding prices of £1300+ vat. This kind of money is currently out of my budget, so does anyone have any ideas? Do I wait for a second hand one to turn up for sale, or is there other ones I should be looking at? Car is used for track, not drag.

Anyone got any recommendations that are under £1000...

Thanks Rez

Have your forged your engine. The difference between 360 bhp turbo and a 400bhp is massive.

I have a 20g turbo for sale, that made 360bhp and 400 ftlb by Andy F for only £500 The turbo is only a couple of months old. I am up grading it to a billet 500 bhp turbo.

SC46 is good turbo,which will make this power,if you are lucky you will find used one for these money,maybe lower.
MD321T is second turbo which will make around same mark(400-450bhp) and used are around £700-£800
If you looking for just 400bhp(and little more) good turbo is MD321H,SC40 or even 20G with methanol will make 400BHP

SC40 is an awesome turbo for value for money. £950 + vat and 400bhp fairly easy assuming good supporting mods.

Engine is NOT forged, and I have got my list of supporting mods and been told all I need is a good turbo.

Was told to run meth to achive such figures.

So realisticly, Its like most things, I get what I pay for looks like it's back to the overtime

EH52WRX - £1000 for a second hand MD321T is excessive, £850 is average
