I read Bernie's great article comparing various turbos but it predates the advent of the 700BB and gt28rs turbos. I just pulled my motor which will be rebuilt for strength and reliability at higher power. Stillen sidemounts and ducts are going in, and the exhaust, test pipes etc are all Labree. Iconel manifolds may be a part of the build if I am um, blessed with less work than I think on the bottom end. I'm a track guy, but like big roll on power for open stretches of highway too. Turbo-wise, I'm considering the following: 1. 700 BB's in a .64 housing
2. 530 BB's
3. 700 BB's/GT28rs
4. HKS I'd like any input you guys will offer who have experience with these set-ups. Greg and Seb at one point gave a pretty strong nod to the 700BB's. Yes I searched, at length, here and in technical, so please, go easy on me.
1991 Aztec Red TT bought new in '91
