i'm interested in getting a turbo during the winter while it's in storage. i was curious as to where is a good pace to get one?

You should get one at a slow pace. That way, you'll have plenty of time to research.

i was just searching and getting ideas. i came across a greddy Type: T88H, Compressor Wheel: 38GK, Ex Housing: 22.0cm... how is that sounding?

Sounds like you missed the FI forum.

Well my friend the T88H is kind of big for a prelude. This turbo is better suited for 6 or more cylinder engines. T88H is very popular in the supra community. I think that one of the t3/t4 combination turbos would be much more usable, but then again you have to state what your goals are, or to be more specific what the car will be used for?

Precision SC61, Garret GT30R or GT35R, all good turbos...

and by the way....
when you start a new thread, be a little more descriptive in the title. "Turbo" in the F/I forums is pretty much a given.

sorry about that. well i live in a fairly small community, but have a lot of tuned cars. we all have back road races locally. in the city there is a track and street races and i wanna get into that and of course i wanna have the fastest car.

Go to the FI section, read all the stickies from top to bottom then come back and ask some more specific questions.
It is not as simple as just getting a good turbo, from the sounds of it you are getting yourself in WAY over your head.
Have you thought about, manifold, piping, intercooler, injectors, fuel supply, oil supply, manifold, ecu and tuning?

FYI: dont ever say street race, talk about street race or want to street race on any public forum. It is frowned upon, considered "highschool" and of course ... its public. There have been many "races" broken up and people arrested from posting things on a public forum.
