Default Turbo Suggestions

I want to buy a turbo but am not sure what will fit my needs.

-I am only looking to get about 8 psi at MAX
-Good price
-Good for a daily driven car w/ occasional racing
-Internal wastegate is a must
-Will produce the max hp given the above needs

All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

You need to read and do a little research on your own. Then come back and ask questions, cause it seems to me you know nothing about boosting.

T3 45, 50, or 60 trim. My Dad has one on his Saab that has 330k miles on it and the turbo is a T3 45 trim that's factory at 7-8psi and it's original. If you truly want only 8psi then an oil cooled only T3 will run forever at those levels.

T3's are always safe bets

I'm looking to custom fab a turbo setup for my 2000 mits Eclipse GT V6. It's not the easiest thing in the world to do.

Yea. you would have to make a custom pipe that connects both heads to a turbo flange and thats def. not easy but it is possible

A tiny t3 for that v6...go bigger.

I'm just going to go off of the front side of my head and i dont wanna use too big of a turbo, because i'm going to run on stock internals, and the pistons aren't as strong as they should be. Mitsu screwed up on the piston part
