Id go Holset.It is big enough to make more power than you want so it will leave room for improvement.

On HMT, it's PIMP STATUS

I got the 1uz off Ebay. They are all over. It took me awhile to find one at the price I wanted to pay, with all the accessories and wiring and whatnot I needed.

The engine is strong. Lots of Aussies putting big numbers on stock bottom ends. I'm definitely going to boost it. HMT-style. I was going to keep it conservative, shooting for 400hp or so.

I'm trying to figure out what way to go for turbo/s. 2 60/63 T3s, or a single HX40 or something. I want to keep the budget at $500-600 for turbo/s. I gotta say, keep looking at that SSautocrap T70. :1

CT-26a's (7m-gte) If you wanna keep it all yota!
60/63's will both own & support that on that engine easily.
48/60's would be insane to drive in that little car on the street, but obviously... Gonna be some major choking on the turbine side somewhere between 350-450bhp.

I'm leaning pretty heavily towards singlle turbo. It just seems more efficient. All the mustangs, 300zxs putting down good numbers run a single. Plumbing the charge piping and exhaust would be much easier, too. Plus, you don't need as many bends, mufflers, wastegates, turbos, flexpipes, couplers.

Here is a chart of the 1UZFE pressure ratio vs. air flow
http://www.lextreme.com/GT.html

Engine Liter Cubic Inch Air flow Static 6 psi 8 psi 10 psi 12 psi 14 psi 16 psi 18 psi 20 psi
1UZFE (AirFlow) 4 244 367.26 cfm 35.74 39.08 42.633 46.044 49.4905 52.937 56.3835 59.83
Pressure Ratio 1.41 1.54 1.68 1.816 1.95 2.086 2.2216 2.3572

Here's a couple turbos I'm considering:

Master Power t70. These are really popular with the turbo mustang guys.

Holset H2E, maybe H1E or HX40. I'm not a big fan of the odd ball sizes v-band and the integrated WG. They are also in demand for the turbo diesel guys, so are pretty expensive for a used turbp



And the ebay ssac stone "t70" Which is supposed to be more like a t61. A bit smaller, faster spooling, on the edge of the efficiency island. But ---- is cheap... $375 including 50mm WG and bov. I have seen a couple people run these on HMT, without problems. It's pretty tempting.
