Are turbos preference? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Matey · 12-17-2013, 02:19 PM

I'm trying to make sure Greddy isn't a bad choice when it comes to getting a turbo. Are there better? Is there a cheaper one that works just as well? (cheaper one means I'd probably be buying an intake with it, though becuase greddy comes with one)

Turbos are preference. No question about it.

Just go with the FBM base or Premium kit. Can't go wrong with the turbo selection on those. Heard alot of good things from their kids.

In a market as heavily saturated as the one for our cars (plenty of competition), you usually get what you pay for.

First time I've heard that phrase but it's true. It's amazing how much is available in less than 2 years.. I love it.
