WICKEDGN,
If you are serious about the TA block next year, I would plan my purchases for the new block - one I could really put the horsepower to

Just my 2 cents

Good luck

TA 60 or TA 49

TA 60 I have one in my car, and my buddy has a TA 49 on his, mid 11's to low 11's with ethier turbo, and they spool like mad... really fassssst..

Just my opinion, but I'd go with a TE44 with a Garrett .63 turbine housing from John Craig.

TE series turbos have the advantage of no turbo bell - your MAF set-up connects directly to the turbo - no bell, no nuts, no gasket, and most important, no transition of diameters, so no disruption of the flow entering the compressor wheel.

The 44 is worth a little more flow and HP over a 49 as unlike the 49, the 44's compressor housing is optimized for the wheel.

A 44 with the Garrett housing will spool great with a stock torque converter and is very capable of mid 11s. There's probably not a better turbo for a stock headed, street driven TR.

Good luck with your choice.
