Without the right supporting parts/mods, (50# injectors minimum, upgraded fuel system, intercooler, head work, converter / built tranny, suspension mods, etc....) NO turbo out there is going to get you to your ET goal!

You need to make sure your mods work together as a package, slapping on a big turbo as your car sits will just slow it down even more. By your listed mods & ET, IMHO you should maximize your existing combo before you start throwing money at "big" go-fast parts!

thinking of getting a bigger turbo

would a t44 work good on my exsisting mods if so what would be the out put i can expect from it ???

My 1st TR ran 13.8@102 with ONLY a K&N filter, old tech Texas Turbo's chip & 235-60-15" radials.

You should be able to run high to mid 12's with your car's existing mods, I'd strongly suggest getting it dialed in AS IS before you upgrade the turbo! Something is definately up with your car's state of tune if it is only running 13.9's@96 mph!!! Do you have a scan tool yet?
