What you want to go for is usually ballbearing, although ive seen alot of mr2's with t3/t4 setup. The most important thing for a turbo is spool time and a ballbearing is worth the money.

Before anyone could recommend a turbo, they would need to know what yo uwant your turbo to do.

What kind of driving/racing do you want out of it?
What are your goals?

Most MR2s are not running ballbearing turbos, it is hardly a necessary requirement.

Again, the size/type of turbo you want is going to depend on what kind of horespower you want, what kind of power band ... what kind of racing you do.

A great drag racing turbo would make for an awful autocross turbo.

Just curious, but what would you consider a good upgrade for a drag racing turbo? I would like to suit my car up for street drag racing and was curious about turbo upgrades as well.

Re: I need A upgraded turbo Which One

If you do not care about lag and just want top end power (i.e. drag racing), you are going to want somethiung huge like a GReddy T67 or even a T78 ... or GT30 or GT35.

Talk to Aaron at ATSRACING.NET ... tell him I sent you He'll know what you will need (And what you need to run it properly).

HAHAHA HYDE i see you are already starting promote your sponsor. LOL
Ive been away for a bit so dont mind me if im unearthing an old post.
Back to the subject, i am a auto crossing fan and although i ve never done before (and i plan to this summer) i am all about control and spool time, hyde has a good point about the types of turbos to get. But like i said, for me, it is always about spool time.

I would say a nice kit to get would be a T3/4 or a GT30. I know people who have both kits and they are both in the 11's.

But only one of us could also be competitive in SCCA Solo 2 Autocrosses and SCCA Solo 1 Hill Climbs

... again, you need to ask yourself waht you want from your turbo.
A properly set up GT30 turboed MR2 should be extremely deep into the 10s not playing around in the 11s.
