Are you tuned? If not another stock turbo would make the most sense...

Otherwise to get the most out of an aftermarket turbo factor in the cost of a tuner.

I think you wants to be told you should upgrade or rebuild upgrade but will need a tune to go with two turbos

sorry had to run to the shop earlier OK i'm bone stock new to the turbo and flex world so i have figured out

used turbo with  20k 1 year warr. for 600- or

new 1 year warr. for 950 or

upgrade to EPP for 1600 no warr or

ATP warranty is limited to repair for 2500

so i know im going to have to tune it

ATP said there wont work without a tune and im kind of weary of 500+ hp ripping the drivetrain apart

EPP said i would not notice any diff. from stock without tune

or can i do better with stock turbos and tuner map sensor pipes thermostat catch can or something like that

Are you including labor in your pricing?  If not, you should be able to get better pricing on new stock units which list for $650-700 per turbo and Tascaparts.com offers them for less than $500 plus shipping.

You can get 500+ HP with just a bigger turbo?
Are these wheel HP or crank HP numbers?

Bigger turbos would require you to run meth injection, or when they come to the market, bigger HPFP's.  All would require  a 3 bar, plus tune.

No meth required with bigger turbos. it would help, but is not required. The reduction in IATs from bigger turbos alone would be nice..
