It depends on what you mean by best...cheapest, most powerful at the top end, widest torque curve, cleanest (CARB approval), etc...

For me, from everything I have read, the best for MY situation is the JWT, IF they ever get it CARB approved.

do yourself a favor and type in "best turbo" in the search before asking anymore questions!

+1

Also, that nissan sport magazine shootout "dyno comparison chart" is NOT a good comparison for anyone to just glance at and tell which kit can do what. It uses different vehicles/different 'options'/different states of tune/6MT and AT. So Read the entire article to gain an opinion on any of the kits, as the write-ups explain each kit a lot more and reveal what each car has on it, and it's state-of-tune. Too bad they could not do a better "dyno shootout" though, that'd be hard to set up, ... but super sweet to see!

If you do a search at my350z there are PLENTY of agruments about which does what. (also plenty of arguments about that article)

which ever kit you take to a competent tuner/installer will be realiable to a certain power level.

Agreed. The turbo kits are just parts without a great tuner and installer, you still have just parts...All of which can blow up your motor within seconds if not installed correctly or tuned to safe and reliable levels.

Good-luck.

I always recommend the Vortech TT, Greddy Single T or the Turbonetics TT.
