Default Future turbo

Ok iv got all my mods lined out except what turbo im gonna run. What im gonna do is run the chip i have, an airdog or mitusa lp, gauges, and SDX 125 hp injectors... now question is for a daily driver and occasional trip to the track and not pulling anything bigger than a 2000 pound water trailer should I run a HX35/40 hybrid with 60 mm compresor and 14cm2 exahust houseing ( about $750) or HTTs HTB2 with 13cm2 SS exahust houseing (about $2000)? I would like to keep my spool up where it is (if possible) and have a peak psi at about 42 any opinons?

Althought the ss housing is nice save your money and do without it unless you just have to have it.

Do you think the hybrid would be a decent choice? or better to go with a whole new turbo?

I would go with a s300 based turbo like a 62 then you can use that as a top turbo for compounds. They hybrid does not hold up as well to abuse. I am making 603 with a s300 62/71/14 over a s475 and 250hp injectors. The 62 will spool well with the 125's and I would get the 13 for the exhaust housing especially for a single.

x2 the s300 line of turbos are very good turbos, and make a great top turbo for twin set ups..... thats what i'm looking at getting when i get my tax refund this year.... s300 62/65/14or 12 haven't made up my minde on the exhaust housing yet...

62mm s300 will be great, and will work nice with twins later.
