well guys going to get the rb25 and i was looking to upgrade the turbo soon down the road i was looking at this by another member pointed me to this holset hx35. How do you like that over the garret gt3076r or what ever turbo you are using currently

borg warner turbos have a much better responce rate over the garret line, hands down. more power and if the center cartrage goes bad, its a fraction of the cost to repair it. i would go with a s362 or precision 6262. both great turbos making much better numbers than garrets and more reliable.

HX40 would be better, should be good enough to get you close to 600hp and not laggy at all. I've ridden in a couple cars out here with them on RB25s and they're definitely a cheap alternate to any turbos out there. Can be had from E-bay off some dodge trucks for less than $200. Rebuild kits are dirt cheap for them...
Here's my buddy's old RWD R32 with an HX40 turbo, 19cm housings...

Just be careful tho, his shit was snapping stock axles at around 600hp range...
