can any one help (turbo advise)????

hi all im new to the drifting seen but have been playing wiv me car for the last 2 years. i have a r33 gtst with all the mods that i need to be able now to add a uprated turbo. i was thinking of useing some sort of hybrid turbo but was just wondering if any one could tell me wot one i should go for. at the min i have uprated fuel pump, coolder spark plugs, split fire coil packs, apexi air filter, apexi front mount, full nismo exhaust wiv turbo elbo and de-cat, blitz boost controller, apexi power fc and a excedy stage2 paddel clutch. it made 322bhp last weekend. so i would like a turbo and a set of 555cc injectors to finish it off.
can any one help????

there is a company that we use through work that build hybrid turbos and i spoke to them and they said that they could take mine away and fit it with t34 internals and i would cope up to 450bhp. as im in the trade they said they could do one of these for £495 would this be a good idea????

Standard Escort Cosworth T34/T35 (depends what they decide to call it today), good for 400, spools fast as fuck, bolts straight on, winner.

Dan Chapman had one on that R33GTST he had, so he can confirm it massively badass

you using a standard 33 turbo at the moment? I think Rising Sun Performance on the Skylines Owners forum can rebuild those, and would probably be perfect for what you're after..

Get on to RSP, (Rising Sun Performance) or the company you mentioned who can rebuild your turbo. With steel internals right? As thats what you want i believe, then RSP can map the standard ECU for your mods or advise you where to go from there if you're still not happy with the power..
Thats what i would recommend anyway, but there are several different turbos and tuners you could use to achieve what you're after
