Blew the shit outa my HKS 2540 the last day so in a bit of a pickle of what ta run next. Unsure whether ta go to a smaller turbo with less lag or go something silly like a top mount. Have the option there of a XS Power topmount. Just curious as ta what people feel is the best turbo ta go with and where I could purchase.

Depends on what you want noel, when i was researching getting one most people were suggesting the 2871r..Shane O'Sullivan was able to supply one brand new from turbo dynamics for a great price too.
