    Hey im was looking on zzp today at some of their turbo parts and noticed they had a bullseye turbo for only $749.99. I don't know too much about turbos so... Would this turbo put out more boost than a m90 with 3.4" pulley? Also what kinds of supporting mods would it take to run a bullseye turbo (different than what was needed for a 3.4"). Last it looks a lot smaller than the one on 3800performance and it's actually reasonably priced being about 2300 bucks cheaper, what's the big difference between the two? This is something that im really interested in. Thanks

    - with a turbo setup you have a boost controller. you can make whatever boost level you want (also depends on what size wastegate spring is installed), but depending upon the efficiency mapping of the turbo you might be pushing it too hard or not hard enough.

    - you cannot put a turbo on your car without a whole slew of other things to go along with it. it is not a bolt on part.

    - the turbo is cheaper because its more of a low end turbo. high end turbos can cost well over $3k for just the turbo.
