I think all of us need big turbo! Who's with me on this one?
Looking for the sickest turbo set-up let see the suggestions.

Nah I don’t eat in the car. I’m not so starved that I cannot dine in or wait until I get home. I don’t do drinks in my car either. I do have drinks but no food in my ghetto daily driver. Haha

I feel my headlights are fine (since I don’t drive it in the dark anyhow), so I am certainly not dropping a stack on alpharex for what seems to be no more than a flex.

I always get a smile out of the two sound effects you use 😃

I’ve only heard great things about the Kuro and Kuro+ Turbos from 27 Won, especially for maintaining relatively quick spool. I’ve also read lots of people saying that cams aren’t really worth upgrading.

I heard what you said but Kuro turbo is my recommendation. That will get you exactly what you said you wanted.
no need for cams yet
A lot of people are recommending Kuro. Based on the reviews this turbo preforms well also.

If you wanna go at JDM, then HKS TURBO !
Beautiful turbos but bigger money and I would have to do all the fabrication and plumbing myself but definitely worth it in the end.

This seems to be what everyone is recommending and suggesting.

I think you said you wanted the Spoon turbo earlier in the year. Is that one still on your short list?
The spoon turbo might not make the list anymore because of price and the output isn't enough for me but you never know.

legit over kill haha
This is when you would want cams. No drop in turbo needs cams. So many k series have ran 8's with stock cams. Like others have said kuro turbo is incredible. I thought I may need a bigger turbo till the ethanol came into play. Install your fuel system first. Then get regular kuro and run e40-60. You will spool similar to stock and be able to hit 160 quicker than most cars on the road. If you need more just build that gtr.
