Thumbs up Pt88?

Alot of people have gone fast with a pt88 turbo, easily in the 150+mph range from what i see.
I also see alot have changed turbo's!
Anyhow was it just because the (original version)pt88 is "oldschool" now or was there reasonable gains had with a turbo change?
I ask because i am in the market and thought it would be a good idea to get some opinions fromt the folks that have been there and done that!
Thanks in Advance!!

The old 88 is still good piece. It depends on what your goals are really. The new TSO car my friend brought to BG went 150mph on the 4th pass off the trans brake with only 20# of boost. I know it's got 160mph potential.
