Which turbo do i run??
Hey Guys!
Just wanting some opinions for a car we're doing for a customer here... Car has a b18c with 9:1 cp's on stock sleeves... I'm thinking t3/04 or gt2871r
Would anybody else have any other suggestions? Customer expects 350hp+
cheers in advance

i would suggest a gt3076r. it could make that power level easily and still have room to make more power in the future if the customer decides too.

We did 440whp at 22psi on a t3/t4 57 trim. The motor had gsr cams, stock manifold and 81.5mm bore.
The TR3030R sounds promising if the spool is faster or the same as a 57 trim and cost isn't drastically inflated. It's making the same power at 3psi less with less adianatic heating.

The TR3030R is significantly more expensive than the 57 trim turbocharger, but that's because its very responsive, steel ball-bearing cartridge, and designed for the circuit and high endurance racing.
You're not going to get good responsiveness without spending few extra bucks
I think this is 1158's build

I loved my SC34 but it just didn't make the power I was looking for. With the TR3030R I still have room to grow if I get bored with 450.
Oh yeah, I want to add. The TR3030R was worth every penny and then some. I've had a few people in the car with a lot of turbo experience and they think it's one of the best all around turbos (response/power) they have encountered.

Re: Which turbo do i run??
sorry for responding so late and thanks for all the replies! Basically, 350whp is the goal, gas here is 95octane and the motor is stock sleeved b18c with 9:1cp's...
As far as i know, all i can tell is the turbo this guy has given us is turbonetics t3/t4 and its .63 a/r.... Is this good enough for our goals? The head is standard itr

Re: Which turbo do i run??
i agree. what kind of shop or tuner do you call yourselves? sorry but truth is 98% of people on this forum are inexperienced teenagers and your asking for their opinion?
please do us all a favor and tell us the name of your shop or who you are and location so no one makes the mistake of bringing their car to you. honestly if you dont know how to properly size a turbo to a specific engine/power goal then you dont need to be modifying cars imho or belong anywhere near them for that matter.

Re: Which turbo do i run??
we all know he will want to turn the boost up in the future so my vote goes to the Garrett gt3076r. Best bang for the buck turbo out there for the street for under 500whp. Super quick spool.
