B16a2 turbo sizing question - Sell it or keep it?
The motor is a b16a2 (2000 Si).
I'm putting together a turbo kit and I currently have a Garrett T3/T04E 57 Trim .48 a/r 60 turbo.
I'm debating if I should sell the turbo because from what I've researched it will stop pulling ~ 7000 rpm. If I do sell it I plan on getting a Garrett T3/T04E 57 Trim .63 a/r
Would you sell it or just keep it?
Thanks

.48 is kinda small for a B16. if you sell it i highly recommend not getting another 57 trim but a 50 trim. i dont know where this 57 trim fad came from but a 50 trim is a better turbo.

yes, you should sell it and get a bigger trim like sc-61 it will do a better job
