i have a gsr im building to a 2.0 l looking to make 420-450whp using the least amount of boost lmk what turbo would be best from the sc61 trims etc.

Boostfed

I would do an SC6152E or even the SC6131E for your hp goals sir .63 A/R . SC6152E preferable that way you can still grow more, make much more hp later too

gabrielle

is this turbo better than what i got now i have stage 3 garrett 60-1 63ar

gabrielle

still wainting on a answer

Well, just to keep this on the first page, the SC61 has better wheels (both sides), and a 360 degree thrust bearing. The turbine housing is also made by Precision, and is said to be a slightly better flowing unit than the t3 housing, even though they have the same A/R.

Hopefully someone with some good, first hand knowledge will comment!

yeah the sc6152e comes with a stage 5 wheel. used this turbo on a fully built LS motor 85mm and it made 403whp on 18psi... i plan to use this same turbo on my built gsr that will be done very soon.... its a great turbo.

the sc61e is a nice turbo, ive had one on my car for 2yrs

made 634@25 psi on a built 81.5-stock head gsr with cams


i also had jason(st00pid) tune it

Just a stupid question unrelated to the thread, but wth do you do with 600+ hp in a FWD car?

Or if you are a really good driver and have your car set up right run 9's

I haven't been around any really high power FWD cars, and it's just hard for me to imagine hooking up the front tires with that much power and the adverse weight transfer. Interesting to know it can really be done!

Sorry for the off track!

I am curious about the exhaust side too, but I was told that the "S" cover was worth about 50 HP over the "E" cover, and there wasn't a significant down side to it (?). The S cover does look bigger, but it really doesn't extend outside of the diameter of the heads of the bolts that hold the E cover on.
