Default Didn't make what I wanted on the dyno, need advice on BIGGER TURBO...B16 people!

I dyno tuned last Saturday with my DRAG III kit and made 294whp & 234lb torque. It's all on a B16A2 fully built motor with a fully built head. It has Weisco 8.8:1 pistons. I recently was told by Turbonetics that it will not make very much power past 20psi, and they were right. Now I need advice on what to get. Turbonetics recommened that I get a T3/T4E with a .63 AR, and a stage 3 wheel. They said that would be best for my setup for a daily driver/weekend racer. I want to make 400 or more to the wheels, and they said I should be able to make that at 18-20 psi. I can get this for $701.60.
So what do you guys think.....????????

I have been building my engine for a while now and I am just starting to get the turbo related parts (just got my Spearco 28x10.5x3 intercooler and TiAL BOV). I would recommend either a Garrett GT30, Garrett 3040 or a Precision SC616370. The first two are expensive but well worth it.

Yeah i know....why did you stop at 20 psi? They say you could take it as high as 30 psi! I don't know, i'm still thinking about what I want to do. I just got a Quaife and want to install that before anything else!

So any other advice on which turbo? Come on B16 guys, let me know!

i dont think it was the same turbo.
is the drag kit for the gsr a T04E while for the b16 its a T04B .
time for you to upgrade to a t3/to4e 60 trim (.63 a/r) ..
but you know what. I think you could benefit from the 60-1.(t3/60-1 .63a/r)
it would kick some major nuts.
goodluck

you would make alot better #'s with some higher compression, 8:8:1 is pretty low.

I hope to make 280 @ 11psi on a stock b16 with my rev hard kit.

Yes I am running a T3/T4B, not E like TYGSR! I asked about a T3 60-1, but Turbonetics said I would benefit from the T3/T4E with a stage V wheel!

I would go with a Precision SC44 .60/.63 if I were you.

It will be good for 450whp within it's efficency range.

I think a t3/t04e 60trim, stage 3 wheel, .63 a/r turbine would work fine. You can easily get 400whp outta it. I also had the t3/t4b but couldnt make much power outta it so i upgraded to the t3/t4e. However, i didnt really get to fully tune with my new turbo. I got outta the scene and just recently sold everything

I would go with a t3 60-1, It think that you will notice a little more power when you go to higher boost levels with that. The t3/t4 is nice too, but you know how it is, when you go up in boost you only want to go higher. I am doing almost the same setup...I wonder what you would do with 9.5:1 or 9:1 comp pistons?? Anyone know? Jus wondering...good luck man

that 60-1 is a monster but im sure you are running a fmu, if you dont have 440 injectors you need them or 450 dsm a big *** fuel pump and hodata s200b or a uberchip Ive been hearing some good **** about that to run what you waant you need a lot of fuel and making sure that your mixtures are correct. good luck that is still a lot out of 1.6

his motor is built somewhat..i hope he has some sort of fuel management.
anyways..since he IS running 20 psi or so.... he WILL BENEFIT from a t3/60-1.

T3/60-1 stage V turbine wheel, if you have extra displacement or high rev limit then .82 A/R if not then go with a .63 A/R turbine side.

800cc injectors and a .82 60-1 for me

Did you have the block decked and the head resurfaced at all? Just wondering what your compression really is, probably a little higher than the 8.8 if you've had headwork done and sleeves.

Yes I did have the deck resurfaced. The pistons actually sit a tiny bit above the deck, but not as much as the JE's did which I had before.

cheapturbo.com....stage 3 wheel 57 trim .48 turbine + .60 compressor with 5bolt downpipe pattern....= $599.00 flat....I don't think .63 turbine housing cost any much more

those were deffinitly not bad numbers for a b16 depending on the amount of boost you were running.

i would recomend a t3/t4E .63 for street and strip!!

I just picked up a SC34 with the .63 stage 3 turbine from Precision Turbo (www.precisionte.com). It's a MONSTER compared to my .50 compressor wheel'd E model that I had before.

I'd suggest Precision for 3 reasons:

360* thrust bearings are STANDARD
5 bolt exhaust housings are STANDARD
and it looks like they hand ported the turbine housing... this thing has NO casting marks, it's smooth as a baby's bottom inside!!!

for Precision Turbo's!!!
