Difference between these two very similar turbo's?
I did a search on this but still need some info
Whats the diifference between a garret t3/t04e turbo .63 ar and 60 trim and a preision sc61 with the same specs. I'm looking for power out put, spool times etc.
Thanks for any help or input. I know the sc61 has a 360 DEGREE THRUST BEARING and the other only has a 270, which would be better for keeping the turbo cool and last longer, but what other factors are making more and more people lean toward the sc61.

Yeah I tried a search on both, but there isn't much I've seen with the power differences between the two. I have heard and seen that the sc61 spools faster and have shown bigger gains in hp at smaller boost. And I do beleive they do come with the gt wheels as well.
Thanks keep it coming

well, first off a garret 60 trim is really nothing like an SC61. They both use two completely different compressor wheels and have different power characteristics. the 60 trim uses a 60 trim compressor wheel and an SC61 uses a GT40 compressor wheel. The 60 trim is much smaller and much less efficient. The GT40 wheel will pretty much make more power @ any boost level over the 60 trim but it will suffer from a little more lag. not much, and its mostly caused because the gt40 wheel is only available w/ a stage 5 exhaust side. max power for 60 trim is about 500hp and gt40 is about 600hp @ the wrong wheels
