Hey im trying to decide on with turbo i should run with? Got a 2.0ltr with 9.2:1 compression, A head that flow pretty damn good, just want to run high 300hp for DD. Run low 11's at the track.

 

the GT series turbos are better.

Id go with the one you mentioned, or an SC61.

 

Get an SC61. It has the GT40 wheel in it. Do not get a SC53!

gt is better but precision = cheaper.
if you can live with some longer lag go with precision.

 

It isnt better, its the same thing. That is like saying Honda=good, Acura=Better.
The GT relates to the family of wheels. The good thing that Garrett has is the ball bearing. But to be released by precision soon too made by garrett.

well bb would imply better, now wouldnt it


what is the pricing gonna look like for the precision ball bearing units?

 

I need a SC61....

I agree with Art here. Also, go with the SC61

 

when is precision coming out with BB? Whats the reason for getting a SC61 and not a SC53?
What kinda spool can i expect? my head flow pretty good up top so. trying to get a good all around turbo.

 

actually acura is better

 

^ YEAH RIGHT ! So seriously Art, I've heard you speak of them coming out, but it this gonna wind up being like an Endyn supercharger thing

The SC53 has a 60-1 compressor which is less effcient and flow less than the SC61. You make more power and have the same exact, if not better, boost response with the SC61 and a T350 .76 trim(aka stage 5 wheel).

im surprised they even sell the sc53...

 

Get the SC61 it will supply you with plenty of topend for you and amazing spool up for a turbo of its size.

 

What rpm will it hit full boost on B18C with log style mani and full 3" exhaust ?

 

well maybe i think im going to run with a GT35R.

Roughly 5k with the right tune...

 

i thoght the GT has DUAL ball bearings and the SC thats coming out will only have one ball bearing...

 

SC61, AKA GT35R has a dual BB.

there ya go dude

 

Got it

 

Anything that we come out with will have the Garrett dual ball bearing CHRA. The only single ball bearing on the market now is the Turbonetics.

We are no longer recommending the SC-53. The SC-61 is definitely more turbo for the money at the same price.

So how good are the SC54 turbos? I have a fully built B18C1 with 84.5mm pistons, eagle rods headwork etc.

 

question about the Garrett turbos?
Do they have the Garrtett making on the turbos?
Also i remember reading somewhere that HoneyWell bought them out is that right?
