Hallo,

a friend of mine want to order his turbo in the next days and he is
unsure about the exact model to take.

GT35R or SC63

the hp goal is something in the 500-600 whp region.
the gt35r is very expensive so he thought taking the sc63 but don't know how
big the difference in spool up would be.

engine would be a 2L fully build b16

i know thats not much info but hope to get some comments.

Thanks
Malte

 

He could get the sc61 instead of the sc63, will spool quicker and can make great power in that range.

 

go with the sc61 and use the extra money for something else maybe tuning

 

yea go with the sc61 turbo, such a great turbo in which I plan on getting and selling my t3t4 .50 trim.

 

t3/t67 seems to be a really popular turbo right now.

 

oh yea forgot about the t3/67

 

all the sc turbos go for the same price.

 

Great topic! Why the SC61 over the GT35R? Price only or does teh SC61 spool similar to the ball bearing GT35R?

SC63 is more expensive because it's big shaft.

The ball bearing makes a bit of difference, but they are very similar given the same exhaust housing. I think going SC61 over the 35R is a nice way to save 500 bucks that could be better spent elsewhere.

 

on a recent thread. the gt35r took about 300rpm longer to reach full boost. but it made more topend power.

im debating between a pt61 or a pt71 at this point

The 35R took 300 RPM's longer because it was a .82 A/R hot side, vs. a .63 A/R hot side on the SC61.

A PT61 and a PT71 are a pretty huge jump to decide between. The 61 is like a 630 WHP turbo, and the 71 is like an 830 WHP turbo with a lot more lag.

 

yea i know. im leaning towards the pt71.

84.5mm sleeved ls/vtec. manley rods, cp pistons, fully built,ported and polished gsr head. Im probably gonna be running the car on c16 all of the time and my goals are around 700plus on c16

PT-71 is a nice turbo, try T4/T67

 

t3/t67 730whp on 31lbs https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1279321

dont think u really need a pt-71. try a t4/t67

 

hmm, i might try the t3/t67, but how much more lag is there with the H.O option?

 

35r is by far the most impressive turbo ive dealt with... if you have the money, give it a shot

 

think i have enough money for a gt35r.

i have about 6k to get my motor done (turbo, mani, wg, dp, charge pipng, intake mani, injectors, tb, hondata -475 (fully unlocked), fuel pump, lines rail and regualtor and finally painting the car)

 

There was a big descusion about this the other day here on honda-tech and had a bunch of dynos...

enjoy!

If you have the loot , Go with the GT35R. I love this turbo!

I have a Hybrid version of the 35R( My own concocksion), My dyno runs start at 4000 rpms and I hit full boost by 4800 rpm ( 20+psi) with a fantasic power band.

 

the 35R is a very nice turbo....I would pick it over any of the ones above
