How is your spool for t3/t04e 57 trim .48 a/r on GSR engine?
When do you start spooling and when do you reach 7-8 psi boost?
Anyone with t3 60 trim? (.60 a/r compressor .48 a/r turbine)

On my LS, I had a t3/t4 62 and 57 trim and it was full spool by roughly 3400 rpms at 7.5 lbs. running off the Tial wg spring. With the size you are looking at, it should be full spool fairly quick. Mine also pulled all the way to red line without and flat spots. I would recommend it to any LS or GSR motor!!

I was using a t3/t04b .60 a/r intake and .48 a/r exhaust. I reached 7 psi somewhere around 4-4.5k rpm running a 2.5 open downpipe.
Hows the setup coming along?

My setup is done for t3 .48/.42 a/r. I got fun quick spool (6-7 psi @2500 rpm) but it's too small past 6k rpm. I'm researching bigger turbo and reading compressor maps.
Most likely I'll go with T3 60 trim .60 a/r compressor .48 a/r turbine side.
Considering t3/t04e in question.

We are running a T3 60a/r cold and 63 a/r hot and it spools fast on a stock ls. around 2500-3000 we have full boost and it pulls to redline. in a GSR tho i think it might die out uptop. so the T3/T4 may be your best bet for 7-8lbs and still have room to grow if you wanted.

im going to be running turbonetic's t3 super60, im hoping it will make power up to 7k, its got a stage 2 turbine wheel and 3" inlet as options from a standard t3 super60.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, anyone else?
This is a typical drag kit, so let me ask, is anyone runnign drag kit turbo on their GSR? (I know there are lots of you guys out there)

For the GS-R, you may want to think of something a little more midrange.

Manifold design has a HUGE impact on spool time. Two turbo GSRs, both stock motors, both 3" DPs, one with 2.5" exhaust, one with 3" exhaust, both .63 A/R hotside 60trim T3/04E.
GSR with Peakboost manifold spools turbo to 7psi by ~4800-4900 RPM with 3" DP / 3" exhaust
GSR with cheap spark racing style manifold spools turbo to 7psi by ~3400-3600 RPM with 3" DP / 2.5" exhaust
Comparable tuning on both.
Both hold torque flat from spool point to redline.
Responsiveness of GSR w/ cheap manifold miles better than peakboost.
Other variables to consider.

I guess I am trying to negotiate between spool time and top end power. My goal is only 250 whp at the most (all stock internal) so I think this is doable efficiently with these choices.

That's new information to me. Thanks!
I am using revhard manifold, 2.5" dp, 2.5" hi flow cat, and stock exhaust (upgrade later)
