Need help sizing turbo for B18C build
I was running a B18C1 with stock internals and a .84ar and a .50 compressor xs power turbo (I know they are crap, just to answer that). I blew a cylinder sometime ago I believe, I was running the motor at 8-10 psi tuned on chrome on rc550s. Compression test was 4321 200 200 200 100.
I'm pulling the motor now and rebuilding with Arias pistons 9:1 and Eagle rods. I want to get a new turbo because I think the old one is blown. I'm looking to make 450-550whp.
The turbos I am trying to choose from are a t3/t04S .63ar 70 trim compressor (60 trim wheel)
OR
A T04B for less money. .70ar 70 trim compressor, S trim compressor wheel.
I'm used to hitting full boost after 5000 rpm. I'd really like to make that 450-550 whp goal while still having some more usable power in my powerband. Which would be better for my setup, or am I going down the wrong road? Money is an issue (i.e. no SC61 or GT35R). Thanks.

Whats your budget for a turbo??? I think a 60-1 would be good for you, You can find them pretty cheap too, I sold one that was brand new in classified fro 500 a month ago

Thanks Snach,
but my original question wasn't answered, unless slow meant to get the T3/T04S:
