Default SC or T3/T4?

hey all, Im setting up all the parts for my turbo LS integra. Its gonna be a street/everyday car. I was just wondering which turbo you guys would recommend a SC34, SC50, or a T3/T4?

I want something that spools quick but doesnt have too much lag and still have a decent top end.
Thanks all

Search for "precision", look at Arturbo's and Direp's posts. Read Maximum Boost. Go on now...

well that also depends on what spec T3/T4. Just saying T3/T4 is like saying "i drive a car"

ok I did a little more research on this (sorry I shoulda before I posted). I am looking at these turbos...

Garrett T3/T4 .63 ar
Turbonetics T3/T4 .70 ar
Precision SC34
Precision SC50

I am not looking for numbers or track times. I am looking for a good quality turbo, with not too bad of a lag, quick spool and decent top end. Thanks all

if you want quick spool, i would go with the .48 housing with whatever turbo you end up getting. possibly even a staight t3 with super 60 compressor. or a smaller t04e.

Silver_Nteg,
If you care to give us a call, I'd be happy to give you some choices. There's often more to talk about than what you can discuss by e-mail. There are a lot of good products out there. thaThink about what kind of hp you want, whether this is at the crank or at the wheels, etc. We're open 8 to 5 CST Monday thru Friday.

I mean i do want a somewhat quick spool (in boost at around 4,2-4,5 rpm). What i do not want is a turbo that will act like a 16G or an 18G that come with greddy kit. Quick spool yes. Nice top end? NOPE!!! I dont like how its a quick spool but it loses power fast. So based on that what turbo do you guys think i should go with. I am also up for reading any articles if you guys send me a link.
Thanks

PM a street address to me and I'll send you some info. You're local to us, so it shouldn't take very long for you to get it.

Do you already have an exhaust manifold with a T3 flange? Or a T25 flange? Or do you have one at all?

Are you looking for a turbo only? Or a kit? Or are you trying to upgrade a kit?

Help me out here.
