Ok well obviously the sc61 will make more power but thats not exactly what im getting at. An yes i did search but got no good answers out of which turbo is better. Basically i have a stoke bore/stroke gsr with a ramhorn manifold,3"downpipe,blox intake manifold,9.1 compression,pte 600hp IC... blah blah blah an so on. An i was trying to decide on which turbo is best for me sc44 or sc61. My goal is 300-330hp on low boost 9-12psi . An 400 or a bit more on highboost whatever that takes. Then ill possibly move up in power after getting used to car. Now im looking for decent tq out of the setup an i dont mind waiting till 5200rpms for fullboost. So either i can have a turbo that will make good numbers on such low boost,but not have good tq. Or i can have a turbo that will take more boost to make the same power as the sc61,an not have as much topend but have good tq. Also for anyone who actually has a sc61 on there stock bore/stroke gsr, what kinda spool times are you looking at? So basically what i am asking is which is better for my goal?

by the way this is the smallest sc61 which is the sc6152e

aaahh...what motor guy? i got an sc44 on an h22a, makes full boost 10psi at about 4200...everythings stock..bitch rails...tuned on uberdata..

If you max goal is 400whp then definitely go with the sc44. You will be much happier with the spool times on the street. Some people might argue this but the sc44 will offer superior spool times and will be much more fun, imo. I had the same turbo on a built ls with a built head tuned with aem and it made 373whp on 18psi on pump gas with only 11.8 degrees of advance!!!!! Go with the sc44!

Damn that was quick....But keep coming with more replies!....Also this is for a 1994 gsr motor which the setup will be for.

did it have enoff huff to go to 8000rpm you think or where you reving it that high being built ??? and where you running cam gears ??? i dont mean to thead jack , just want to keep this good info coming

sc44 no doubt

Since you already have something done with the motor. So SC61 gonna save you $$$ down the road

SC61 is overkill. With a small intercooler and charge piping, 2.5" downpipe and a log manifold on a shitty tune, I made 335whp at 15psi. Using your setup and a more competent tuner, 400+whp should be no problem.

my SC44 can make 400whp on my b16 no problem with plenty of headroom. SC61 is overkill IMO.

Damn.....looks like the sc44 is winning, oh yeah whats the most power made on the sc44...knowing me ill prolly go to like 450whp an stop at that since i have stock sleeves

If i could hump my sc44 i would, repeatedly, in da butt

but seriously i have a sc44 on my stock block stock head ls/vtec, b18b block and gsr head, hit full boost at around 3900-4000, pulls hard as f*** all the way to 8000rpm i am very happy, i would imagine im around 240-250hp range on 7psi

not too sure on my sc44, i'm figuring that would be rather uncomfortable...but i would definatly hump that chick u got in ur avatar, repeatedly, in da butt!! lol

mabey an sc44 is overkill

My cylinder head was fully built with crower springs/retainers and a crap set of OBX CAMS!!! Revved it to 7800 rpm all day long!! It was a blast. And yes, i did have the cams dialed in on the dyno at Tim Switzers shop in Elyria Ohio. Tim you're the man! You can see the dyno vid at switzerperformanceinnovation.com if ya like.
