Starting to piece together a turbo kit.....
hey guys/gals. 95 gsr here with 60k. Im pretty new to turbo. The turbo I've been looking at is the t3/t4 or the t3/to4e. Im not really sure about the specs yet. Time is not an option for me so i will be pieceing this kit together slowly. I was wondering if you guys had any opionions on the two turbo's i listed. I would like to have as much hp on my stock motor as possible and have it still be safe. I would like boost to come in at 4 to redline so i will not hit it during daily driving.
Ive been really considering this turbo, what are your thoughts?
T04E Compressor: 0.70 A/R, "57" trim, 2.23" inducer
center section: oil cooled, DYNAMIC SEAL, STD shaft
T3 Turbine: 0.63 A/R, "STD" trim, 1.898" exducer, STANDARD T3 FLANGE!
Will that suit my needs??
Any other tips you can give me, ive been searching this board for about a month now

Re: Starting to piece together a turbo kit..... (Skelly)
That is one of the optimal turbos for your setup. It depends what your HP goal is though. If you're staying under 300whp, a T28 would be nice too. Faster spool time, and you will see higher torque #'s.
Unless I'm a complete idiot and don't know what I'm talking about, which is possible.

Re: Starting to piece together a turbo kit..... (Hoosier Daddy)
I think the turbo you listed is a little overkill for your goals.
t3/t4 57 trim .60/.63 ar's is what you need.
Go to cheapturbo.com they sell good turbo's cheap. I bought mine there.
the precision lineup is nice too, more pricey. AN SC61 should be good.
I have a pretty stock GSR, boost starts around 3200 and is full boost at 4500 rpms @10lbs
