I have been trying to choose a turbo for my ls for some time now and i think i've narrowed it down. My hp goal is 250whp and my 1/4 mile goal is low 13's high 12's.

Which would work best for my application? a t3 super 60 with a .63 a/r or a t3/t4 with a .57 trim and .50 a/r compressor .63 a/r turbine?

O and please don't direct me to the ls-t thread, i've already read through a lot of it

for 250whp at a low psi on pump gas do the t3/to4e.... the t3 maxes out around 300whp so you are really pushing it at higher boost levels

how would boost response be on an ls with a t3/t04e? and what trim would you recommend?

A t3 would work fine, but I would go with a t3/t4 because you will want more power eventually.

57 trim flows the best

so a t3/t4 57trim would be a good choice?

e.... the wheels and housings are different... e flows much more, it took my buddy 18 psi to break 300whp on a built 1.7l b16

i had the same debate with sum friends and read many forums. i ended up with the T3/T04e 57 trim compressor .63ar turbine

t3 super 60 on my b20 made 262 WHP 254 torque at 14 psi. just to give you an idea. it was a monster turbo for what it was
