t3/t4e .50 a/r...good enough?
okay, heres the deal...i got my turbo in. it was supposed to be a 60 a/r turbo, but on the housing it is stamped with "50 a/r" so i am guessing it is a 50 a/r compressor. up to how much horsepower can this support? i am using this turbo on my b16a and i was planning to boost like 10-12 psi daily...how much power can i put out with this turbo? oh yah, if the ad was correct, it is a 57 trim turbo.

you should be more than fine at 12 lbs. But i have to warn you. The stock b series have problems running over 10-11 lbs on a stock motor. Sure some guys claim this and that on a stock motor, But If you want it to last. you nee to do it right. Recommended max is 10 lbs of boost, That's somewhere in the range of 280-300 wheel power. Your fueling needs need to be completely delt with by using a more correct method (hondata not some "afc hack" which always has issues)
But your turbo is most likley of support 22 lbs of boost and 425-450 wheel power
