Well a SC60 is a T3 T04E. I'd hate for you to buy a new SC60 and then find out you had the same exact turbo. If you measure your wheels I can tell you what you have.

Don't just say SC61 for the cool Honda-Tech factor. Figure out what kind of power goals you're looking for and then decide on a turbo. Not everyone needs the kind of power an SC61 will make.

I couldn't agree more. make sure that you figure what your mission is for the car as well as your HP goals. A larger turbo doesn't necessarily mean a bigger one is needed for your purpose. Don't just think to yourself "I wanna be fast", look at what you're trying to accomplish with the car, and stick with it. Simply saying that an SC61 is in order is not only silly, but shows how bandwagonish people can be.

im not really looking for a bigger turbo...id just like to have something thats spools up a little faster. Right now i only plan on hitting maybe 260-270hp on my stock b16...then about 320-330hp on a mildly built lsvtec motor.

stick with the one you got. save that money either to upgrade internals or tuning. 12-15 psi you should hit your goal. me im hoping to get 250 ish outta my 57 trim .60 .63

No need for an SC61 at that power level. It will spool slower.
