Turbo Comparison
What would be the difference between a:
T3/T4 and a T3/T40E if they both were to have the exact same specs? Will one spool faster or create anymore power then the other?

Re: Turbo Comparison (Vtec92Civic)
If its the same specs then its just the same turbo. The "E" tells you its an E housing with an E wheel which is easy to recognize cause it will usually only have 6 blades for the compressor wheel. The other popular t3/t4 uses a "B" housing wich is usually not much different in appearance, although sometimes can use a different looking backplate then the E. THe B compressor wheels will most often use a 7 blade compressor wheel.
Usually an E turbo will flow more air hence more power, where the B doesnt but most times is more efficient.
Hope this clears some stuff up for you.
A good site to look at for specs, differences, etc is turbonetics.com
