for the money, whats the best affordable t3/t4 turbo you could get? im shootin for a reliable 300whp on a b18b1. 15-20 psi. (stock sleeves, forged pistons, eagle rods, a/m valvetrain. i want it to spool around 3500 rpms. any suggestions for a turbo/trim for this application?

 

garrett 50trim will get you there. quick spool good for 300. not much more after that tho.just go with a 57trim. good for 400hp and not a lot of money. if you have a built motor why waste money on a small turbo. spend the cash and get something worth buying. that way you can make 300 and even 400. without changing things.

 

cool, ya i definately want room for improvement, i dont want to max out the turbo i get, i want to be able to tune for more boost and power when the time is right...(P.I.R. track nights?!? lol). anyone else?

 

50 trim is the turbo you need.

 

your from oregon?

I have a ebay t3/to4e .63 exhaust .50 ar on my ls-t made 314whp pretty easy and spools about were you want yours too. but Im pretty sure it wouldn't make past 340-350ish. plenty of power for my little car though.

 

hows it holding up? no burning oil, or bad seals or cracks? if so, i might try one out while i save for a big garrett or presicion... where you from? id like to check your set up. how much did that set you back?

 

As stated above, get a Garrett T3/TO4e, 50 or 57 trim.

 

holding up good so far. I had some setbacks because I bought a used motor that got a rod knock after 3 days of running it. no burning oil, you have to make sure you run a oil restrictor. and I can show you a link of the sell that I bought mine from, def feels alot better quality than my old ebay turbo I had on my sohc (when I bought it it already had shaft play... alot)

although a garrett is never a bad option it all depends on your budget.

Im into my whole kit around 650, with injectors and a 3 bar map.

and Im from salem.

 

personaly id go sc61 or 6262 in that range sumwhere

 

hey would you mind pm me the name of the ebay seller for that as well?

thx!
