Default turbo question

need a good turbo for a b16. Should I get T3,T3/04B or E. Basically I need a turbo that will give me a good power curve both mid and high end. Right now I am looking for about 15psi. I have an ACT clutch and JUN ultralight flywheel with a Quaife LSD. Will this setup hold 15psi with a block guard and Ross 9.5:1 pistons and eagle rods and a good fuel setup.

If you want decent low end, the T3 Super 60 works well on your engine. Another good choice would be the T04E 46 trim, but that one would have a little more lag and better top-end power. 15Psi should not be a problem with the built bottom end and 9.5:1 pistons. Good luck with whatever you decide to do!

anybody? would 440's be enough? Also, how much boost will the turbo give max and where in the power band would I start boosting with a T3/T04E 46 trim?

ive heard that 440s is enough for 300 hp. if you expect to do more than that with 15lbs... go with 550s

Yep, 550cc would be a good idea for your application.
