Turbo questions?! What should I do?
I am about ready to upgrade my turbo and I am wondering what I should get.
setup:
stock block lsvtec w/ arp head and rod bolts
crower valvetrain, B16 cams
AEBS intake manifold w/ 65mm TB
InlinePRO T4 manifold dual drilled for T3
2.5 charge pipes, 31x13x3 intercooler.
3" DP and exhauast.
Ebay T70 84a/r exhaust v/band divided housing T3 flange.
I am wondering if I should look for a T4 flange undivided turbo or stick with the t3 flange?
I am wanting it to spool a little better and have heard that the divided housing only really works with twin scroll manifolds. Anyone with more experience please help!
Thanks

Re: Turbo questions?! What should I do?
Get bigger cams to start. I'm not to sure about the ebay turbo though. To each's own. Bigger cams will help you spool a little faster and increase horses if you're tuned right. Don't forget to get some fuel upgrades as you will need it. As for the t3 vs the t4 I don't have a certified opinion as I have not read about (dyno #'s) nor seen the difference. Good luck on the build and happy boostin'!!!

Get a set up typeR cams. and lose the ebay turbo. you can keep the t3 flange. no need for t4 for your setup. There are many turbo's to choose from. what is your budget. how much do you wanna spend. that will give us a range to choose from.. Also whats your hp goal.. i see you are only running stock block so.

Re: Turbo questions?! What should I do?
I am saving my money for a much nicer and more efficient turbo now. Hopfully I will find a
used precision turbo I want otherwise I will be buying a Master Power turbo. They are
affordable and I know that they are nice turbos. For power I am looking for around 350-
370 range until I get a sleeved block. I just want to see if anyone has any experience
when changing from a t3 flanged turbo to a t4 of a similar size.
