is this turbo too big?
i have a stock b18c1 right now and i hav ea t28 turbo on it. But i might be having problems with the seals, im not sure but if i were to replace it i wanted to replace it with a t3 60-1 w/ .63 A/R Turbine.
COMPRESSOR SPECS:T04S
.70 A/R HOUSING
60 TRIM WHEEL
TURBINE SPECS:
.63 A/R HOUSING
HIGH FLOW 76 TRIM WHEEL
But on my stock block i will only be able to run like 7psi..,, but i want to get this turbo so i don thave to upgrade it in the future when i get a built block. so how do u think this turbo will perform at only 7psi? is it way too big? Will it make a decent powerband? thanx guys

edit: you have a honda, its a 1.8L, you dont need a huge turbo even at 15psi...

i have a t28 right now, no way thats gonna handle 15psi and not blow hot air. and im looking for a turbo that will be able to handle like 22+psi at the track so i want a decently sized turbo. i jsut want something that i wont have to worry abotu upgrading later

Your engine is capable of handling 22 PSI but you're only running 5.5 PSI?

no my engien cant handle 15psi, if you read my original post then u would see i hav ea stock block right now. but i dont want to have to upgrade my turbo again when i build my block. Okay, you got me, a t28 CAN hold 15 psi but im not confident in my wastegate keeping that at 15psi since ints internal, and it wont be blowing as much cfm as a larger turbo. and i was jsut askign about this turbo because it seems people like to run it on their cars with built blocks pushing high boost, so i just wanted to know how it would work at low boost if i have to do that for awhile. thanx

Just curious as to the specs of your T28. i.e. A/Rs, Wheel trims, or what it is off of. Thanks. You also realize that a manifold with a T25 flange won't work w/ a T3 flanged turbo...
